The Guardian messed this up. McTominay is not close to being the best Serie A player. Pulisic not even on the list? So biased.

McTominay was easily the best in Serie A last season, he literally got a mural and pizza named after him.

Where is the quiz for 100 best male American football players?

My point is, if you removed the word “male” from the quiz title, the quiz and all answers would be exactly the same…

Except you’d get 100 players from a different sport.

If you removed "Where is the quiz for 100 best male American football players?" and "My point is" and "the word" and "and all answers" and "exactly" from your comment, your point would be exactly the same.

Dreadful list. How are Palmer, Vitinha, Lautaro Martinez, Doue, McTominay so high? How is Raphinha so low? How about Gabriel? What makes Raya's year that much worse than Courtois'? How is Dumfries above Marquinhos? Nico Williams? Tijjani Reijnders was better than McTominay. Even for those who believe he wasn't, 60 places! What did Woltemade do to be on this list? Messi and Ronaldo bias. (From a Messi fan.) How is Trent on this list? He barely played 30 games and was just Okay, for Liverpool. Leao but no Pulisic? And most of all, Number 95? (If you know, you know.) There are so many other critiques for this list. But of course nothing wrong with the quiz itself. Great quiz!

Why bother adding "male"? With all due respect, I'm quite sure the top 100 players in the world are all male

All the comments complaining about Pulisic not being on the list really drives home how American this website is

Given that this is a quiz about 2025, wouldn't it make sense to list Semenyo on Bournemouth since he didn't transfer until 2026?

Yeah, but the clue is meant for the club they are playing for, hence if any of these players move in the summer it will be updated not to cause confusion.

Everyone saying Pulisic was better than McTominay last season, you just dont watch football and are probably American.
