Who is the world's number one football player?

I don't know now, but in my times, the goalkeeper was always the number 1. And, in case you are wondering, the center forward was always number 9.

Pele actually retired in 1977. That was a little longer than 25 years ago. Best player since then A) Maradona or B) Zidane...followed up by C)Romario

No one...not one player can be compared to Ronaldinho.  He is the absolute best player in the world. If any club could select one player, it would be Ronaldinho.  His style is bar none, his skills are bar none, he raises his team to another level....whether it be Barcelona or Brasil.  Pele's status of all-time best player could have it's days numbered if Ronaldinho continues his ways.

Tim Howard definitely should be the number 1. Don't worry though, I think he'll be the starter next world cup.

Pele. He is the all-time top scorer in the history of the Brazil national team and is the only footballer ever to win three World Cup trophies (it should be noted that, due to injury, he did not participate in Brazil's World Cup triumph in 1962 and did not recieve a medal). \n\nEnjoy!!!

Pele is by far the best player of all time he changed the game when he was very young and people told him that he was too little but he showed them by scoring the most goals in his first world cup

Ronaldihno. No doubt. He makes everyone in his team a lot better plus his skills are of the chart. Oh and back to back FIFA world player of the year doesn't hurt either.

At this day and age, Ronaldinho (barcelona,) but if you mean ever, there's no question at all that it's Pele. Actually, i think Pele is the most prized athlete period- in the history of any sport ever!!
