Making a football tier list
Football rankings usually turn into arguments about players, which date within a season. Ranking positions, formations and moments instead produces a list that still makes sense years later and says more about how you actually see the game.
Try ranking positions by how much you would enjoy playing them rather than by importance. Goalkeeper moves a long way depending on which question you asked.

Frequently asked questions
- How do you make a football tier list?
- Pick a stable subject - positions, formations or match situations - rather than current players, then rank from S to F. Player lists are fun but out of date by the next transfer window.
- What is the hardest thing to rank in football?
- Formations, because they only make sense with the right personnel. A formation that is S tier with a quick midfield is unusable without one, which is why most formation lists cluster in the middle.
- Should a football tier list rank players or positions?
- Positions last longer. Player lists are enjoyable but out of date within a season, while a ranking of positions or match situations still reads sensibly years later.
