...and my vote goes to Messi.

Its either him or Ronaldo. I want Messi to win.

 

[Duke]

It's cheesy but it's got to be CR for me.

 

[Flipmo]

Casillas.

 

[hizzle?]

That faggot from France Football said that Casillas will never win the Golden Boot.

 

[Bobby Sands]

Torres

 

[2Pax]

It's Ronaldo's, i'll run around my city naked if it goes any other way.

 

[Bobby Sands]

Im surprised Beckham isnt nominated.

 

[Flipmo]

He'll probably get his nomination in Forbes magazine, man of the year.

 

[tHuG $TyLe]

Ronaldo/Messi/Xavi/Casillas.

Any of them please.

lol at Deco. Did he even play half the year at Barca? When he did he was awful.

 

[bacho2]

...Also, John Terry..He helped Chelsea in the CL finals against Man U...scored the penalty kick and most importantly helped England make it through the group stage in the Euros.

But wait...E-n-g-l-a-n-d n-e-v-e-r q-u-a-l-i-f-i-e-d...

 

[Flipmo]

^^ rofl.

A lot of those players don't deserve to be on the list though... They just grab big names, and throw em on there.

Xavi deserves to win one though. Very underrated.

 

[2Pax]

Some of them names are on the list purely because of the players reputation.

 

[Bobby Sands]

^^that always the way. Remember when Beckham was always on the list even if he had a shit season, while Roy Keane was never to be seen.

 

[Illuminattile]

If anybody other than Ronaldo wins it, the whole thing is a farce.

42 goals, Premier League, Champions League. Everyone else can fuck off.

 

[S O F I]

Zlatan Ibrahimovic FTW!

 

[Bobby Sands]

If anybody other than Ronaldo wins it, the whole thing is a farce.

42 goals, Premier League, Champions League. Everyone else can fuck off.

Torres scored 33 goals in open play last season while Ronaldo got 31 and Torres scored the winner in Euro 2008 final, so while ROnaldo will get it, Torres shouldnt be far behind imo.

^Yea to be fair Torres' achievements have been a bit in the shadows to be honest, in any regular season his goal tally would've been World player of the year material but then you can't deny what Ronaldo achieved last year.
