[robertmac43]

My roomate brought up this question the other day and it has had me thinking.

Behind Messi and Ronaldo, who has been the third best player over the past 10-15 years? I told him it would be different players at different times but I was interested in hearing what people on here's thoughts are.

Neymar, Lewa, Ibra, and Iniesta were the first names that popped into my head.

Neymar, Lewa, Ibra, and Iniesta were the first names that popped into my head.

Those are similar names to what i put forward.

 

[Havre]

Would take Modric over all of those. But there will never be a consensus here. Tells you something about how ridiculously good the two have been (as if we are not all aware).

 

[Vasilevskiy]

It's very difficult, if you take peak of somebody probably Neymar although Lewa, Iniesta and Robben have had insane seasons. I will also say De Bruyne but it's more a homer vote

 

[Evilo]

Can't see how it's not Neymar really.

 

[Juve]

Lord Higuaín

 

[JeffreyLFC]

Neymar or Neuer or Iniesta or Modric.

My vote would go to Iniesta.

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

If it's 10 years, it's probably Neymar.

If it's 15 years, I lean to Iniesta.

 

[AB13]

Neymar. Xavi, Zlatan and Iniesta are candidates though. If you just look at peak and not longevity, it is Neymar or Özil.

If it's 10 years, it's probably Neymar.

If it's 15 years, I lean to Iniesta.

This is actually exactly where my head went as well.
