    Can anyone tell me what Evra, Luiz, Terry and Drogba have done this year to justify being in this shortlist? (Except playing for big clubs).

    I'm very surprised Franck Ribery is missing, he destroyed City the other week.

    Does the first two letters of FIFPRO stand for ****in Idiots!

    Well done to Bale.

    Surprised Mario Gotze isn't in there. He is one of the best emerging players I've seen for ages and will be in La Liga or the PL before long I suspect.

    It's voted for by professional players, so it's subjective but I guess it's relatively unbiased.

    The list is a joke.
    Lampard? Terry? Ferdinand? Kaka?

    No doubt these people were playing FIFA 11 or 12 when deciding this list...
