[KrP1]

False. Jordi alba is 170 no 165

[cavani]

cool stats. so Germany not only won the world cup, they were the tallest. 

[GeTs]

Completely wrong

Gameiro 172cm
Van der Wiel 181cm
Joao Moutinho 173cm
Jordi alba 170 cm
Martin Olsson 178cm

[Taller]

Strange how, while the Netherlands has the tallest population, their 2014 national team was nowhere near being the tallest at the World Cup.

[Sweden]

6 feet or go home, that's the way in Sweden.

[Gichelu]

Sweden is a middle of nowhere boring country only talked about for Ikea so no skin off my nose

[Shortie]

For football the best players always been short , maradona and Messi , accutally all Barcelona except the defenders short

CRonnie7 is 6'1. Tim Howard: 6'3. Just saying.

[Wannabegiant]

CRonnie7 is 6'1. Tim Howard: 6'3. Just saying.

Goalkeepers like Howard though should always be tall for best success. I think pretty much all the great goalkeepers in football are tall. For the other positions it depends a lot on play style but the shorter guys can definitely be just as good as the taller ones.

[Taller]

Very true. That is why I greatly prefer football to basketball.
