FOOTBALL: PELE'S TOP 100 PLAYERS

thought tis was interesting, but still think some people dun deserve 2 b in e list. almost everyone in e list r still alive or currently playing. there is no categorization of eras or positions so it is veli general i would say. it is veli hard 2 compare player by player just like dat since e scenarios r different. anywayz, still think it is impressive 2 name e top 100 players of his opinion as a footie legend.
