A list with some controversies, a lot of presence cul\u00e9 and a Mbapp\u00e9 that has won a lot in little time<\/h2>

It remains clear that the greater surprise of the ranking can be who closes the podium, with Thierry Henry in this position. Although anybody can doubt of the talent and the impact of the French forward, the one who lived his last stage in the elite like player of the Bar\u00e7a, the information signals that his place is due to that that the French “revolutionised the position of the centrodelantero”, something that allows him advance, for example, to his compatriot Zinedine Zidane, the one who is considered like the best player Frenchman of the history.<\/strong><\/p>

Another of the controversies surely was the quotation of Neymar Jr. In the position 20, remaining by behind players like Kak\u00e1, Puyol, Sergio Bouquets or Karim Benzema. Kylian Mbapp\u00e9, by his part, surprises when appearing in the sixth stair, being a player that has much less path that any another name mentioned in the list. It is worthwhile also highlight the ‘command’ of Spain, France and Brazil in the list, as well as the 11 players that went through the Bar\u00e7a, already went formed or fichados.<\/strong><\/p> ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
