Should be Maldini

Probably Zizou

What about the headbutting thing in the 2006 WC ?? Have you forgotten about it? That's not a recipe for an award winning individual, is it?

It's not a fairplay award, it's the best player of the decade award, the headbutt has nothing to do with his footballing ability.

When you are given an award everything is being taken into consideration... quantitative as well as qualitative variables are important I assure you.

Less important than the fact that Ronaldinho only had three good seasons whilst Zizou was consistently amazing.

CA is right about the bias though, Messi and Cron got 2nd and 3rd didn't they? They only came good in the last 3 years, before that it was just potential.

How come no one has mentioned this! Deco deserves 2nd or 3rd atleast, playing amazing with Porto, best player in Barca in our most succesful season in that era! First player to win the best midfielder in the champions league with two different teams, C'mon!

 

[FCB_Titi_LB]

[FlyLo]

He's so far from the Dinho of 2006 and before.. How can people not see this?

 

[beautifulgame]

What does that matter? He's giving a master-class in pure football, why can't people see that?

 

[FlyLo]

Maybe because he isn't?

 

[beautifulgame]

I can't help you then.
