He was good but better than anyone in that list? The first 2 pick themselves.
Di Stefano - reckoned by older folk to be the best player in the world, maybe until Pele came along, and winner of numerous European Cups.
Ronaldo, the phenomenon, not the player he used to be now, but even after his peak years, he scored 8 goals to win the world cup for Brazil, no player had scored more than 6 in a tourney for like 30 years. Plus he got 4 goals in 98. Plus various trophies at club level, hunners of goals, and loads of goals at international level too.
Puskas - part of the magical Hungarian team who may have won the World Cup had he not been injured, and something like 83 goals in 84 games for Hungary! (Or was it 84 in 85)? Winner of European Cups with Real Madrid and scorer of 4 goals at the famous Hampden final when I think he was well into his 30s.

And then Eusebio, winner of European Cups and a great international scoring record too. I love seeing the footage of him in the 66 World Cup.
Cruyff? He comes 10th after Baxter, Law and Cooper :-)
