Have you seen his international goal scoring record? He ranks number 1 on goal average at international level, he can't be left out.

In fact I would have no issues if you put 5 or 6 of that great Milan team on your list. I have always said they were the best team Ive seen play. Make room for Ruud Gullit and van Basten. Will Ancelotti make the list? He was quite a big member of that team too.

There is one more of that team to come, which with Rijkaard, Baresi and Maldini makes 4, which is a good return for one single team. Was a great team, would love to see that team take on the great Barcelona team.

So either Gullit or Van Basten doesn't make it. After Brazilian Ronaldo, Van Basten is the best pure striker I've seen. Unreal finisher. He scored with his head, blasted 'em from 20 yard or dink over the keeper. He scored all types of goals Surely he's in. Gullit has to be in too as one of the most complete players in any position. So interesting to see who you've left out.

Yeah, I better tell Niamh at this point, that no Irish player made the top 40. I did consider Paul Mcgrath and Roy Keane, but it wasn't to be.
