I think Xabi Alonso is the best passer in the world, he may look slow but hes actually a step ahead.
Who in your opinion is the best passer?
pirlo,xavi,beckham.
carlos valderrama ![]()
and he only plays at the centre circle
Xavi
xavi/beckham
Paul Scholes
Deco. Enough said.
Paul 'He Scores Goals From Behind The Hole' Scholes
and
David 'Golden Balls' Beckham

scholes for me, steady worker
pirlo
xabi alonso... in terms of technique... sidewards pass, diagonal long ball, his long passes are ever so carefully weighted
pirlo and xavi for high passing rate
riquelme?
pirlo and lampard

Statistics do not lie.
Highest successful pass accuracy - Terry (91.03%)
Highest no. of chances created - Lampard (48)
'nuff said.
indeed terry and lampard are the best according to statistics. I just posted out some statistics from unknown sources and yes you are right, according to stats alone, terry and lampard are the best.
terry pathmanathan

these stats based only on bpl players, is it?

nope, TS states "in the world" so you free to quote some players from anywhere..
Best passer - Guti
Best crosser - Beckham
xabi alonso - no doubt about it
From a different angle, I think best passer, means the passes he made are the ones with the most impact, and not that it is accurate.
In that, I don't think Xabi is the best passer but maybe the most accurate.
just my two cents.

xavi man.
afterall, barcelona style of play is possession. perhaps the whole team is a best passer too.
scholes, xavi, pirlo. also 3 of my favourite players.
