I haven't had a proper look yet either, but I did notice that Ledley and Ginola are both included in the pircture on the front. I'll try to have a read through after work.

Essien was one of the best midfielders this league has seen. Yet he's not there and Phil Neville is??

So much wrong with this its untrue. Think they've mistaken headlines/fame for being a good footballer.

Patrice Evra, Sami Hyppia and Pablo Zabaleta comes just after Ledley King. Makes a mockery of the list.

No Defoe?! Seriously! With some that are there surely he has with his goal haul earned a place above some that are in there?

Surely Jaaskelainen deserves a shout, probably one of the most consistent keepers in the PL, could have taken David Batty's spot, as good as Silva and Toure are i cant fathom why they are so much higher than Cech, mental.

Hurts to think how high Ledley could've been if wasn't for the knees

Bale only 32? If he played at United he would have been top 10. How Suarez is 15 or so places higher is beyond me.

Can't believe I wasted time looking through this shit
