Appe 6ft 0.5 said on 4/Dec/15
@Luca Personally I think Mandzukic is about 190cm just out of bed and ends the day at 187,5/188cm.
I am Italian, I live in Turin.

I don't agree with you who think all footballers lie about their height. Actors, musicians I agree with those ones, and some stars in football if they are shortish, but most footballers are listed just right, yes there are mistakes some of them are listed shorter due to old junior stats and some of them tall, but most of heights are just facts off medical height. It is difficult just to judge heights looking pics on the pitch
appe 6ft0.5 said on 30/Nov/15
@Luca Mandzukic is for sure 188cm, see him with Giorgio Chiellini who I met and who is a legit 187cm. Mandzukic is 188cm no less, one of the players who is underlisted in terms of height
appe 6ft0.5 said on 24/Nov/15
@Correg IMO Van Nistelrooy 189 cm and Patrick Kluivert 188cm
Correg said on 21/Nov/15
@Rob What do you think old players Van Nistelrooy and Patrick Klauivert's height ?
Rory said on 21/Nov/15
@184 Matt...yh i dnt think Alli is 6'2, as he is edged out by the likes of Harry Kane and Vertonghen..i think 187 is possible for him though, with a chance of 186. Ross Barkley is nowhere near the 188-189 listings he receives, but i think 183 is too low, he looks just a solid inch shorter than 188 John Stones and Lukaku..i think 184-185 is fair for Barkley.
BigMac said on 19/Nov/15
@Rob How tall do you think Yaya Toure is? He's listed between 6'2-6'3, I personally believe he's 6'3. He looks shorter because of his poor posture
Editor Rob
190cm is possible for him
Rory said on 19/Nov/15
Cavani id say would just edge Torres..i think he's 6'0.75...while Torres is either 6'0.25 or 6'0.5.
184 Matt said on 19/Nov/15
What do people think about Dele Alli? He's listed at 188 but looks more a 186ish to me. Ross Barkley is about 183 but is regularly listed as taller.
Editor Rob
not seen much of him, he did claim 6ft at age 16.
Rory said on 18/Nov/15
@Appe 6'0.5....im with you i think Icardi is near 6ft..looks very close to other 6 footers like Diego Milito and Guarin in pictures.
Alexbigguy said on 17/Nov/15
I met icardi last summer and he didn't look tall... he looked more 179-180 than 181-182... Mateo kovacic is listed at 1.81 but he looks at least 1.5 inches shorter than icardi!
appe 6ft0.5 said on 16/Nov/15
@Rob is for you taller Fernando Torres or Edinson Cavani? And how much difference (if there is)? Thank you
appe 6ft0.5 said on 16/Nov/15
@Rob, are you serious about Icardi? I am a Inter Milan supporter and I watch all its match. I sincerily would go with 182 for him! Around 180 is clear too short IMO.
Bernie said on 15/Nov/15
Rob, How tall would you say Paul Pogba is because he is listed from 6'2 to 6'4 for me I would say a strong 6'3
Editor Rob
6ft 3 range is very possible for him.

How tall do you think Ronaldinho is? And Ronaldo?
plus said on 11/Nov/15
@Zz182 I think he doesn't lie, he is 183 cm. By the way I'm very curious in some famous players around 176-177. I would bet that Pirlo is 176 cm (listed 177 cm), Seedorf is 176,5 (he wasn't ashamed to pose standing up in the team pictures), Cafu is a strong 176 cm (posing the same and listed 176 cm). About Goetze I would go for 175 cm.
Zz182 said on 10/Nov/15
Rob,how tall is otamendi?listed at 6ft but looks like a 181 to me
Editor Rob
not sure if he is that short, he looked to have like 5 inches on Mascherano
plus said on 7/Nov/15
Brazilian born Spanish Marcos Senna is listed from 173 cm to 178 cm. The proof webmasters of football clubs don't care at all about medical measurements and they get sources from any place there is that he is listed 5'8 in New York Cosmos website and Raul is listed 5'11. Senna is at least 5'9.5 or 5'9.75 and Raul is 5'10.5 or 5'10.75. They are close like an inch of difference maximum and not 3".

Really if you go on the basis that Rakitic is 182.6cm Busquests looks no more than 186cm next to him.

I agree with you Appe. Lewa sometimes looks 185 cm. Min .183 cm.
Appe 6ft 0.5 said on 5/Nov/15
@plus you can also see that reina is 4-5 cm taller than casillas and this make us say he is in the 185-186 range
Editor Rob
he could look an inch over gerard from back in the day
Appe 6ft 0.5 said on 5/Nov/15
@plus IMO is too high for reina... I would say 186. Anyway IMO busquet is not as tall as 189, but more a flat 188.
Appe 6ft 0.5 said on 4/Nov/15
@Rob I don' t think he could be 184cm! See him with lewadowski, torres or sergio ramos... He does look around 186cm with all them... I would say minimum he s a flat 6ft 1
Editor Rob
flat 6ft 1 is arguable, but I can't see him looking over that mark.
plus said on 4/Nov/15
@Appe my opinion about Reina is weak 188 cm (187,5 cm). He is bald that's why he looks shorter. No less, you can see he is similar to Busquets so no less than that.

About Spanish players there is one that is downlisted because of his height at 16 years old. That one is Cesc Fàbregas, he is 179 cm and no 175 cm as listed. The shortest Spanish player I know is Albert Crusat, he is shorter than Piatti (163 cm), so he must be around 161-162 cm, despite his 165 cm claim
Appe 6ft 0.5 said on 3/Nov/15
@Rob even if, maybe, you re not sure on him, can you look and tell me what s your opinion on Pepe Reina height? I think it will be usefull to estimate other spanish players heights.
Do you think he s more in the 6ft1 range or in the 6ft2 one? thank you
Editor Rob
no chance Pepe is 6ft 2, 6ft 0.5-1 range is far more likelier.
plus said on 2/Nov/15
about short Italian players there are some of them shorter than 5,7: Sebastian Giovinco 162 cm, Lorenzo Insigne 163 cm, Marco Verratti 167 cm but he is listed 165 cm. Verratti passes clearly Insigne more than 2 cm so he must be 167 cm.
appe 6ft0.5 said on 2/Nov/15
@David matteo darmian is imo in the strong 6ft range: he is not towered by other Italian national team defenders as Barzagli, Chiellini and Bonucci who are all around or slightly below 6ft2.
spainmen191cm said on 1/Nov/15
Rob, do you think Zidane is 6ft1? Sometimes can look below that mark, like 184
Editor Rob
at times 6ft 1, at times weak 6ft 1 range.

What does everyone think about Pogbas height, there's no doubt that he's 1.91m could he be taller like maybe 1.92, but imo no way is he under 1.91m
Luis_182cm said on 1/Nov/15
What do you think about former italian players Zambrotta and Panucci? The first one is listed at 181 cm but rarely looks it, he looks shorter to me. And Panucci in the other hand looks taller than his 184 cm listing to me, what do you think?
plus said on 1/Nov/15
About Isco, I don't think he is shorter than 174,5, but he is not 176 cm as listed. Modric is listed 174 and he is no more than 171 cm. Marcelo is around 173,5
Alex said on 31/Oct/15
Buffon was always listed at 191cm, only in the last two years he became 192, which seems very strange.I believe in 191cm.@Bernie
Mandzukic looks very close to chiellini and shorter than pogba and buffon (they look very similar), I guess 187-188 cm guy.
Barzagli was always listed 186, I believe that even if he can appear taller.

@Rob, Can you order these 4 players in height (from the tallest to the "smallest") even if we are probably talking about fraction, or maximum a cm? (If you can specifying the evening height) Thank you vero much
Gareth Bale
Lewandowski
F. Torres
Bartra
Editor Rob
not sure on batra but I would say they may well be close, it is still possible bale falls a fraction over 6ft, and lewadowski in the 184cm range, with torres similarly between 6ft and 6ft 0.5
Appe6ft0.5 said on 29/Oct/15
@Felix maybe podolski could look a fraction smaller than Bastian because he's quite bulky. Instead Ozil is surely nothing over 180cm: to me he is in the 179-180cm range.
So, if I had to bet money I d go for:
Schweinsteiger 181,7-182
Podolski 181,4 - 181,7
Ozil 179,5
Allie said on 29/Oct/15
Schweinsteiger probably is 5'11 range, he's never struck me as taller than Ana Ivanovic and in some pics he has bigger footwear.
plus said on 28/Oct/15
@Felix Di Maria is a little bit taller than Ozil. Di Maria is 5,11: 180 cm. If Di Maria is 180 Ozil has to be like 179 cm. I say that because I have a picture with former Real Madrid player, Sergio Canales. Canales is taller than me but he is shorter than Ozil and Di Maria

Guys, don t look at heights listed on juventus site, there is also morata listed at 189 that is obviously a joke. IMO their heights in the afternoon are :
Mandzukic: 187,5-188,2
Morata: 186,8-187,3
Felix said on 28/Oct/15
@appe6ft05 i can buy that, i think that if they have any height difference it is no more than 2cm. Schweinsteiger has been listed as 6'0 everywhere for years, and podolski listings go from 180cm to 182cm. Definitely they are in the 5'11~6' spectrum, even though i couldn't tell their exact heights. Anyone has a thought on Ozil's height? He looks similar to those two to me
Bernie said on 27/Oct/15
@Alexita Buffon is 6'3.5 and Mandzukic is 6'2.75 1.90 he is the same height as pogba and taller than cheillini
Appe 6ft 0.5 said on 27/Oct/15
@Felix IMO bastian and podolski have identical heights. I would say between 181 and 182 before bed
Appe 6ft 0.5 said on 27/Oct/15
@alexita Barzagli is 187-188 like chiellini
plus said on 27/Oct/15
Sometimes there is a footballer listed let's say 180 that is taller than another one of 180... there is no need to downgrade him I have the solution, one can be 179.5 and the other 180.3, there is 8 mm of difference.
I would bet that David Villa was measured 174.5. I read an old profile when he was starting to play football in the second division in Sporting and he was listed 175. I don't think they were inflating his height back then. Villa is 174'5 cm
Alexita said on 26/Oct/15
Juventus players:
Buffon 191
Chiellini 187
Bonucci 189
Barzagli 186
Marchisio 179
Mandzukic 187( very solid)
Morata 187(weak)
Pogba 191
Khedira 188
Laf said on 26/Oct/15
Rob mentioned a while back he thought Schweinsteiger looked more 5'11 range than 6 foot, and I agree with him.
Herrera for me is more a strong 5'10 than a strong 5'11.

Actually yh 189 is too much for morata, I've had a second look and I could believe 187..I think he's another guy with a lean,athletic frame which fooled me into thinking he was taller..I'd stock with 6ft range for harrera though.

For me, Pique is 192cm and Giroud is 190cm. At recent Ireland vs Poland match, John O'Shea (191cm) stood beside Lewandowski when both teams gathered before the match and was comfortably three inches taller. O'Shea also seemed more or less the same as Neuer a few days before at the Ireland vs Germany match. For me, Lewandowski is 183 and Neuer is 192.

Casillas 6'0.5
Aubameyang 6'1.5

Pique and Giroud are both listed as 6'4/192. Do you think that they are 6'4 or probably around 6'3.5? Cause 6'4 in cm is just about 193 cm on the dot. And since some places round up or down, it would almost ways be 193 cm.
And looking at pictures, they don't look like "honest" 6'4s, but close to it. Also, who do you guys think would edge each other out?

@plus probably lewandowski edges Xabi a bit, but not more than a simple cm. Let' s say Alonso can be listed 182.7 and lewandowski around 184 (not over)
@Luca I met chiellini several times and took photo with him. To me he is the perfect example of a 187cm guy...if Rob thinks Balotelli is a little shorter so Balotelli would be listed by Rob probably 186cm.

@appe Footballers take controls normally in the morning so I think the 185 cm is during the morning before lunch. But I think it's not that important because if he stands in the night with another person, the other person is also smaller. But I think the abrupt change is about tall people. I am around 176.6 cm all day, perhaps 176.4 to 176.7, but you nees traditional weight machine to measure so in my case I don't feel really any difference measuring at home in the wall, rather the error supporting the thing on the floor and posture of degrees in my head

Sorry, but I'm doing a study and footballers don't lie as much as you say. Don't be worry about size in morning or night, we many people are not changing more than 0.4 cm... and official height is morning in footballers.
Torres 185
Raul 180
Beckham 181
Cesc Fabregas 179
Puyol 178
Seedorf 177

Just notice that sometimes heights come from the early times when footballers are 18 yeaes old... so besides some players lying and adding 2 extra cm we have players down sized

I remember once reading an official celtic fc article and they had this player called scott brown very precisely as 6ft 1/2 inch. It was madness, the guy is several inches shorter...
184 Matt said on 22/Sep/15
@Joe Fraser Forster nothing over 198 imo, Compared to 192ish Hart, he doesn't have much more than 2 inches on him. Welbeck around 182-183. Someone lower down put Forster at 197.5 which i would say is about right.
Rory said on 20/Sep/15
Ok fair enough..im a little surprised i would have expected more 183.6 or even a little more for Rakitic..going to be interesting now though to compare others with him now we know hes a weak 6 footer.

@Rob would you create a page dedicated to FERNANDO TORRES? He' s not one of the best footballer of our time but his height is one of the most debatable..

Editor Rob
he can look 6ft 3 or 3.5 range
spainmen said on 16/Sep/15
@Appe 6 ft0.5
Rakitic was measured at 182.6 in the Barcelona medical, this measurement was taken in the morning so 5 ft11.75(near 6ft) as Rob says is spot on
Rory said on 16/Sep/15
I think Rakitic is a legit 184, he has a clear inch or more on Suarez who is a solid 5'11, and doesn't seem much smaller than tall guys like pique and busquets..he also edges 182 vermaelan, and i think if he was only 183 that wouldnt be so obvious..i think he's 6'0.25-6'0.5. Torres in that pic looks the same range actually.
Appe 6ft 0.5 said on 16/Sep/15
@rob Rakitic has a big head infact! This explains another time why small head guys seem taller than what they really are
Appe 6ft 0.5 said on 14/Sep/15
@rob @all is Ivan Rakitic a legit 184cm guy as listed? I think he is very near this mark after watching a many photos, maybe between 183 and 184
Editor Rob
I've never looked much at him, apart from watching matches, but he gives off a smaller impression than what he appears to be (near to 6ft)...maybe he has a big head.

Rory said on 2/Sep/15
@appe 6ft 0.5..if Suarez is 5'11, like i believe him to be, then I think Torres looks 6'0.5, which is what I think he is too. Thats what the difference looked like between them in that charity match. Godin has always looked a tall guy id say he was 6'1.25, I didnt see the shots of him and Torres together but id have thought yh thered be near an inch between them.

Editor Rob
I feel that is too high for him, I would have went with 187.
Appe 6ft 0.5 said on 2/Sep/15
I' ve just visited the Atletico Madrid official site ( players page ) and I am positive impressed to see many players stats like heights and weights are changed from the past. They probably re-measured them like every club could do every year and they upload new stats.
Fernando Torres for example is now listed 185cm x 79kg (before listed 186cm x 81kg), but also other players as Saul Niguez, Thiago Mendes and Godin are changed; probably is the sign we are right when we discuss about Torres height who we judge between 184 and 185cm (probably 185cm listing comes from a morning measurement): no chance he' s under 184 anyway.
appe 6ft0.5 said on 1/Sep/15
@Rory you re right! do you think that, next to Suarez, Fernando Torres could look 185cm tall? I don' t know exactly how tall is Diego Godin but Yesterday I saw Siviglia-Atletico match and he was about an inch taller than Torres when they took the squad photo before the match.

5 11 is still above average in most countries though there are some countries in Europe where that would be average but it is a minority of nations.

really i would still say 5 ft 8 - 5 ft 9 is still the world average for a male.

I think in Spain or Barcelona in Suarez case, 5'11 is tallish, in London its top end of average for a 20 something.

Rory said on 19/Aug/15
Yh true I think Suarez is deceptively tall, many i think would assume he was 5'9 range without knowing, but watching him at barcelona around small guys like Messi,Alba,Iniesta and Neymar hes significantly taller.
Height813 said on 17/Aug/15
I doubt Luis Suarez is anything below 5'11''. I'm with Rory on this one.

He is surprisingly taller than you think. I think Sturridge just edges him out at 181cm.

Gerrard is roughly 6'0'' when he stands with good posture.
Rory said on 15/Aug/15
No come on Suarez isnt 5'10 anyone can see that, hes near enough 5'11 if not a solid 5'11, and Gerrard is minimum 182cm forget 181cm. Sturridge no less than a flat 5'11. Personally I think these guys heights are pretty easy to sus out, Suarez being around 5'11 is pretty much set in stone.
Claim 6 foot 1, actually 184.5 said on 14/Aug/15
I still stand by my claims regarding Sturridge and Shaw of 180 and 179.5 respectively. Shaw may be less than that even but I'll stick with it.
Height183 said on 14/Aug/15
I still think Gerrard can pass for 6'0'', at worst 5'11.75''

Stevie G doesn't have the best posture either.
Laf said on 13/Aug/15
You may be right, but I'd still say 178-179 range for Sturridge, and the same for Suarez. Gerrard is more 181 range for me, could be 6 ft as Rob and other people say, but the most I would say is 182.

I just saw the CL final from 2008 the other day, and I think Hargreaves is hard to pin down. What would you say Rob? A tad shorter or taller than 5'10?
Editor Rob
roughly around 5ft 10, hard to say whether much above/below, I saw a photo of him and darren fletcher and he looked 3 inches smaller.
MD said on 13/Aug/15
A little interjection, here, but @Rory, go to Steven Gerrard's page here. Not a huge difference, but I think I've posted enough pictures to show Gerard is not quite a full 6'0". So, if you're going to base anything off of him, just do it without the basing it off a strong 6'0" height, because he's not quite that.
Height183 said on 12/Aug/15
Daniel Sturridge has always looked a Cm or two shorter than Gerrard. I'd say he's exactly 5'11.25''. He can't be any less than that.
Rory said on 10/Aug/15
Click Here theres no way Gerrard has 2 inchs on Sturridge.
Rory said on 10/Aug/15
Actually I have to admit having a second look at Shaw, he can appear 5'10 range you might be spot on there, but i cnt see anything below 5'11 for Sturridge, hes the same height as Suarez, if not he edges him.
Rory said on 10/Aug/15
Laf you presumably think Suarez is 5'9.5 and Gerrard is 5'10.5 then...because Sturridge edges Luis Suarez (180/181cm)and is only just edged by 6 ft Gerrard..just go on google images to verify that..so yh if Sturridge is 178, then Gerrard is 179 and Suarez is 177...
Rory said on 9/Aug/15
Welbeck is taller than 183 as well, id say 184/185.

Rory: Find some pictures to convince me that these players are that tall.

I can't see anything over 5'10 range for both of them.

@Claim 6 foot 1, actually 184.5: I wouldn't say I agree with all of them, but that's not too bad. I've seen people on here way off with their heights.
Claim 6 foot 1, actually 184.5 said on 7/Aug/15
@Laf I agree Lallana always comes accross as being taller than 172 but I think that might be due to his fluid Zidane-esque playing style, saw a photo and can't find the link now and he was bang-on level with baines standing next to him. Walker may well be a 180 but I knocked him down slightly because he has often been listed as 178
Rory said on 7/Aug/15
Sturridge is 5'11.5, don't know where you're getting 178cm from and Shaw is 6 foot.
Laf said on 6/Aug/15
@Claim 6 foot 1, actually 184.5:

I think you're right about Rooney being a weak 5'9.
Shaw more a flat 5'10, same for Owen Hargreaves.
I think Baines is closer to 5'7 than 5'8, and Wilshere a flat 170.

Lallana I see taller than 172, more like 174 range, and Walker a strong 5'11. Ashley Young more 176 than 175 too.
Sturridge 178 in my book.

I think Szczesny just hasn't got great posture, maybe 196 is slightly pushing it but I genuinely believe he's 195cm. Mertesacker looks about 6cm taller. Cech also has poor posture which makes Giroud and others look taller but when he's stood straight, he's easily 196cm
Mcann said on 30/Jul/15
Diego Costa is strongly 186. Not the 1.88 because some in the soccer websites said that he is 1.88.
Rory said on 30/Jul/15
Yh and on that same pic Thiago Motta (6'1.5),looks like he edges him. I think 6'1 is fair for Costa, looks the same height as Ivanovic at chelsea who has always looked 6'1..and Jordan Henderson for the record, another 6'1 guy who looked identical in height to Costa.

Height183 said on 28/Jul/15
@Appe 6ft 0.5: He probably could me edge out because I'm 183cm. But if he edges you out, then I'm sorry you can't be 184cm, you've probably measured yourself wrong. The picture with your 184cm has probably has bad camera angles, otherwise your friend isn't 184cm either. Torres is a 6'0'' - 6'0.25'' man at best.
Rory said on 28/Jul/15
Diego costa is 6'1 perhaps 6'1.25..definitely not the 6'2 hes often listed though.
Appe 6ft 0.5 said on 28/Jul/15
@Rob do you think Rafa Benitez is 175cm or a little more honestly (he looks 176-177 to me with many players and coaches)? It would be important to value exactly his height to use it as benchmark to estimate many players heights.
jessman said on 27/Jul/15
Mertesacker must be 200cm easily. In team photos he looks 7cm-8cm taller than Szczesny. I think Szczesny is no more than 193cm, can't see 196cm for him.
Appe 6ft 0.5 said on 27/Jul/15
@Height183 I' m sure he would edge you out and probably me too. He edges (1-2 cm) my 184cm friend in the photo he took with him; One thing is sure: he has an impeccable posture in photos.

Hi Rob, I was wondering how tall you think Mertesacker is, he's listed 198cm on every site but easily looks 2 metres as he's 2 inches+ taller than 6'5 guys. Even in the tunnel when Chelsea played Arsenal, he looked taller than Courtois who is 199cm.
Editor Rob
he does generally look 6ft 6.5 range, at times can pull off near 6ft 7.

@Height183 I agree with you about Torres w/ Lampard , but I know at least 5-6 friends who have met him (and two of these friends are height "addicted" like me) and they all told he s 185. Personally I think he s between 184 and 185 if measured in a point of the day, but 184 likelier.

There is no way Torres is that tall! He is just a decent 6'0'' at best. Maybe 6'0.25'' on a good day. This guy was looking shorter than regular 6'0'' guys like Lampard at times and even Gerrard back in his Liverpool days.

Calling a flat 6'0'' guy like Torres 6'1'', is an insult to legit 6'1'' guys.

Id say Torres out of bed after a good 8/9 hr sleep would measure exactly 186cm straight out of bed, although on a lesser nights sleep measuring slightly under e.g 185.8cm is probable.His lowest measurement is probably about 183.8-184cm imo.

I think the 181 mark fits him perfectly but I wouldn't rule out he could be also 182. 180 seems too low for him IMO

appe6ft0.5

I think the final picture i showed full body suggests Torres might just edge Lampard as well, i mean of course its not going to be obvious because my point is yh, Lampards a strong 6 ft and Torres is 6'0.5, so the difference isnt that noticeable. I have compared Kuyt with Torres in the past and again, id say Torres just edges him mainly, yes that pic you posted does Torres no favors and Kuys looks taller but many other comparisons between the two suggest to me Torres might just edge him. Kuyt and Lampard are probably within a few milimetres of one another and Torres 0.25 or so taller than both.

appe 6ft0.5 said on 13/Jul/15
@Rory Imo only from the first photo you can see Torres slightly higher. Anyway, I' m pretty sure Torres can' t be a flat 183 or 183,5 so let's say a legit 184 (I heard many people saying he is 185 at least). To me there is also a good possibility that Frank is a legit 184 guy (he' s taller than Gerrard and in many photos he doesn' t look more than an inch under Terry who is 186 or 187)
Height183 said on 13/Jul/15
They are both roughly the same height Rory. One of them could be a hair taller than the other, it's really hard to spot. Generally speaking, Fernando can look 6'0'' - 6'0.5''
Rory said on 11/Jul/15
Height183, generally speaking Torres looks like he edges Lampard, its easier to find pics of that than where Lamps looks taller. IMO Torres is 6’0.5, Lampard is 6’0, perhaps 6’0.25. Such as these...

Why post a pic where lampard is tiptoeing ? No tbh from what ive seen of lamps and Torres together,6'0.5 Fernando Torres just edges him.

@Height 183 these are Good photos, anyway when played for Chelsea, Fernando has always looked very similar to Frank in height. The point is if Frank is more 184 than 183. Infact, IMO, Frank is taller than 182-183 Gerrard: if Frank is 184, let's say Torres is 184 too.

Fernando is no taller than 6'0'' flat honestly. He is the same height as Super Frank.

@Rob, would you exclude the fact that Fernando Torres could be 185cm at 5-6 pm? I mean... I know two guys who have met him recently; both of them told me they were kind of surprised from his height (they probably thought he was 5' 11 instead they gave me the opinion he' s like 6' 1). Thank you rob
Editor Rob
I think he is a little shorter than ronaldo, I beleive he might end up in 184 range.

Rob, is a solid 6'2'' for Harry Kane a good estimate?
Editor Rob
seems a reasonable shout for big Harry.

Hello guys! I want to ask you all : if stand side by side who between Fernando Torres and Karim Benzema would edge the other one? And how much would he edge? Thank you
Rory said on 21/Jun/15
No kanes 6'1.5-6'2.
MusaTroll said on 21/Jun/15
How tall do you think Manuel Neur is?
I think he is 193 cm/6'4"
kaplaaa said on 20/Jun/15
Harry Kane 6"1 ish?
OneNamePlease said on 18/Jun/15
Marcelo is 172 and Modric 170
Brax said on 15/Jun/15
Rob,how tall do you think Luka Modric is? He's listed as 5'9" (175cm) but to me he looks more like 5'7"( 170cm). The reason is because he is smaller than the players who are listed smaller than 5'9"for example Marcelo is 5'8.5 but he is taller than Modric who is listed as 5'9". Also Modric is more than 3" shorter than 6'0" (183cm) Gareth Bale.
Zach said on 2/Sep/12
Yeah RVP is def over 6ft.
Dejavu said on 1/Sep/12
I am pretty sure that Van Persie is taller than 6'0. He is inbetween 6'1 and 6'2. He looks around 4 inches taller than Ferguson
Charlie said on 14/Aug/12
Rob, and what about a new page for Mourinho?
Editor Rob
maybe I'll think on it
Charlie said on 14/Aug/12
Rob, will you downgrade Mourinho to 173 or his page is dead?
Editor Rob
a deadpage i'm afraid
Charlie said on 14/Aug/12
Rob, you still think Mourinho is 5'9.5?
there aren't many good photos of him to compare height with players but to me he can look anywhere from 5'7.75 to 5'11
Editor Rob
I think 5ft 8 range for him is probably the best shout for Jose
Charlie said on 13/Aug/12
Rob, how tall does Jose Mourinho look with Al Pacino

Editor Rob
I'd say 5ft 5 and 5ft 8 might fit these 2

No way Balotelli is 6'3! I think he could be near 6'2 but no more...
Jack said on 1/Aug/12
@Zach he was listed at 190 cm...
Zach said on 31/Jul/12
I could've sworn Balotelli used to get listed as 6'3 back in his Inter Milan days...
1.85 m, 83 kg said on 30/Jul/12
Joe Hart - 6'3 1/2", Nemanja Vidic - 6'2 1/2", Vincent Kompany - 6'3", John Terry - 6'1", Philipp Lahm - 5'7", Ashley Cole - 5'7 1/2", Yaya Toure - 6'3", Xavi - 5'7", Lionel Messi - 5'6 1/2", Wayne Rooney - 5'9 1/2", Cristiano Ronaldo - 6'1".
SAK said on 17/Jun/12
@WalkingTall 6 ft 3.25, the 3rd link you posted is good. It clearly shows Balotelli is around 6ft1.5 mark. And Bonucci is listed as 6ft3 on wiki, but this photo shows is more like 6ft1/6ft1.5.
ANDREA[ITA] said on 16/Jun/12
Yeah, I agree with you WalkingTall! He doesnt look under 6'1.5 (186-187)! Some years ago I really thought he was in the 6' range, no more! But today he's looking near the 6'2 mark, most of the time! He's just 22 and maybe he grew a little bit...
WalkingTall 6 ft 3.25 said on 15/Jun/12
Balotelli is 187 minimum i would bet my life on that,seen many,many pictures of him,here are some of them:

Click Here - next to 191 cm buffon looks 187

Click Here - with 191 cm yaya toure looks 188

Click Here - next to 186 cm chiellini looks 187
truth said on 14/Jun/12
Has anybody got any guess on Xavi's height?
Martin said on 12/Jun/12
I have noticed that Manchester City is a club of giants. Everyone seems to be around the 6'2 mark...which I find hard to believe. Seems like they are a bit over billed.
ANDREA[ITA] said on 12/Jun/12
Rob, are you sure o_o? On the net, there are some pics with Beckham and he has at least 2 inches on him! He towers over Mourinho, he's much taller than Cassano in the pics Jack posted and doesnt look much shorter than legit 191-192 Buffon! Maybe 6'1.25? 6' seems too low for him...
Editor Rob
yeah 6ft flat is likely to be low - as I said, he could just be generalising and he's a bit taller.
Jack said on 12/Jun/12
Click Here here with 5'9" Cassano and 6'3" Buffon Balotelli really looks in 6'2"(188 cm) range.
ANDREA[ITA] said on 11/Jun/12
Rob, I imagine you know Balotelli. He's listed everywhere at 189, you think he's that tall? To me, he looks a bit shorter, maybe 186-188 range?
Editor Rob
Mario said he was 6ft in an interview. There's a chance he's a bit over 6ft and was just saying he can take care of himself cos he's 6ft, but not a chance in hell he's 189cm
lol93 said on 10/Jun/12
Rob what about Cesc fabregas? in todays match with Italy a display listed him as 5'9 tall.here is with messi Click Here and here with ed sheeran Click Here what do you think?
Editor Rob
somewhere in 5ft 9 range is possible for him, not anywhere near 5ft 11, 5ft 9-9.5 maybe.
