mellow.gif 11goals in 17match is nothing,if then so,i bet michael owen should be inside the list the year before this, he scored 7goals in 11 games. and not to mention a hat trick . thats before he gone injured for the rest of the season.
ps:i think the award is more to judgement on player's effect towards the team. let's forget about they didnt put up players with superb performance last season (such as totti) . but the winner definitely is based on player's hardwork and effect towards the team.so what did van persie did other than scoring 11goals in 17matches? he didnt features in carling cup too,even if arsenal make it to the final.

edit: aaaa,no hard feeling just opinion biggrin.gif

It's not van Persie's goals ratio I'm talking about, it's the ridiculousness and absurdity of the nominees that made it. Again I'll quote myself about Henry's inclusion in the list. Ronaldinho and Eto'o ain't exactly stellar last season, but due to their fame (and their club's popularity) they just could not be dropped from the list.

If you're talking about players' effect on the team, well as Chrisky puts it, Totti should have been in there, same case with Fabregas. And if Torres deserves to be there, then surely David Villa would not be behind him anyway.

Again, FIFA World Player my foot.

You're right about some of the players on the list is because they are star studded players. Some of the players are in because they play for a big club. However they need to fill up with player so FIFA choose to select big name players. So they failed to recognize some of the players that manage to carry out their duties for their club. This kind of players are the unsung heroes in their club. I think this kind of player should be given recognition.

Agreed. FIFA World Player my foot.

FIFA is merely nominating players based on popularity & fame. How could they left out Totti and why the hell Thuram & R.Marquez did make into the list? Ridiculous.

His younger brother called him "Caca" during younger days because he can't pronounce "Ricardo". Since then everyone call him Kaka. It doesn't mean anything in their native language.

What kind of list is this? No Totti, Ibrahimovic and David Villa.

Look like the winner will either Kaka or C. Ronaldo.

I think based on current form and contribution to clubs and national team, Kaka should win it followed by Lionel Messi and C. Ronaldo.
