[Lil White Azz]

Fuck that list

[Lunatic]

C.Ronaldo will win

[K.Dub]

I'm hoping for Ronaldinho

[da_notorious_mack]

some of those names in there wont look out of place in maybe the 04 player of the year but seriously...who would vote for lilian thruam as player of the year???...words cant express how shocked i am Fabregas didn't even make the shortlist...im sure with a bit of thought i could think of a few more...i mean no Totti...no Ibrahmovic etc etc

[Machiavelli]

kaka or c. ronaldo is gunna win

[Antonio_]

Cannavaro, Henry, Juninho, Lahm, Marquez, Nesta, Ronaldinho, Thuram, Tevez & Vieira have no reasons to be in that list. I mean they are very good players (some are champs too), but they didn't have a good season at all, with their own clubs. Thuram, Cannavaro and Lahm were embarassing, and Ronaldinho just had his worst season in his career. Henry and Nesta didn't impress at all or were blocked by injuries.. You can't seriously have them in the list and forget about Ibrahimovic, Totti, Fabregas, Toni, Mancini, etc.. c'mon! This list is a joke!

P.S. Kaką should win it anyway.

it will be out of kaka and ronaldo....i think kaka will win it because of his performances in the champions league and them winning it....over a season though i think ronaldo deserves it, noone can deny the quality of the player...but i think kaka is world class and if he does win it i would have no complaints....

about your list, i agree but ronaldhinio does deserve to be on it...even though it was his worst season at barca, he still was better than ALOT if not most players in the world, which just shows his quality and yes i know he didnt have a great season but he was still scoring and creating goals like its nuttin for much of the season....thats my opinion anyway

Yeah, ok. I was just making a point. They candidated players because of their surnames, not because of their performances.
