Back with the list is a bit.

Interesting...though about making a cut down list limited to 23 players as a whole after this. gave it a try, but some very hard choices to make.

Casillias
Kaka
Ronaldo
Higuain
Ramos
Alonso
Pepe
Ozil

Soon to be:

Sahin
Benzema
Marcelo
Neymar/Di maria

Yeahhh ... This is the right way to play the game.

What game ?

pepe isn't world class. he is a just a brickwall.

World Class!

Arsenal: RVP, Cesc, Sagna

Nasri and Arshavin are too inconsistent to be labeled World Class

Neuer, Casillas, Valdes; Alves, Lahm; Vidic, Pique, Terry, Kompany; Cole, Evra; Busquets, Schweinsteiger;Xavi, Fabregas; Ozil, Iniesta; Ronaldo, Robben, Pedro, Neymar; Villa, Eto'o. Messi. Drogba

Neymar?

Name three wingers/wide forwards better than him.

He needs to prove himself on the bigger stage.

agreed, the guy has only played against south american teams which have very questionable defenses overall.

CR7, higuain and david silva

Porto: Falcao and Hulk

Real: CR7, Higuain, Alonso, Pepe, Casillas

Barca: Messi, Iniesta, Xavi, puyol, alves, villa(if on form), maybe even pedro

Atletico: Aguero

Man U: Nani, Rooney, Vidic, Evra

Chelsea: Drogba, Essien, Lampard, Torres

Man city: none

Arsenal: Fabregas, Van persie

Okay, going by the standard that they would be fielded by any club-team in the world in the Champions League final without doubt.

I might make one by normal standards later, because I have left out a lot of players that I would call World Class. Some older players that WERE worldclass and will become legends are left out too.
