Zidane should definitely be in the top 5 not kaka ronaldo or lampard this guy is a legend and could school any of these players easily he was the heart and soul of any soccer team he is also rated upon the top 3 football players in the world.
Wow.. this is pathetic
Ronaldo and Lampard don't even come close to Zidane.
I guess people are just looking at modern day midfielders and not at the best of all time
Pure talent, skills, shoot, dribbling, power, spectacular goals.. No one else comes close

18th? What? He is in Top 3!
Juan Manuel Mata García is a Spanish professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Premier League club Manchester United and the Spain national team. Cause he is a giant, sting midfielder for chelsea and scored lots of good, quality goals. Flynn age 8
Andrea Pirlo is an Italian professional footballer who plays for American club New York City FC in Major League Soccer and the Italy national team. His passing accuracy, corner, free-kick all was awesome
Deep-lying playmaker, an invention
Best midfielder to grace football
Frank James Lampard is an English professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for New York City FC in Major League Soccer. Look at his numbers, just look at it 232 goals and 172 assists. It's nearly impossible for any midfielder to scale such heights but not Frank Lampard. He is a legend, in every sense of the word. It was a pleasure watching him play. Too bad we won't be able to do it any longer. It's a pain, really. A pain that leaves a hole in the heart as deep as the ocean.
What can I say every one in the world know Frank Lampard is the best and is a legend.. A goal machine A friend A hero A legend A heartbeat of the team A Legend.. He have good vision to know wheere to pass where to kick the ball.. He is also the most successful penalty in football history.
It's awesome to be the top scorer for the club and, he is a midfielder! He had scored a variety of wonder, from freekicks to headers, and surely, the goal from the tightest of angle beating valdes! He's a great midfielder.
Franks the best he gets all the assists to chelsea and scores a lot. He's the top kicker on chelsea. If chelsea gets to a penalty shootout he kicks first because the coach relies on him
Xavier "Xavi" Hernández Creus is a Spanish professional footballer who plays as a central midfielder for Qatari club Al Sadd SC. No matter what anyone says, this guy is definitely the best midfielder ever! (Coming from someone who played pro in South America) his success in club and country can't lie, plus changing the whole tactic system in the best club in the world (Barcelona) is something only a legend could do. The brain of Barça/Spain and main point of the tiki-taka system, he pretty much controlled the whole team according to his thinking (check his highlights on YouTube), this world will definitely never see another footballer like Xavi Hernandez!
Why sre Ronaldo and ribery here! XAVI is the BEST he should be in the TOP that's iT! If he is not better than maradona overall, he's surely a better playmaker and midfieder in the world, he has beter midfield skills than maradona
How the hell is xavi 12th and the top 3 are not even traditional midfielders. Xavi is a footballing legend and is the greastest passer of all time. Also where is paul scholes?
Best in the world insane pass completion rate in his prime
Steven George Gerrard is an English professional footballer who plays for Major League Soccer club LA Galaxy. Say all you want about Lampard's stats, but let's be honest, if we talk about the pure quality, Gerrard is above Lampard. The goals he scored for Liverpool and England were out of this world, and not to mention, crucial. He won Liverpool the champions league and FA cup by himself, and was arguably the best captain of the premier league era. He played in a mediocre team for his whole career and still did amazing, he didn't need to be put in a world class team to get global recognition, and that's why Liverpool fans will admit that for many years, Gerrard carried Liverpool. Lampard simply didn't have the same influence as Gerrard, or the "big game" attitude.
Gerrard is a wonderful football player and a brilliant role model I think every child should look up to him. He is 33 years old but can still play like ronaldo or messi steven is the king of football
He don't need any explanation.. Shoot power, accuracy, defense, attack, pass and leader.. He's just the BEST.
Gerrard is the best long range goal scorer in the world and the best midfielder of all time
Ronaldo de Assis Moreira (born 21 March 1980), commonly known as Ronaldinho Gaúcho or simply Ronaldinho, is a Brazilian former professional footballer and current ambassador for Barcelona. He played mostly as an attacking midfielder, but was also deployed as a winger. Often considered one of the best ...read more. I say that he is the best, when he is at his peak he is unstoppable.
He's not a midfielder but vote for the banter
He is the best dribbler... And should be best
Visitor, he is a midfielder.
Cristiano Ronaldo dos Santos Aveiro (born 5 February 1985) is a Portuguese professional footballer who plays as a forward for Serie A club Juventus and captains the Portugal national team. We all know him. OF course he somewhere on this list.
But he is not midfielder. He is a forward (winger)
Ronaldo is so awesome with his skills
Ronaldo Is Best And He Can Do Anything
Park is such an underrated player. Just his determination and short passing will inspire the whole team.

SIMPLY THE BEST
HARD WORKING
EVERYWHERE!
HE LITERALLY HAS TWO LUNGS
WHENEVER HE PLAYS, I SEE HIM LITERALLY EVERYWHERE ON THE FIELD
Ricardo Izecson dos Santos Leite, commonly known as Kaká or Ricardo Kaká, is a Brazilian professional footballer who plays as an attacking midfielder for Orlando City SC in Major League Soccer and the Brazil national team. He is the best player & midfielder I have ever seen after zidane number 1 can match him in terms of quality & precision. Kaka & cr7 are my fvr8 but players lke cristiano ronaldo is the result of tremendous hard wrk and god given talent and hs 1 of my fvr8 but kaka is my fvr8 player of all time and he is just pure magic the passes he produces are unimaginable he can produce anything 4m nothing that's where the magic starts he is a game changer a match winner and most arguably the best player than messi or cr7 had he nt been benched by mou and injured during world cup... But still now he has cme bk 2 his best and will 1nce again be the best under ancelotti
The most prolific playmakers in present day football and he makes the whole attack look so simple by his passing ability... He can score from long range, inside the box... A full PACKAGE...
The best of Midfielders ever experienced by soccer!
What kaka has done, no one can do. He is the best
Luka Modrić is a Croatian footballer who plays for Spanish club Real Madrid and the Croatia national team. He will win the ballon d'or he takes free kicks he takes long shot and has incredible vision
