Bit of a p1ss-take to be honest.

Gyan is included for having a moderately successful world cup, whilst Suarez is omitted despite banging in 49 goals for Ajax last season.

No English players either, which is right. The usual suspects; Lampard, Gerrard, Terry etc have all been sh1te largely over the last 12 months.

What's Gyan doing on there???

It's got to be a Spaniard that wins it. Euro and World Champions. Obviously Barcelona are sublime.

Xavi, Iniesta or Villa?

Or maybe they will pick a boy from Wrexham. He used to be with Man Utd you know? You may have seen him mention it once or twice.

....... or thrice.

........ or a millionce

Anyone know how many games he's played? All been kept rather modestly quiet. :rolleyes:

I think it's a bit of a farce.

No way on earth is Gyan one of the best players in the world. Not last season, not in the summer and not this season. Thank god Kenny Miller didn't play in the WC. If he'd of grabbed a couple of goals in a half decent tournament for Scotland he'd be up there too no doubt!!

:p

The award is about who's had the best year, and he probably qualifies for that title.

Great club form, carried Ghana through on his own, and was just signed for £13m. A pretty good year i'd say ;)

He's not going to win it, but I think he deserves to be on there. (Just)
