Funny how there's no Goalkeeper on the list. Seems like this year all the goalkeeper sucks. D:
Anyway, Messi gets my vote. I just feel like all the other players does not really impact much (except Xavi I guess)

Personally i dont rate much this European award.....they failed to Award Thierry Henry for all his achievement during arsenal days..
eventou im an arsenal supporter....i do accept the fact that Ryan Giggs deserved all the awards for his commitment 2wards his club and of coz his on fields performance.....
How about Paolo Maldini? 5 champs league titles..still not enuf 2 impress the jury?
