Got to be Thierry Henry , hasn't it ?

 

[D'Angelo Saxon]

I think the last one on your list is gonna cakewalk it.

 

[JJ McClure]

Well as David Lee is not on the list it's got to be Terry Henry.

 

[B.M.F]

Think it will be between terry henry, Shevchenko who has been superb for Milan, Nedved who again has been outstanding and my tip for the lot being Ronaldinho who has single handedly turned the fortunes of Barcelona around and has made them great again

 

[REDLAND]

Roy Makaay (Holland)


easy that one

 

[Braders]

its gotta be hasn't it

 

[Hiney]

It would be cruel indeed if Thierry Henry didn't get it, but given FIFA's obsession with Brazilian footballers who play in La Liga, it could end up in Ronaldinho's lap

 

[Dave the OAP]

Andy Johnson?

 

[Marshy]

Ronaldinho sadly.

 

[itszamora]

It's between Ronaldinho and Thierry Henry in my opinion. I think TH is the better player, but Ronaldinho has played a massive part in Barcelona's revival so is also in with a great chance. Either would be a worthy winner.

 

[Saint Lennard]

Ronaldinho - because he is more photogenic than the likes of Henry or Currie.

 

[Scoffers]

None of the English players, that's for sure.

In terms of all round ability, i'd go for Terrence Henry!

 

[Simster]

Henry's backheel goal against Chortleton last week made me chortle.

 

[NMH]

Ronaldinho - because he is more photogenic than the likes of Henry or Currie.

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

how is giggs there?

 

[SK1NT]

why is owen in the list! will they never learn

 

[Del Boy]

How do Owen and Beckham make the list

 

[Del Boy]

Anyone notice how they are pretty much all attacking players? Ashley Cole and many other defenders have been awesome!!

 

[interjambo]

It would be cruel indeed if Thierry Henry didn't get it, but given FIFA's obsession with Brazilian footballers who play in La Liga, it could end up in Ronaldinho's lap

Why the hell would it be cruel if Thierry Henry didn't get it?

Superb in EUro 2004, wasn' he? Not

Adriano for me

 

[Napper]

I think Deco will be top 3 purely for winning the Chump league + Portugal getting to the final
