slightly better list than fifa, but one or two disputable nominations where you ask are they in here due to their performances or their media reputation? and some where you just ask what the fuck?

nice to see man united making up 10% of the nominations with our attack. i fancy either tevez, rooney and ronaldo to make the top 3 this year.
