FIFA World Player of the Year Nominees

[Andrejs]

Ah come on, if players like Drogba ,Maldini, Carlos ,Owen , Pires etc. etc are there, why cant Becks be there

 

[dannyeli]

Maldini obviusly deserve to be there, at his age and playing at the level the played last year and winning the scudetto....

 

[Andrejs]

Well yeah, guess your right, hes "kinda" old and is playing really good for hes age i do respect him alot...

 

[Ebonix]

From what I've heard and seen, it should be Ronaldinho, then Rooney and Kaka

 

[enigma]

Ronaldinho.. Ok.
Kaka.. Ok.
Rooney..

 

[Andrejs]

enigma i somewhat agree about Rooney but i also dont understand why is Baros there.Rooney and Baros both had great Euro but what has Baros ever done at the club level?

Most of them dont deserve being there, it should be between Henry, Ronaldinho and Nedved...

The nomination list for this year's FIFA World Player of the Year shows once again why the Ballon d'Or is a more credible barometer of footballing excellence over a period of 12 months. Some of the players only made the shortlist based on past reputation (Beckham, Raúl, et al.). Others are only there because of what their country did at Euro 2004 (Zagorakis, Figo, et al.). Really, there is only one candidate for this year's honour, and he wears number 14 for club and number 12 for country, and thats none other than Thierry Henry. If he doesn't make it to the final three, then this award will be discredited by the remaining few who actually recognize this poorly designed piece of crap as a barometer of footballing excellence.

 

[Dream Team]

Vicente is the most underrated player on the earth

have you ever seen Ronaldinho ?

And Henry sucked at Euro.

 

[Vedran-10]

David Beckham (England)
Cafu (Brazil)
Paolo Maldini (Italy)
Michael Owen (England)
Raul (Spain)
Ronaldo (Brazil)



One better than the other.It's hard to choose.

 

[cyrex]

Ronaldinho
Henry
Deco

 

[cheesegrater]

So many biased nominations based solely on reputation and how popular the players are. FIFA really pisses me off.

 

[Atlas]

Steven Gerrard or Baros should win it

Pires scored 19 goals from midfield and created about a dozen and was a big part of championship winning team. If you wanna talk about players who shouldn't be there start with Ryan Giggs.

Ryan Giggs > Robert Pires

 

[joni84]

Henry, Ronaldinho, Kaka, are my favourites, also Milan Baros

Zagorakis?????? i dont know why is he nominated, because of the Euro???? then they have to put to the entire greek team, apart of that, individually , he do nothing

Gotta hate these lame personal attacks...

"Pires shouldnt be there"
"Shut up ****, United sucks, Giggs shouldnt be there"

Did i said anything about Giggs should win it?no.

 

[rony31]

Ronaldinho, Shevchenko and Gerrard are the top 3, unless you count international matches, then take Sheva and Gerrard off there...

Ronaldinho will win

 

[-William-]

Raul?

From the spanish league players it should go to Ayala or Vicente

 

[Booger]

But you clearly had a go at Pires who was far superior to Giggs last season. Even the most blinkered manc will admit that.
