The 10 Greatest Ever Soccer Players in Mls History

Walter Zenga (New England Revolution)

The man they nicknamed Uomo Ragno (Spider-Man), was an ever present in the Inter Milan goal through the 1980’s, making no less than 328 appearances and appearing for his country 58 times.

Even more impressively, in Italia 90 set a record of keeping 5 consecutive clean sheets, totalling 518 minutes without conceding a goal, a record that still stands today.

He is now the manager of Serie A side Catania.

Richard Gough (Kansas City Wizards/San Jose Clash)

A no-nonsense centre half and one of Glasgow Rangers most successful ever players, winning 9 titles as part of the infamous ‘9 in a row’ team. Gough also amassed 61 appearances for the Scottish national side. His spell at Rangers was interrupted by a brief stint with Tottenham Hotspur, only to return to Rangers, becoming the first ever Scottish player to be sold for over £1,000,000.

He spent 2 years in the MLS with Kansas City Wizards and San Jose Cash, being named in the MLS XI of the Year whilst with the Wizards.

Lothar Matthaus (Metrostars)

Perhaps not just one of the greatest players in the history of the MLS, but in the history of soccer. Winning World Soccer Player of the Year, European Footballer of the year and Fifa World Player of the Year, Matthaus could play in defence or midfield, with a rocket right foot that earned him the status of Germany’s most capped player.

His managerial career, however, has not been as successful as his playing days, with short spells in Brazil, Austria and Serbia, and as of now in Israel as the manager of Maccabi Netanya.

Roberto Donadoni (Metrostars)

A vital key in AC Milan’s success through the 80s and 90s, when very few could argue against them being the best club side in the world (other than Barcelona’s dream team). Notorious for effortlessly running past players on the right flank, Donadoni collected 5 Serie A titles, 3 European Cups, 3 European Super Cups and 2 Intercontinental cups before moving on to the Metrostars, where he was named in the Best XI in the 1996 Season.

Now boss of the Italian national side, Italy are left with a mountain to climb in order to progress to the quarter finals after disastrous results against Holland and Romania.

Maurice ‘Mo’ Johnston (Kansas City Wizards)

Mo Johnston was a Scottish centre forward starting his career with Partick Thistle, and then spending a couple of seasons at Watford before his move to Celtic that would later earn him hatred across Glasgow.

Leaving Celtic for Nantes, vowing to never return to Scotland, Johnston reconsidered and done a U-Turn, claiming to sign for Celtic again at the end of the season. As the summer approached, Johnston changed his mind once more, this time signing for arch rivals Rangers. This infuriated Rangers fans as Johnston is an ex Celtic player and supporter, but worse still, he was Roman Catholic. Celtic fans turned on him, opting for the nickname of Judas, replacing his former moniker of MoJo, Rangers fans disliked him from the start.

Nevertheless, he scored 46 goals in 100 games, before moving back to England with Everton. This unsuccessful spell was followed by brief stints with Falkirk and Hearts, before joining the Kansas City Wizards, spending 5 seasons there.

Hw was more recently head coach of Metrostars, before being given his marching orders, taking over the helm of Toronto FC.

Denilson (FC Dallas)

At 21, Denilson became the most expensive player in the world when Spanish outfit Real Betis paid approximately $32,000,000 to Sao Paulo for his services. Renowned for his dazzling stepovers and skinning opponents on the left flank, he was regarded as one of the most promising players the game had seen.

Sadly, the promise he showed never really developed, mostly down to his selfish play by holding on the ball for too long, or as the UK would say, ‘ball-hogging’.

He only played 7 games for Dallas before returning to his native Brazil.

Carlos Valderrama (Tampa Bay Mutiny, Miami Fusion, Colorado Rapids)

Considered the greatest Colombian player of all time, his creativity and flare was only surpassed by his hair – a curly orange electrified afro. Elegant and intelligent with the ball at his feet, El Pibe (The Kid) never actually ran anywhere on the pitch, but with his level of skill, why bother? His status of legend was confirmed in 2006, when a 22 foot bronze statue of him was erected in his home town of Santa Marta. Brilliant.

Spending 6 years in the US, Valderrama still holds the record for the most assists.

Youri Djorkaeff (Metrostars)

Aptly nicknamed ‘Snake’, Djorkaeff was a cultivated attacking midfielder and formed a crucial partnership with Zinedine Zidane, resulting in France winning the 98 World Cup and Euro 2000.

Banging the goals in for Monaco, he spent one season at Paris St Germain before signing for Italian giants Inter Milan and Kaiserslautern, when somehow Bolton Wanderers persuaded him to sign.

He became Metrostars ‘MVP’ during his brief spell in the US, before an ankle injury forced him to retire.

Hristo Stoichkov (Chicago Fire, DC United)

Unpredictable and quite possibly insane, this tricky Bulgarian had everything: pace, mesmerizing dribbling and a devastating shot. Barcelona snapped him up from CSKA Sofia, where his temperament, passion and goal scoring record immortalized him as a Barcelona great.

He was also instrumental in Bulgaria’s unexpected run in the 94 World Cup, during which time they made it to the semi final, losing to Italy. Stoichkov also earned the Golden Boot, finishing joint-top with Russia’s Oleg Solenko.

David Beckham (LA Galaxy)

The man who needs no introduction, ‘Goldenballs’ is the most famous soccer player on the planet, who’s brand is more renowned than his free kicks and defence-splitting passes.

A style icon for every male in Britain whilst playing for Manchester Utd, Beckham’s commitments to his life away from soccer meant that his relationship with Sir Alex Ferguson was likely to deteriorate, as it did to the extent that Ferguson managed to kick a soccer boot at Beckham’s eye, requiring stitches.

Fast forward a couple of years, Beckham joins ‘Los Galacticos’, winning the Supercup in his first season. He had to wait until 2007 for a major honour though, when Real won the Primera league.

Whilst at Galaxy, his career has seen a couple of milestones, a 100th cap for the England national team, and a stunning 70 yard goal against Kansas City Wizards, almost mirroring his efforts for Man Utd against Wimbledon in 1996.

The Best Left Backs Ever To Play Soccer

The position of left back in a soccer team gives a player many responsibilities. They must defend, as part of the important defensive unit, as well as begin and take part in attacking movements. Left backs traditionally wear the number three shirt and generally form part of the back-four with two centre backs and a right back.

As the game of soccer has evolved, the role of left back has become more of an attacking position, with defenders often being very effective when going forward. The abilities required to make a great left back include tackling, pace and passing with the more complete modern-day left back also possessing great ball-skills and crossing.

The best left back that I have ever seen has enjoyed a professional career of twenty-four years at one club. A rare thing in the modern game, this one club man has also played 126 times for his country, scoring seven goals. This highly-decorated footballer is the Italian international Paulo Cesare Maldini.

Maldini is the perfect left back. Strong in the tackle, a team leader and example to the rest of his team, as well as dangerous when going forward. Maldini is also highly-professional and committed, to which his collection of achievements and awards suggest.

Paolo Maldini has appeared in eight UEFA Champions League Finals, winning on five occasions from 1988 to 2007. He has also picked up seven Serie A league titles, five UEFA Super Cup wins and five Supercoppa Italiana medals. Despite his amazing club career, he didn’t win any major international tournaments as he had retired when Italy won the FIFA World Cup in 2006.

Maldini is a shining example of professionalism and commitment in the competitive modern game of soccer. Another left back that exemplifies hard-work and determination is the Brazilian international Roberto Carlos. The little Brazilian has appeared in three FIFA World Cups, finishing runner-up in 1998 and winning the 2002 tournament in Japan and South Korea.

Playing for five clubs in his career, most notably Real Madrid, Roberto Carlos is well-known for his powerful forward runs and thunderous shot. From the position of left-back, he scored 46 goals in 370 Madrid appearances as well as creating many more goals with his pace and quality crossing.

Roberto Carlos scored one of the greatest free-kicks ever when his curling, swerving shot defied logic and found its way into the net against France on June 3, 1997. The famous strike was televised and showed a ball-boy ten yards wide of the goal ducking for cover, the ball swerved so much.

As well as his FIFA World Cup win and runner-up medals, Carlos won four La Liga titles, three UEFA Champions League wins as well as two Brazilian League titles. Carlos still plays professionally in Turkey, at the age of thirty-five, although he retired from international duty in 2006.

There are many other great left backs in the world that possess either strong defensive capabilities or great attacking skills. One of the best at combining the both is England and Chelsea full-back, Ashley Cole. Despite being relatively young, Cole has built a reputation as a great defender with solid performances for club and country.

Cole began his career at Arsenal, with a loan spell at Crystal Palace, winning two FA Premier League titles and three FA Cups. His transfer to Chelsea was clouded in controversy as he was involved in an inappropriate meeting with Chelsea officials while still an Arsenal player. He was fined 100,000 pounds, and his reputation damaged as well as joining a team that had won two previous league titles only to not win a title in his first two seasons.

Cole relies on pace and aggression and his forward runs are the perfect example of the modern-day left back. His performances have enabled him to cement his position as England international first-choice left back with 67 caps, despite strong competition from club teammate Wayne Bridge.

Cole and Carlos are both prime examples of great forward-thinking left backs, while Maldini combines both the traditional defensive role as well as being a danger in the opponent’s penalty area. These three great left backs have taken the role and set the highest possible standards for future generations to emulate.

The Best Right Midfielders Ever To Play Soccer

Traditionally the position of right-sided midfielder is an offensively minded, technically-gifted footballer. Often, the right midfielder will neglect defensive duties in favour of showing skills and pace and attacking the opposition left back. Right midfielders can also be called right wingers or wide rights.

The main aim of the right midfielder is to beat the opponent and deliver crosses or through-balls to create goal-scoring opportunities. Some of the best in history have included Stanley Matthews, Jairzinho and Eddie McGoldrick. Their speed, skill and ability to create chances from nothing helped their teams to greatness.

In the past thirty years, the role of the right midfielder has changed as the game has evolved. Formations change and subsequently the midfielder’s role within the team takes on more responsibility. However, the fundamental abilities required to be a great right midfielder remain the same, the ability to create goals.

The most famous soccer player in history, achieved his reputation being an excellent right midfielder for Manchester United and England. Primarily known now as part of the Beckhams with his wife Posh Spice and kids, David Beckham

signalled his arrival in professional football with a goal from his own half against Wimbledon in 1996.

Beckham lacked the brilliant pace of many right wingers but is largely credited as being the best dead-ball specialist in the world. Free-kicks and corners, as well as long range shots are just some of the reasons that Beckham has currently played over 100 times for England in a ten year career.

Beckham has won almost every major club honour with Manchester United and Real Madrid including six FA Premier League titles, two FA Cups, UEFA Champions Leagues and one La Liga title. Due to England’s failure at every major tournament since 1966, Beckham looks set to miss out on any major international honours, a terrible shame for such a determined and committed professional.

Ronaldo de Assis Moreira is one of the greatest living footballers, with skills that any player would envy. Ronaldinho has worn the famous Number 10 shirt of Brazil, as previously worn by Pele, and has never looked not worthy of such an honour.

With his ability to beat players, skills that seemingly defy physics and his perfect striking of the ball, Ronaldinho is a footballing magician. Winner of the FIFA World Cup, two Spanish League titles and a Champions League win show that Ronaldinho’s skills push his team on to great things to accompany his individual awards. Ronaldinho has twice won FIFA World Player of the Year as well as numerous other individual awards.

Ronaldinho’s club career has seen him play for some of the best teams in Europe including Barcelona, AC Milan and Paris St. Germain. A great free-kick taker, Ronaldinho’s goal scoring record is excellent for a midfielder and would be more than respectable for a forward. This is the new role of the right winger, as they take on more responsibility of scoring goals as well as creating them.

The best modern winger, and best player in any position, in my opinion is the Portuguese and Manchester United winger Cristiano Ronaldo dos Santos Aveiro. With pace, skill, aggression, determination and power, he is the ultimate footballer. Still only 23 years old, Cristiano Ronaldo has already won two FA Premier League titles, one FA Cup, one League Cup and the UEFA Champions League.

As part of the three-pronged Manchester United attack, Ronaldo has been a revelation scoring more than any other United player in their double-winning season. Ronaldo’s ability to head the ball is unusual for a winger, shown by his headed goal in United’s win over Chelsea in the 2008 Champions League Final.

Yet to win the FIFA Player of the Year, Ronaldo has won almost every major individual honour in the game. With so many years ahead in his career, there is no limit to what Cristiano Ronaldo can achieve for both club and country. He could go on to be the greatest player ever to play the game of soccer, although there could be some competition from the likes of Lionel Messi, Alexandre Pato and Victor Moses.
