The debate has moved to another plane: it is not so much a question of whether Messi is the best player in the world right now, as whether Messi might just be the best player there has ever been. The game doesn’t make it clear how you can get three stars in a level, but you will notice that you can only start getting two or three stars after you’ve signed with a team and chosen your name, nationality, and number. So how can you get a perfect three stars in a level? Four English players make it onto the list; Ashley Cole (30th), Wayne Rooney (31st), Joe Hart (65th) and John Terry (86). Despite only a few English players making it onto the top 100, the Premier League is the best represented with 27 players, followed by La Liga with 23. The chart above shows the top five leagues by the number of footballers appearing in the list.

The average age for the footballers appearing on the list is 26 years old. Stephan El Shaarawy, aged 20, is the youngest player in the top 100 whilst Javier Zanetti is the oldest at 39 years old. The ranking, which has slowly been revealed in a countdown from the 20 December, is now published in full and the world's top 100 footballers are listed below for you to view.

Topnotch artwork and dynamic levels mean a truly world-class immersive football (soccer) game experience. Once you’ve completed eight levels, including the tutorial, that’s when you can choose your player’s name, jersey number, nationality, and club. Once again, this does not have any impact on gameplay, as it’s all about your skill in drawing paths from one player to the next to make the pass or toward the goal to attempt a shot. Just like the game it was influenced by, failing to score on the succeeding parts of the challenges will force you to redo everything from the top. The only consolation here is the fact that all you need to do to rewind is to watch an ad, and that you don’t have to worry about running out of energy after retrying a level. As there is no such thing as player attributes or skills in Soccer Super Star, you may be wondering what type of rewards you can win after you complete a level. Most of the time, your only reward, if you can call it that, would be the stars, as well as the fact that you can move on to the next level. But if you see a level with a bag over it, that means you can win that prize bag if you complete the level — usually, this will be one of those multi-pronged levels we talked about earlier, where you need to score more than one goal.
