Max 10% of transfer when on the selling side.

Max 3% on buying side.

Read about this this morning.

I think Messi winning it confirmed it was bollocks before this info was put out

 

What would the result have been if the votes were counted?

 

No idea.

 

Not in front of Messi then?

If those two votes were counted he would have won by three.

 

See Diouf is still bitter about wasting his career away.

Apparently we bottled the league last year because at one point we had a commanding led over city and he regrets joining us as he could have gone to Madrid or Barcelona.

Shame, we all wish you went there as well and we got anelka.

 

Apparently others have said that their votes show them voting Messi as well despite them not having voted for him...

not like fifa to have any controversy when it comes to voting

 

The first player from Senegal we had.. he disappointed himself.
