@@fortress7653as a city fan agreed after reading you comment but I don’t count davis top class he is pace merchant in farmers league wait until he joins la liga or PL you’ll know his defensive approach is too shaky on the other side gvardiol has much better defensive approach
Saka and Odegaard are defintely world class. Odegaard is arguably the best Attacking mid in the world currently, maybe behind Musiala. Saka has been consistent and maybe has two players who are better then him(defintely Salah maybe Yamal)
Gvardiol plays as a left back for Man City so I do not know why you are comparing him to centre backs. He is also the best left back the premier league has to offer right now
Have to disagree with the gvardiol take. He has been playing somewhere as a LCB/LB/LWB ever since he came to city and on the left (where he plays the most) he is deffo world class. He has the complete package both defensively and offensively with speed, defensive IQ, tecnique, and clutch moments including crazy goals, assists and important tackles.
Gvardiol as a package has been world class, no one does what he does off the left at the minute Goals, Distribution, safety on the ball and defending he’s got it all. I’d argue outside of passing range he’s better than Cancelo because Cancelo was LW that relied on Walkers positioning to keep the Back 2/3 strong Gvardiol is at it with a Declined Walker
Gvardiol not worldclass??? Has arguably been citys best and most consistent player this season. Also he’s been playing as a left back, not cb. Also international wise he’s been croatias best player, literally just scored a crucial goal against Portugal 😅
@@freepogostickif we are saying worldclass is top 2 in position, the only player I could see ahead of him is Theo Hernandez. I don’t think there’s another LB nearly as complete defensively and offensively as those two.
Rodrygo has had 1 season where he was better than Saka and since then Saka has continued improving like crazy whilst Rodrgyo has diminished (not his fault it’s the club’s fault). Yamal and Salah are the only right wingers better than him in the world that’s the definition of world class
Rodrygo is always played out of position and isn’t the outlet on his team like saka. He also played a lot less minutes than saka in most those season and had similar if not better stats
@@danchiziofficial2159 he’s was better than saka every season except last season but he was still one of the top performers in the champions league last season. Your trying to make it out that saka is clear when he’s not
@wheresthedropsat6418 funny enough saka for the past 4 season as had more ga than Rodrygo,so wtf are you talking about or do you think that one Big game performance against city means shit??
I think that 2 world class players per position is too low, it just depends on the era. For example in the 2013-2020 era, there were many world class players per position. Barca's midfield was the best but there were "many" world class midfielders for example. And even more players before that era. But right now at the moment I agree that there is 20 or so world class players
I’d maybe stretch it to two teams, so best or second best but no more than that. Also sir Alex Ferguson, the best manager ever, at least for now, said he only coached 4 world class players in his entire managerial career: scholes, giggs, cantona and ronaldo. So he didn’t include the likes of Rooney, Ferdinand, vidic, Keane and many others. I think you’re being a bit too lenient with the definition of world class
Facts for me personally there is about 5 wc players maybe in the whole league. Being in world class form and being world class are two completely different things. A lot of players can perform for 1-2 seasons but to be world class you have to be elite 4+ years
@@ktill97ktnah I don’t like that description. I think if you’re doing it at a high level for a season plus at a level that most aren’t competing at u are world class. We can’t say players like Saka or palmer aren’t world class, most teams would kill to have them on their teams.
Love the vid but a lot of l takes particularly with Saka, gvaridol and salah. Gvardiol is left back . Saka is at least top 3 rw in the world. And behind a few Salah has been one of the most consistent player in the world for about 7 years and counting.
Hes spot on with a lot of takes but obviously wrong with others. The thing is, he doesnt Watch as much football as some of us do. So of course he has some wrong takes, for example gvardiol, in there. Love the videos regardless!
@@elvisekete5541 see that’s where it’s sticky because I’d say at most pedri and olmo are in the same position/role as him they do different things on the pitch
Arsenal hate is so forced, Odegaard, Saka, and Rice are clearly world class. Saka is a top 2 RW itw, his consistency every year is insane. Odegaard has also been very very consistently one of the best 10s in the world the past couple seasons. No way we are calling bernardo solve WC over saka, odegaard, and rice
I’ll be real imo gvardiol has been playing to a world class level, offensively and defensively he is superb and I don’t see a weakness in his game, question is has gvardiol been doing it long enough .
I think to be “World Class” you need at least 2/3 great seasons in your last 3/4 seasons…Some players have a great season and get overhyped. Some players get injured and forgotten (like KDB which is a shame imo). In think consistency is 100% a factor in the world class title. Otherwise you’re just a 1 or 2 season wonder. Same when you drop off. You can’t have ONE bad season or people write you off. I think players who are consistent deserve some respect
Some bias here obviously but people who have watched Caicedo for the past year know how good he is. I'm not gonna make a definitive statement and say he's world class but there are very few players i would take over him, especially considering he's only 23. He started slowly at Chelsea and I feel like people saw that and just assumed his entire last season was bad when he was definitively our 2nd best player.
Gvardiol is playing more as a left back and also he’s so much in his game going forward. I’d say he’s world class and KDB isn’t anymore. Bernardo is one of the smartest players in the world, so doubting that he’s in that list is weird. That’s from City fan perspective. Haaland as good as he is.. idk man, he needs whole orchestra around him to perform lol
gvardiol has scored 3 goals, same as ait nouri, whos also a left back. I think defensively gvardiol is one of the worst defenders I have seen for a top 4 team, but that's my opinion. Personally, if the goals he was scoring werent match winners, I think people wouldnt say much about him. Personally, he's not near being world class. Even so, he was 90 mil...
Domestic league and UCL performances are how I measure where a player stands amongst their peers. I only count international performances if you play for a less talented nation and take them deep into a competition.
Dunno if he’s quite world class yet but Konate is gonna start needing to be recognized soon. Been just as good as VVD this season and might be France captain soon.
I truly believed because of Klopp having a boner for his fullbacks...aka Trent.....giving Trent the freedom to bomb forward alot......and leaving behind his half spaces exposed...and need Konate and a fit Hendo/Milner to cover for Trent......Konate got stretched to his limits and got injured so often. With Slot, Trent play a traditional rb role with focus on defence....and the creative chance creation falling more through to the middle and Salah...Konate can focus on his own spaces and Slot rotate alot.....that probably contribute to minimise his injuries
Saka is definitely world class. He’s top 3 (at least, arguably 2) in his position in the world rn. Trent is also twice the player Kounde and Kimmich are, come on.
I don’t think you can stipulate “world class in the premier league.” Seems like an oxymoron, if they’re only class in respect of the prem then they’re not world class. You could say they’re “top of class in the premier league,” but “world class in the premier league” is a bit of a contradiction.
As much as people say the premier league has too many players that are considered world class, it is the most competitive league in the world so its understandable. However, on this list, Gvardiol Walker, Rice, Raya, Bruno Fernandes(😂) and Cole Parmer are not world class. Some have the potential to be, but not yet.
@@sahibdhillon1613 Pick any 3 number 10s from the teams that are above United in the league. The guys overrated, same player who was crying to get subbed off when they were getting smacked 7-0 by us. Captain aswell btw. Curtis Jones/Harvey Elliot are way better.
If we’re talking players who would start in any team right now without having to move around other players , and i mean ANY team it’s haaland, vvd, saliba, bernardo and a fit KDB Salah is starting for any team but barça. Son and Diaz are starting for any team but Madrid.
Gvardiol is world class right now… Gabriel?????? Romero?????? you can do better than that Nick.. also Bernardo is not world class same as Walker right now but expected by someone who is playing pifa when football is on
Love you Nick but saying Romero or Gabriel is better than Gvardiol 😭 he’s one of the best CB’s in the world and one of the best fullbacks as well at 20 years old
Nah I hear what he’s saying he should’ve just said elite tho. Certain players are elite but haven’t done it on the biggest stages just in prem so know it goes to what’s your definition of world class.
A lot of people are going to see this and tell you you don’t know ball because Gvardiol plays LB and I’m ngl I can’t think of another one as consistent, he even gets the occasional goal, probably still not world class though 😂
Brother don’t take this wrong but gvardiol plays LB and Theo is the only LB you’re taking ahead of him right now especially if you count the end of last season continuing that form into this season
In my opinion, world class just means you play at a very high and consistent level. I don’t think it’s fair to just say a world class player is top 2 in their position, because what if one position is stacked and vice versa? Like for example, if we had 5 Messi’s at RW would we say 3 of them aren’t world class? And likewise, if there was no consistent or good LWs would we still say the best 2 from them are world class?
@ Lil bro, we have better defenders than most of the Prem it’s the Italian way and Inter made it to the CL final and Serie A had the most teams in the UCL in the past could years so sit down
Two mistakes already in like the first minute. Rice is 100% a world class 6, not a world class 8 (where he usually plays) but world class 6 for sure. He's the best defensive midfielder in the world at defending. Gvardiol doesn't play CB but if he played he would be in the top 4 for sure. At left-back? He is the best left back in the world.
Saka not being world class is laughable imo. He's 100% world class and he's been for like 2 seasons. The only RW better than him in the world is Salah. Yamal is not there yet (he will be it's obvious) but Rodrygo hello nah. Saka is the most important player in his team.
@@danchiziofficial2159 for me, top 3 in their position is world class. By that definition, Saka is world class imo. Saliba is. VVD is. TAA is. Allison is not anymore imo, but debatable. Odegaard isn't but he is ELITE. Palmer is. Bruno isn't. Rodri is obv. KDB isn't anymore imo, nor is bernardo. Gvardiol is for sure as a lb. Anyways
@@andrewwright4195trust me they don’t watch Liverpool enough. I don’t see any keeper doing what Allison does even emi Martinez but they’ll be quick to call him the best.

@@syedasadhaider4677As a Liverpool fan I would say odegard is world class. Without him arsenal are not getting 2nd place 2 years in a row. Just look at arsenal without him currently, bad form.
@@s7_wys it depends on how u define world class. For me, best 3 in their position ITW. Odegaard is a weird case for me because he doesn’t really play one set position, but in his specific role, he’s probably world class. But like as a CAM, off form I can’t say he is, as much as I want too
How is top two in the world a valid criteria for world class? Are you telling me robbin van persie wasnt world class in the 2010's when there were so many other great strikers knocking about?. Odegaard is 100% world class so is walker and gvardiol, considering the rarity of decent fullbacks nowdays. Im really liking these videos tho pick, keep it up.
Why is Nick keep comparing Gvardiol to CB. He started at LCB but hes been playing LB for the whole year and all of hes elite performances are at LB. Best Left back in prem and top 3 in europe
Gk: Martinez, Courtois (when healthy) CB: Saliba, Virgil, Arujo (healthy) or Cubarsi, Rudiger (been ass lately) RB: Kunde, Carvajal (just got injured), Kimmich LB: Theo, Davis or Balde (idk) CDM: Rodri, Xhaka (tough one cause Rodri is so Clear of everyone else) CM(8): Pedri, Valverde CM (10): Bellingham, Musiala or Raphinia LW: Vini, Diaz ST: Haaland, Kane or Lew RW: Lamal, Salah Any other list is wrong
People are absolutely delusional on what world class is and I'd be very surprised at 18. Allison, VVD, Salah, TAA, Rodri, haaland, Silva then a lot who are close to becoming it but not quite. People need to stop chucking world class around about everyone when they're just not and a few age has caught up and have personally just dropped out like Robbo, walker, kdb.
@@s7_wys Nobody outside Liverpool and city in the prem are 'world class'. To be world class you need major silverware it's why saliba isn't in but out of them 2 clubs saliba at arsenal is the one where if it's debated I can see the point. World class though gets chucked around far far too much.
The disrespect Saka gets is actually crazy. The boy has been a1 consistent since he arrived on the scene and he’s still only 23. Doesn’t score enough granted but his overall game is undeniable. Ederson is always overlooked. An unpopular opinion but for me Ederson > Alisson..
Oh shut up. Nick said the player would need to be top 2 in the postion for him to consider them wolrd-class. If Salah is one of them and you only got 1 more player to add, then Saka is NOT gonna be one's first thought😂😂.
lmao how did u flop with the first choice , gvardiol been the best and most consistent lb on the planet since start of 2024, just a usa citizen doing what he's best at
You literally contradicted yourself with the Salah take. How has he been consistent over the past 8 years but struggles with consistency at times lmaooo.
No chance. Every forward in real madrid tops him. La liga is just so difficult to score a lot in because everyone defends. PL is easier to play in for strikers
If we are doing top 2 in position, courtois and allison > martinez. Does vini get over son at lw "probably"?? Thats 100000% vini > sonny. Cooking burnt toast in the 2nd half of the vid.
This is proof that nobody watches arsenal. Declan is top 3 in his position, he hasn't performed well this season because he has been playing out of position. Saka is EASILY worldclass, the only person above him is salah. Rodrygo isn't above him unless you want to use his ucl performance against city that happened 3+ seasons ago. Odegaard is also world class and this should be pretty obvios if you have sat down to watch a single arsenal game. Saliba is also obvious and I wouldn't consider raya world-class level yet since the arsenal defence makes his job very easy. This is a 4/5, disagree and you either have never watched an arsenal game or you are a rival fan with bias in your logic.

Two mistakes already in like the first minute. Rice is 100% a world class 6, not a world class 8 (where he usually plays) but world class 6 for sure. He's the best defensive midfielder in the world at defending. Gvardiol doesn't play CB but if he played he would be in the top 4 for sure. At left-back? He is the best left back in the world.
Saka not being world class is laughable imo. He's 100% world class and he's been for like 2 seasons. The only RW better than him in the world is Salah. Yamal is not there yet (he will be it's obvious) but Rodrygo hello nah. Saka is the most important player in his team.
Son is world class. If madrid lost vini and mbappe wasnt a winger he’d be top of their list that says enough
Son would never start for Real Madrid
Son is world class, end of.
@@s7_wysnah not anymore. Cant tell me Diaz hasn’t performed better than him this season. And at the end of the day football is played in the now.
"Worldclass" has become a meaningless word
People love to pick and choose who is world class because if i remember correctly the top three player yes in a position is considered world class
@@danchiziofficial2159 for me, top 3 in their position is world class. By that definition, Saka is world class imo. Saliba is. VVD is. TAA is. Allison is not anymore imo, but debatable. Odegaard isn't but he is ELITE. Palmer is. Bruno isn't. Rodri is obv. KDB isn't anymore imo, nor is bernardo. Gvardiol is for sure as a lb. Anyways
@syedasadhaider4677 allison is best goalie in the world
@@andrewwright4195trust me they don’t watch Liverpool enough. I don’t see any keeper doing what Allison does even emi Martinez but they’ll be quick to call him the best.
@@farouq143 had liverpool fans telling me sell allison 🤣 crazy world that want kellener over him
Pick showing some real Fifa ball knowledge thinking Gvardiol is still a CB
City - kdb rodri haaland silva foden
Lfc - salah mac.allister alisson trent vvd
Arsenal - odegaard saka
Saliba is world class. Odegaard isn't, but he's ELITE. Idk about macca, debatable. KDB isn't world class anymore, I can name 3 CAM better than him. Neither is foden, not right now at least, could be. Nor is silva. Agree with the liverpool ones.
@@syedasadhaider4677As a Liverpool fan I would say odegard is world class. Without him arsenal are not getting 2nd place 2 years in a row. Just look at arsenal without him currently, bad form.
@@s7_wys it depends on how u define world class. For me, best 3 in their position ITW. Odegaard is a weird case for me because he doesn’t really play one set position, but in his specific role, he’s probably world class. But like as a CAM, off form I can’t say he is, as much as I want too
Kyle walker world class 😂😂
Man stick to fifa 😭😭 bro got no ball knowledge
facts
Facts palmer world class after 50 odd prem appearances 😂😂😂😂 he’s cold ,nicks cooked 😂😂😂
Americans and football 😂
Ain't no way yamal is better than saka even tho he's on form still there's just no way
Bruno is easily world class.
How is top two in the world a valid criteria for world class? Are you telling me robbin van persie wasnt world class in the 2010's when there were so many other great strikers knocking about?. Odegaard is 100% world class so is walker and gvardiol, considering the rarity of decent fullbacks nowdays. Im really liking these videos tho pick, keep it up.
Why is Nick keep comparing Gvardiol to CB. He started at LCB but hes been playing LB for the whole year and all of hes elite performances are at LB. Best Left back in prem and top 3 in europe
Gk: Martinez, Courtois (when healthy)
CB: Saliba, Virgil, Arujo (healthy) or Cubarsi, Rudiger (been ass lately)
RB: Kunde, Carvajal (just got injured), Kimmich
LB: Theo, Davis or Balde (idk)
CDM: Rodri, Xhaka (tough one cause Rodri is so Clear of everyone else)
CM(8): Pedri, Valverde
CM (10): Bellingham, Musiala or Raphinia
LW: Vini, Diaz
ST: Haaland, Kane or Lew
RW: Lamal, Salah
Any other list is wrong
Any other list is wrong yet you don’t even have Mbappe🤣🤣
Don’t even get me started on including Davies and not Dimarco.
@@LSEntityMbappe right now he is struggling.
@@alamgirhossain4822 struggling maybe but if you don’t think he’s world class you ain’t gotta clue
@LSEntity well if its current form he isnt world class.But generally of course.Brother is the next big thing.
Saka is easily top 2 in the premier leauge an of course world class
People are absolutely delusional on what world class is and I'd be very surprised at 18. Allison, VVD, Salah, TAA, Rodri, haaland, Silva then a lot who are close to becoming it but not quite. People need to stop chucking world class around about everyone when they're just not and a few age has caught up and have personally just dropped out like Robbo, walker, kdb.
Its risky to really call anyone in prem world class who are not established winners like LFC and city, but there are a few just like any other league.
@@s7_wys Nobody outside Liverpool and city in the prem are 'world class'. To be world class you need major silverware it's why saliba isn't in but out of them 2 clubs saliba at arsenal is the one where if it's debated I can see the point. World class though gets chucked around far far too much.
Most of these players are ELITE but not World Class
No bruno guimares is criminal
The disrespect to Isak 😂
Not world class yet
No way Rice is world class🤣🤣🤣 he’s just a pass back merchant
I think you might have misunderstood what world class means. Not every world class player is THE best in his position.
The disrespect Saka gets is actually crazy. The boy has been a1 consistent since he arrived on the scene and he’s still only 23. Doesn’t score enough granted but his overall game is undeniable.
Ederson is always overlooked. An unpopular opinion but for me Ederson > Alisson..
No allison best goalie in the world for 2 years now
Oh shut up. Nick said the player would need to be top 2 in the postion for him to consider them wolrd-class. If Salah is one of them and you only got 1 more player to add, then Saka is NOT gonna be one's first thought😂😂.
@@LSEntity No way you're saying Ederson is better than Alisson
@@halfportion5764 whos better? saka starts for every team itw except for liverpool and barca
Bro got negative ball knowledge
bro must have not been watching spurs. Romero ain't getting into any team
gvardiol isn't a centerback bro he's been only playing on the.
I’m sorry but the fact you had think if Bruno was currently world is a joke as a united fan he has been bad for the last 8 months don let g/a fool you
He clearly dosent know Gvardiol is LB and not CB
Saka ain’t that guy I’ll be real but no one is ready for that conversation it’s unpopular
The disrespect of saka is crazy
lmao how did u flop with the first choice , gvardiol been the best and most consistent lb on the planet since start of 2024, just a usa citizen doing what he's best at
the truth of the matter is there are better players in la liga
You literally contradicted yourself with the Salah take. How has he been consistent over the past 8 years but struggles with consistency at times lmaooo.
He meant he has dips in form. As an LFC fan this is correct. But then again that's normal for any player who plays in prem for almost a decade.
@@s7_wys overall Salah is worldclass.
as soon as I heard nick say salah was inconsistent I stopped listening
Son is so underrated if he would play for real madrid he would probably be talked about as a top 5 player itw
No chance. Every forward in real madrid tops him. La liga is just so difficult to score a lot in because everyone defends. PL is easier to play in for strikers
@@hatimlimouni1985 this is the same for every top 5 league laliga isn't the only team that defend
@@hatimlimouni1985 you're living in delusion if you seriously think so
@@hatimlimouni1985defensive difficulty: serie A > Prem > La liga
He isn’t good enough for Madrid anymore. A couple years ago he could play there but not right now
This nga thinks Son is not world class 😂
Diaz world class but not Saka is just aesthetic bias not gonna lie 😂 we all watched the Arsenal Liverpool game
We all also watched the Chelsea game where Saka got locked up by Cucurella again 🤣
Saka is world class, he would start ahead of rodrygo for madrid.
Delusionick(delusion + Nick) says Gvardiol isn’t world class🤣Bro is putting up striker numbers as a defender
amorim ball no one is ready
Gvardiol no no no Trent no no no, palmer not yet ffs 12 months of good form doesn’t make you world class
Don't undermine Declan rice bro please don't,
If we are doing top 2 in position, courtois and allison > martinez. Does vini get over son at lw "probably"?? Thats 100000% vini > sonny. Cooking burnt toast in the 2nd half of the vid.
This is proof that nobody watches arsenal. Declan is top 3 in his position, he hasn't performed well this season because he has been playing out of position. Saka is EASILY worldclass, the only person above him is salah. Rodrygo isn't above him unless you want to use his ucl performance against city that happened 3+ seasons ago. Odegaard is also world class and this should be pretty obvios if you have sat down to watch a single arsenal game. Saliba is also obvious and I wouldn't consider raya world-class level yet since the arsenal defence makes his job very easy. This is a 4/5, disagree and you either have never watched an arsenal game or you are a rival fan with bias in your logic.
Ødegaard NOT world class??? what
Valverde > Silva , Current KDB
Nick please delete this. they are gonna say american ball knowledge and i cant even defend you 💀
Gvardiol plays LB not CB
BRUNO HAHAHAHA
4:18......your take on the LFC list.....piss cold mate........Trent is consistent????😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 people should stop taking stats so seriously without context and the eye tests............
