Fifa World Player of the Year 2009 - Who gets YOUR vote?

[SirDouglasLoft]

Xavi without a doubt.

 

[Mellotron]

Ronaldo is different, he's a class above. Reckon he'll bang in a goal a game at least in Spain.

Half the players in the Spanish primera liga are prolly Championship standard over here.

He WAS a class above in the Prem, we'll see if he is or not in Spain...

John Terry? Are they having a laugh? I suppose he is England captain though...

Between, Xavi, Messi and Iniesta for me too.

I don't understand this anti-John Terry malarky. Yes he's a bit of a c unt as a bloke but he has been immaculate so far this year for Chelsea and for England. He may not be the quickest, but he is two-footed and his distribution has improved no end. He is obviosuly a very good captain as two Premiership titles and his Engalnd record show.

It's voted for by International coaches and captains so I reckon they know what they are talking about (Ballack aside!)

I'm not sure Chappers is fishing, having spoken to him about football for the last 17 years, I can confirm he knows f*** all about it.

I'm sure if someone searched through the threads they could find some fantastic Luke Moore or Anton Ferdinand should be mainstays of the England team posts

Pah, get em over for a full season of getting booted up in the air and see how good they are then. The Spanish league is far too pussy and allows these 'brilliant' players to express themselves more. Messi and Xavi would struggle to get into the Top 4 sides in the Prem. I'd rather have Carrick than Xavi any day.

try watching La Liga for a few weeks when Barca come up against lower teams Xavi and Messi get kicked all over the place get up and wear the team down with passing and movement.

 

[Safe.]

I hate Puyol, he is so overrated.

 

[blue and white army]

Xavier Hernández i Creus.

 

[SeagullTim]

Yoann Gourcuff should at least be on the list after practically winning Ligue 1 by himself and breaking Lyon's 6 year domination.

True, the fact that Ballack is on the list and he isn't is pretty stupid.

I'm not particularly anti Terry, but just don't think he's as great a centre back as the media believe.

 

[CHAPPERS]

Gourcuff isn't that good, the French 'ligue' is just PISH. He'd only get into a bottom half club in England like Hull or Blackburn.

Xavi by a mile

Yeah how he's won Champions League defender of the year in three successive years is beyond me.

I'm not surprised you've come to that ridiculous conclusion looking at some of your other posts on this thread.

The English league isn't the only good league in the world FFS.

 

[New Carpet?]

I'm jumping on the Xavi bandwagon, he's such an intelligent footballer, always two or three moves ahead of the game.

By far the most intelligent passer of a ball I've seen in my 28-year lifetime, even better than Zidane, Hagi, Rijkaard, Hoddle or Minton.

And he's getting better every year. I will be backing him for Player of The Tournament for the next World Cup.

 

[Trigger]

Has to be Xavi, he's been IMMENSE.

 

[champion7]

Messi for me,he's just pure class,even on an off day he's still better than most world class players.
