FIFA World Player of the Year: Ronny scoops it for the second year running.

1. Ronny
2. Lampard
3. Eto'o
4. Henry
5. Adriano
6. Sheva
7. Gerrard
8. Kaka
9. Maldini
10. Drogba
11. Ballack
12. Ronaldo
13. Zizou
14. Zlatan
15. Deco
16. Riquelme
17. Robinho
18. Becks
19. Rooney
20. Cristiano Ronaldo

The female player of the year went to Germany's Birgit Prinz, beating Marta (Brazil); and Shannon Boxx (USA).

ESPN Soccernet's take.

 

[copious]

Hmm interesting only 1 defender in that top 20 list.

 

[bJ_Bhoy 87]

And no keepers. Im surprised Cech didnt get a nod.

Di Canio got a ban for the fascist salute. They are touchy about that sort of thing in Italy, it seems.

 

[RUB!X]

lol, we defenders are always left out of everything !!

 

[bazookajoe]

Pfft pretty stupid list. Drogba?
And Lampard states that coming 2nd is 'an ultimate accolade'. Wouldn't the ultimate accolade be to come first? Pfft, some footballers are pretty stupid

 

[LMF^^]

So Barca have now confirmed they are after Henry. I think therez a big chance of that happenin, unless of courz the Arse win the UCL.

hmm i watched a documentary on barca on a cathay flight a few weeks ago, and the barca execs were pretty bankrupt after signing Ronaldinho. I wonder where they will get the money for Henry :s

they are still poor :|

thats why they were negotiating the deal with Beijing govt for sponsorship..lol

 

[bJ_Bhoy 87]

Oh, Barca will find the moolah. Ronnie says they also want Lampard, but itll cost Barca $11billion to get him out of Mourinho's arms.

And copious, it looks as if your beloved West Ham are increasing their Israeli contingent with a striker from Maccabi Haifa.

Haven't they made the agreement already...?

Indeed they have, makes me think that Teddy's legs are not gonna hold up all season and we'll need some backup if we push for Europe . I guess he is for the future, with Bellion and Aliadiare not giving much help.

 

[Komit]

Barca have Henry AND Lampard in their sights. Good luck with that.

geeze they chuck any old shit in there don't they

Drogba?
Beckham?
Zidane?
Robinho?

i'm starting to heave - it's all based on name. what i am surpirsied is they didn't include Ronaldo in the list for the Ronaldo Award.

See the way they hnd out this award is. they give it to ronaldo, unless there's another brazilian who is better, who is also called ronaldo mind you.

 

[johnny_87]

Where were guys like Juninho from Lyon? Forlan? Terry?

 

[bJ_Bhoy 87]

Forlan? Pffft. Juninho deserves to be there tho, im surprised none of the regular player poachers have been linked to him. Id rate him the best dead ball specialist on the planet right now. And Robinho does deserve his spot, hes the sole reason Santos won their title.

 

[johnny_87]

I was just throwin names around BJ_Bhoy. I mean he did finish =1st with Henry for the golden boot (and scored 1 more goal than Eto'o, who finished 3rd).
