1987. Messi
Though I guess since elite players get brought up through competitive play much earlier, that's more like 35.

How can you know who Messi is and not know about Diego Maradona? Also, 1981 badly needs to be changed to Federer or Serena.

I'd have a really hard time removing shaq in 1972

They are both greats.
The guys I listed are either guys I believe are the best in their year or guys that should at the very least be in the conversation.

Maradona and Zidane are definitely better than the ones already there.
