Same!

Henry too. (Gerrard, Giggs and Scholes get pretty damn close as well.) Looks like that's my top ten!

Iniesta would certainly be there or thereabouts for me as well but based very much on current form Id have to have Falcao pushing for that slot. Ibra's current scoring record too isn't to be sniffed at but being that its in a widely regarded weaker league it takes a little gloss from it.

As good as Falcao is he doesn't quite have everything to put him up there for me.

Rooney can score 30 goals a season but look at what else he can do.

Again I would agree, I think Falcao may be the best striker around right now, but I'm looking at all aspects and for me if Falcao is not getting the chances created then he does not have much to offer where Iniesta or Rooney can create, score and normally if they play well.. there teams win.

That could be my top ten also! Haha.

Been lucky to see so many world class players.

I think Iniesta is 3rd. IMO you can't say that Falcao is already better than Rooney because I think he has to prove it on a higher level first. But if he succeeds I rate him higher than Rooney.

Actually I hate it to rank players on a list
