100 Best Football Players In The World 2022

The ultimate list of the best football players in the world in 2022, based on statistics and match performances. As the world acclimatizes to 2022, new ideas, new goals and new lists are the primary agendas of netizens who want to do away with the old calendar. And what list is greater in the new year than that of the best football players in the world 2022. Award platforms like the Balon d'Or, have come under intense criticism in recent years due to their use of a flawed popularity model to recognise outstanding players as exemplified by the Messi-Lewandowski debacle of 2021. This criterion which comes in form of voting processes from teammates, coaches and journalists, have proven to be inconclusive, as players who do not generate front-page popularity or those with zero PR, are relegated to the trenches. For example, the 2021 FIFA The Best Award final voting result had Neymar in the top 10, despite the Brazilian managing only 8 league goal contributions all year. On the other hand, a player like Thomas Muller who boasted 40 goal contributions in the more competitive Bundesliga was wholly snubbed.
