Do you agree with this ranking ?

I don't agree with how high Iker Muniain is on this list but he belongs in it. What about Coutinho? It's his first season in Liverpool and he's playing very, very well.

yeah, really surprising ranking...

not sure about the ranking but this guy has some pretty good picks in here. I would agree Coutinho has been phenomenal.

i agree, any other young talent to add to this list ?

I'm surprised Phil Jones isn't on the list

I know every player of the list and some of them never made anything other than being in a great club.
That's ridiculous!
Son Heung Min, 20 years, TOP 10 best striker in Bundesliga, titular in Hamburger, not in the list... OK, shit list!

To see Lukaku and Thibaut so far back is sad. MANY will disagree, but Courtois has been better than ter Stegen this season. And do I actually have to say anything about Lukaku to say he deserves a better rank? Overall, pretty shit list imo.

@Vendetta
No beef, but, Lukaku should be higher. Thats probably the only reason you don't like this list.

This is just stupid! How is Pogba and Coutinho not in the list, but some Barcelona B players on it!!!

1) Wheres Coutinho?

2) I just love how Xaha is 19th and Ox is 48th :D Proves how much England ovverate this guy (He should be higher though)

3) Seriously? Shaqiri 21st? Swap him with Muniain :P

its not my list, morata isn't there also Tello... this list is from dutch news paper very respectful in holland. i don' t agree with ranks, but we can't be objective here...
@juve19 its not my fault for pogba, i have just shared the list im not the one who made it. im french i know pogba more than you how class he is...

As the American magazine World Soccer, the Dutch newspaper Algemeen Dagblad published a long list of the best players under 21 years old, according to different criteria (charts, potential, selections, etc..). And 2012 AD considers that the winner is Mario Götze (20 years). The phenomenon of Borussia Dortmund, became champion of Germany and in international A Nationalmannschaft, seduced by its vista and freshness.

Behind him, there is Neymar (20 years). Brazilian starlet Santos and the national team has shown this year that his talent was indeed unusual. This is Iker Muniain (19) which takes place on the third step of the podium thanks to his exceptional career in the Europa League with Athletic Bilbao and the quality of his dribbling. The first French advanced to sixth position. This is Raphael Varane (19), champion of Spain in his first season at Real Madrid.

Other major traffic hopes are present in this broad overview Kurt Zouma (17), solid defender AS Saint-Etienne (20th); M'Baye Niang (17), attacking past Caen AC Milan this summer (41) and Hervin Ongenda (17), promising striker Paris SG (43rd).

Finally pay tribute to other residents present in Ligue 1 in the rankings, starting with Marco Verratti (19 years), the Paris SG Ligue 1 and adopted in a few weeks (8th), Lucas Moura (20 years ), the capital club will discover in January (14th) and Lucas Ocampos (18), which is already beginning to treat aS Monaco and Louis II.

@tiki_taka, I know that this is not your list and that you only shared the list :)
