FIFA World Player of the Year Shortlist
- Thread starter Illuminattile
- Start date
i just noticed this, what the hell are you on about? Robben has no business? Have you even seen the way he developed this season? Not only at his club, but also in the dutch national squad. Both him and Van der Vaart made great improvements this year.
Robben deserves to be on the list. Period. :thumb:
Darren Bent, current (joint) top goalscorer in the Premiership. He plays for Charlton Athletic.
He was useless (for Chelsea) last year. So far this season he's started to justify the £24m spent on him, but last season he certainly didn't. If you'd brought him up last season I would have said the same thing.
While we're on the topic, why did Jay Jay Okocha get on the list ahead of Tim Cahill, who was outstanding last season and took his team to 4th.

I know who that is.
Me expressing like that is reflection of most of the people right now.He just came up in Charlton and nobody really knows him worldwide and you expect him to be on the list already and season just started and he hasn't played for national team yet.
I don't know whats the time frame like for this FIFA world player of the year award like from when to when but I disagree Drogba being useless last year. why even brought up last year when you talking about this year. and as you say he better this year so what you arguing about.
As far as Tim Cahill, i dont know. just by you saying he was outstanding last year should explain it all. last year.

ONly fifa could pull such a mad list. It's a slap in the face to Nesta or Maldini or any decent defender when they see Carlos on it and not themselves.
Fifa just likes to suck the dick of madrid and are too afraid to actually have an opinion so they base a list on the most recogniseable players,if even that.....

I don't think he should be on the list, just like I don't think Okocha or Drogba should be on the list. However, if Drogba can get on the list purely based on his performance this season, then Bent should be able to as well.
I believe the nominations are based on last season's performance, in which case Drogba has absolutely no place on the list.

FIFA lists sucks, theyre to political, i dont think R. Carlos deserves to be on this list more than anyother defensive players such as Maldini and others.
All lists they made are bs, they only look to some countries and teams, theres a lot of money involved.. lol
As the media behave i will say that Ronaldinho and Kaka are strong names, also Eto´o that made a solid year.

Yeah Drogba blamed tactics last season for his poor form lol..i remember this season when they analised his performance in the CL vs Liverpool and how he gave the ball away needlessy over and over again.
Droga is doing good right now, but i don't rate him and i would have other strikers in the Premiership over him.

Exactly, he's a new man.
He said at the end of last season that he was doing too much defensive work last season
rolleyes which is why he didn't score much. He said he'd be more 'selfish', and I guess it's working for him
