Here are the Top 10 Greatest Premier League Players of All Time, Check Number One from Arsenal

PALEMBANG, SUMATERAEKSPRES.ID - The English Premier League, although relatively new compared to Spain's La Liga, Germany's Bundesliga, and Italy's Serie A, has proven itself as a competitive professional league since its official inception in 1992.

Over the past 31 seasons, the league has witnessed the rise of numerous exceptional players. This assessment is based on their significant contributions to their respective clubs and their ability to lead their teams to Premier League glory.

Liverpool legend Steven Gerrard didn't make it into the top 10 best players in the Premier League. Despite successfully guiding The Reds to two UEFA Champions League titles, Gerrard never clinched the Premier League title for Liverpool.

A similar fate befell Harry Kane, the captain of the English national team. Although an outstanding player and a goal-hungry striker, Kane has yet to deliver a championship trophy to his beloved Tottenham Hotspur.

9. Eric Cantona (Manchester United)

Manchester United legend Eric Cantona rightfully earns his place among the top 10 players. With charisma, character, and brilliance on the field, Cantona enchanted United fans.

Alan Shearer stands as one of the legendary players in the Premier League. He still holds the record for the most goals scored with 260.

7. Mohamed Salah (Liverpool)

Liverpool's success owes much to Mohamed Salah. The Egyptian striker played a pivotal role in Liverpool's Premier League triumph in the 2019-2020 season.

Salah is the first player to achieve three Premier League Golden Boots and has been named the Premier League Player of the Season twice.

His peak came with Liverpool winning the UEFA Champions League in the 2020-2021 season, solidifying Salah as one of the most entertaining players in the Premier League.

6. Ryan Giggs (Manchester United)

Ryan Giggs stands as the most successful player in Manchester United's history. The Welsh player clinched the Premier League title 13 times under the guidance of legendary coach Sir Alex Ferguson.

Giggs, known for his exceptional passing abilities with 146 assists in his career, combined great talent with high discipline. He retired from professional football at the age of 40, having dedicated his entire football career to Manchester United.
