Marquinhos, Thiago Silva etc are around 3 inches taller than Neymar (who should be around 5'8). I think both aren't much away from 181cm for exemple.
Thiago Silva once looked taller than other listed 179cm such as Alexandro Pato and Ronaldinho and generally taller than Beckham (180cm) too;
5'11 seems fine, more or less 0.25" inches.
Here with no parcial angles, he doesn't look over a inch shorter than Ramos (5'11.75 - 6')

Yeah proportion is a big factor too.
Personally I always think 5’10.5 and above (night) can be considered tall. Or the very least tallish. I guess it does depend on country but my personal opinion I always thought that is good enough to be considered tall.

He could be 179 with weak 6ft Ramos, especially considering Marcelo at 172 ( leaked 171.9 in 2011)

How tall do you think Dani Alves is by the way? He plays with Thiago Silva for the Brazil national team.

I agree with your listing Rob. He's around 5'11 for sure. Why don't you add a page for Marcelo (the guy next to Silva)? Or for Philipp Lahm (possibly the best fullback in the history of football even though he lacked stature & was around 5'7)?

Yes, Ramos is a weak 6'0 and 1-1.25 taller than Thiago Silva

Him and Son Heung Min just looks so tall at 5'11. By themselves they look 6'0.
Agreed, both Son Heung Min and Thiago Silva definitely looked tall at 5'11 and does give a 6'0 look. Both Thiago and Son Heung Min have a really good body proportion. This goes to show that 5'11 is not a short height at all. It is not tall at this modern generation but it definitely does give a tall appearance. I initially thought Thiago was 5'10.25 with Sergio photo that I have posted before but thanks to @Ajax 176.8cm who sent out another photo with Sergio, he did give a look of 180cm-181cm.

The 181 figure doesn't seem that unreasonable to me... He can certainly pull it off with Ibra here: Click Here

Oh wow he is 180-181 cm?? I remember when I first saw him at AC Milan I thought he is easily 183 cm. Then I remember people were debating if he is more 5'11 1/2 (182 cm) range. Surprising to see him at 5'11 flat. 181 is probably a better shout.

How tall do you think Marcelo is? He doesnt look much over 5'7 in the picture above. Although hes been listed as 5'8.5 for several years.

Editor RobClose to 5ft 8 is what I might have went with before.

Great, elegant defender, made a name for himself at Milan. I personally think 181 range is closer, always seemed a strong 5'11. 5'11 is the lowest one can go really i think.

@Ajax oh I see, my bad it looked like Sergio was taller than Thiago by 1.5 inches through one photo but it is possible that Thiago would be at 5’11 but definitely not above 5’11.5.

@Editor Why don't give him 5ft 11.25? It seems Chelsea measured him at that mark. Of course it could be a morning measurement but he still edged out David Beckham.

Editor RobI would think he could have got near that mark at 9-10am range.

You're right, Rob, after taking another look, Silva and Marquinhos seem to edge each other out. So, do you think we'll have a new addition in Marquinhos at 180 cm? Thanks.

Very nice addition, although I don’t believe he is a flat 5’11 as he looks 1.5 inches shorter than Sergio Ramos who I believe looks 5’11.75-6’0. So it looks like Thiago is at the range between 5’10.25-5’10.5 but I will probably give him 5’10.5 or 5’10.75 for morning height.
With Sergio Ramos:

Thanks for adding him, Rob. It's impressive how he's this good with this height and age. His younger version, Marquinhos, is also listed at 183 cm, but struggles to look it even more than Silva. What's your opinion on Marquinhos, 178, 179 cm?
