Vivian John Woodward CLUBThis year 101 year from John Woodward's football carrier start is executed. He was good player. But by quantity of goals at a level of national teams, and by quantity of the matches which have been carried out for national team it he is not the leader. He has not got in the list of the best published Pele. But the E-success has defined, what exactly he is the greatest forward of centuries! And what about Pele? The Pele-sixth! What is the Å-success? Or in this case success of the forward. We shall consider a simple problem. Example 1. Let the player "A" has made 100 goals in 100 matches and the player "B" only 90 goals in 60 matches. If to judge on number of goals "A" is better than "B". But I think the majority would will prefer "B". From here like it is clear, that it is necessary to take an average of goals in one game to define the best. Example 2. Let "A" has made one goal in 50 games and the player "B" in 100 matches would made in 90 goals. Using productivity we should prefer the player "A", But again I think the majority would will prefer the player "B". Thus, neither absolute, nor the relative number of goals unequivocally does not allow to estimate all cases from statistics of the players hammering in goals. As an estimation of achievement of forwards it is offered to use E-success which is defined by product of result on productivity E-success = Goals * Goals / Games. The Success of the player And is equal the first example 100 * 100 / 100 = 100. And success of the player 90 * 90 / 60 = 135 The Success of the player And is equal the second example 50 * 50/50 = 50. And success of the player 90 * 90/100 = 81 Reply in WorldSoccer

05/03/04 Greatest-ever lists - be they footballers or movies, pop stars or motor cars - are never definitive. Their subjective nature means they are always open to criticism. Pele's list of 100 (actually 125) greatest living footballers, published this week as part of FIFA's centenary celebrations, is no different. Pele may have been the greatest ever player but he has struggled to gain respect for his opinions since retiring as a player. Pele's reputation will not have been enhanced by the list. On the contrary, he has done himself considerable damage. It's easy to pick holes in such a list so here goes. A few obvious omissions: Let me add to this "holes" list some peoples from Goal Success List Rnk Player Country Start End Goal GP Success 1 Vivian John Woodward England 1903 1914 73 53 100,5 2 Sandor Kocsis Hungary 1948 1956 75 68 82,7 5 Poul "Tist" Nielsen Denmark 1910 1925 52 38 71,2 7 *Ali Daei Iran 1993 2004 87 119 63,6 8 Gunnar Nordahl Sweden 1942 1948 43 33 56,0 9 Sven Rydell Sweden 1923 1932 49 43 55,8 10*Jassem Al-Houwaidi Kuwait 1992 2002 63 74 53,6 11 Imre Schlosser Hungary 1906 1927 59 68 51,2 What about Florian Albert (111), Bebeto (66),( Igor Belanov, Roberto Bettega, Oleg Blokhin (114), Dragan Dzajic, Ryan Giggs, Johnny Haynes, Ronald Koeman, Ruud Krol, Ian Rush (122), Matthias Sammer, Enzo Scifo, Peter Shilton, Allan Simonsen, Luis Suarez, Marco Tardelli, Jean Tigana, Paul Van Himst (112), Andoni Zubizarreta? The apparent need to include as many countries as possible means Pele included two American women, Michelle Akers and Mia Hamm. But why not China's Sun Wen, voted FIFA's woman footballer of the 20th century? Would the Americans really have been that offended if Akers and Hamm had been omitted? Similarly, would the Senegalese have minded if El Hadj-Diouf, that well-known Liverpool substitute, not appeared on the list? Ditto Turkey and Emre Belozoglu, Nigeria and Jay-Jay Okocha. As for Hong Myung-bo, if Pele wanted to recognise South Korea's contribution to world football, why not Cha Ba-kum (45), the man long considered the country's greatest player and the first Asian to successfully play professionally in Europe, in Germany in the 1980s. Unlike Hong, who never played in Europe and is currently struggling to make his mark in US Major League Soccer. Present-day goalkeepers Rustu Recber and Gianluigi Buffon are included, but not Jose Luis Chilavert or Pat Jennings. Roy Keane, the man who walked out on Ireland's 2002 World Cup squad, makes the cut, but not Johnny Giles. Alan Shearer is in there, but not Jimmy Greaves. And where Lev Yashin from the USSR? Since retiring Pele has always been the arch diplomat, forever foresaking the controversial comment in favour of something less offensive. He tends to pitch his comments to whatever nationality his audience is. So picking 100 players for a global audience was always going to be problematic; somebody was bound to be upset. But Pele - or rather, the brains trust at FIFA which suggested the names to him - has committed the terrible error of not wanting to offend people in football's emerging nations. Instead, he has insulted the intelligence of everybody else. Vivian John Woodward CLUBÂîò è ïðèøëîñü ñîïîñòàâèòü äâà ñïèñêà Ïåëå è Å-Óñïåõ.
