Like all the players on this list are many people who believe that this is the best ever exist. Pele is a football legend, both the club of his life, Santos, as Brazil. Only player capable of winning 3 world
As usually happens whenever we make such lists who will disagree. Since we are not able to agree on Who was the best player in history, this time we will try to pick the best player from every decade. Like is logic, we have to be somewhat flexible with dates because some players had great seasons in two decades.
RICARDO ZAMORA (1920-1930)
For many, the first media footballer of all time. The Spanish goalkeeper is a legend. Teams like RCD Espanyol, Barcelona and Madrid were lucky to have Zamora in their ranks (GQ magazine)
GIUSEPPE MEAZZA (1930-1940)
World Champion on two consecutive occasions with Italy (1934 Y 1938). Captain of the national team and legend of Inter Milan where he played 13 seasons. He also played in the ranks of the eternal rival, el AC Milan. Not in vain, their stadium is named after them (FIFA.COM)
STANLEY MATTHEWS (1940-1950)
Englishman Stanley Matthews had a very long career. It was the first golden ball in history in the year 1956. Between 1932 Y 1947 wore the Stoke City jersey. Raced at two World Cups with England. He hung his boots on 1965 to the 50 year old (Wikipedia)

SKIN (1960-1970)
Like all the players on this list are many people who believe that this is the best ever exist. Pele is a football legend, both the club of his life, Santos, as Brazil. Only player capable of winning 3 world (1958, 1962 Y 1970)
JOHAN CRUYFF (1970-1980)
Definitely, the man who changed football. Champion three European Cups with Ajax, undisputed leader 'Clockwork Orange' and Barca star as both player and coach. Best 70 safe.
MARADONA (1980-1990)
Choose the best player of the decade of the 80 It is no simple task. Diego Armando Maradona, Boca Juniors legend and of course Argentina. He made the leap to Europe to play for FC Barcelona and later in Napoli where he won two league titles among other titles
RONALDO NAZARIO (1990-2000)
The decade of the 90 is, surely, the most difficult to choose a single footballer. This time we chose Ronaldo Nazario who surprised the world with his power, Dodge and spectacular goals in PSV, Barça, Inter and Real Madrid in addition to the Brazilian national team with former world champion 1994 Y 2002 and finalist in 1998 (Photo: 25media)
Zinedine Zidane (2000-2010)
Zinedine Zidane ruled the football world in the late 90 (It was world champion with France in 1998) and the first half of the 2000. Juventus and Real Madrid were their clubs at that time. His last game was the World Cup final 2006 France lost against Italy. Another who stood out during these first years of the 21st century was the great Ronaldinho Gaucho.
Lionel Messi (2010-2020)
The duel between Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, definitely, history of football is forever. But nevertheless, if we can only choose the best of the decade, we have to opt for the Argentine who just needs to put the icing on his career by winning a title with Argentina since the club has won absolutely everything (FC Barcelona)
