Ballon d'Or

[pea]

He didn't retire he's at besiktas, if I'm thinking of the right guy.

Where the F is Kebe?

[soggy biscuit]

Can see Diego Forlan taking 2nd or 3rd place.

Suarez deserves it more than him and isn't even nominated after scoring 60 something goals last season and saving uruguay with that brilliant save on the line to deny Ghana an injury time victory.

[prostak]

Not to mention Milito. When your former club join the outrage at your omission, France Football have probably made an oversight. Especially if you didn't actually play for that club during the relevant period.

Hugely disagree.

Messi, Xavi & Iniesta named as the 3 finalists

Scoring goals in the Dutch league =/= Ballon D'Or winning form.

1. Messi
2. Xavi
3. Iniesta

Casillas can't vote for Xavi or Iniesta though? But Ronaldo > Messi does stink a little.

Still better than John Terry's voting last time around...

Argentina, Ireland & Denmark (amongst others) have lodged complaints with FIFA as they were not asked for their nominations.

[Wax Jacket]

it's a load of total shit anyway

[prostak]

Saw a blog suggesting that under the old rules, before the merger, Sneijder would have won. Messi would have still won the FIFA award, but the Dutchman got more votes from journalists.

[TBM]

Also LOL @ Van Bommel not understanding how it works.

Whats that all about - "invalid vote"

[Y21_Royal]

How do they decide who in the media gets to vote?

[6ft Kerplunk]
