2010/2011 MID-SEASON RANKING

11th June:

The end of season 2010/11 start of season 2011/12 update is finished.

For anyone interested, there will be a marathon rundown presentation of the list here.

Once that's over with. The update will of course be posted right here.

June 9th:


Naturally I overdid it and ended up putting around 400 players in order, so the cut will be pretty brutal.

I can say that Aritz Aduriz the Valencia striker turned out to be the most unlucky one at the 301 spot dropping all of 77 places from the midseason ranks, and on that note I seriously doubt that he is even the biggest mover (whether it's up or down) but that's one of the few things I have left to do now. Keeping track of the exact change of all the placings and add it to the update.

July 10 I don't think I will have time to do much and probably not Sunday either (except maybe late) BUT let's say Saturday as the best case scenario and Monday as the absolute worst.

Almost there!


June 6th:

End of 2010/11 start of 2011/12 ranking of the 300 best players in the world update should be posted (very likely) later this week.

Also really hope gradually to be adding more text to the various players.

Thanks everyone for still visiting.

27th April:

One month later and even more changes+new entries to be made! The plan is to do an end of the season ranking which will at least stand the test of time until 2011/2012 is underway.

Some more individual writeups/updates or at least some 2010/2011 season resumes would also be nice, but let's see.


20th March 2011: There are already many changes to be made and an update is slowly coming along.

  1. Hi Bjørn, it's kitaristi0 from 2+2. You haven't been on the forums in quite a while so it's nice to see from your updates here that at least you're still alive. It's been pretty boring without you, a lot of the same tired arguments and not enough good football analysis. I hope you're just on a temporary hiatus and not gone for good, it would be a shame to lose another great poster after the likes of JaredL and others have already stopped posting. At least you're still working on the 300 list, that's good to see.

    Anyway, just dropping you this message to let you know I miss reading your posts and I hope to see you back on the forums soon.

    P.S. I was going through some of your old posts and noticed you even wrote about sumo wrestling at one point. Seriously, is there any sport you aren't an expert in?

  2. Hey Kitaristii0, thank you for your message. No I haven't decided to stop posting or anything, and I'm sure will do so again sooner rather than later.

    Cheers (and btw keep up the great posts yourself!)
