Choose your dream 4-4-2 formation from our list of the 100 greatest footballers of all time and see how close you can come to achieving a perfect score.

Over the years, immense effort has gone into curating FourFourTwo's Top 100 footballers of all time. It’s a true labour of passion that demands ongoing updates and careful consideration. As football continues to evolve each year, new stars emerge and make a strong case for inclusion among the sport’s elite.

Every player featured on this list stands shoulder to shoulder with the most extraordinary talents ever to grace the game. While the list will be revisited after the 2026 World Cup, for now, it remains definitive—offering a perfect chance for our readers to have some fun and put their football knowledge to the test.

We’ve organised all 100 players according to their positions—goalkeepers, defenders, midfielders and strikers. Pick your preferred line-up, and you’ll receive a percentage score based on how highly your selections rank in our Top 100 list. The better your picks, the higher your final percentage.
