    Gareth Bale (Real Madrid), Karim Benzema (Real Madrid), Diego Costa (Chelsea), Thibaut Courtois (Chelsea), Cristiano Ronaldo (Real Madrid), Mario Gotze (Bayern Munich), Eden Hazard (Chelsea), Zlatan Ibrahimovic (PSG), Andres Iniesta (Barcelona), Toni Kroos (Real Madrid), Philipp Lahm (Bayern Munich), Javier Mascherano (Barcelona), Lionel Messi (Barcelona), Thomas Muller (Bayern Munich), Manuel Neuer (Bayern Munich), Neymar (Barcelona), Paul Pogba (Juventus), Sergio Ramos (Real Madrid), Arjen Robben (Bayern Munich), James Rodriguez (Real Madrid), Bastian Schweinsteiger (Bayern Munich), Angel di Maria (Man United), Yaya Toure (Man City)

    Who would be in your top ten? In no particular order, mine would be:

    Ronaldo
    Ibra
    Kroos
    Lahm
    Messi
    Muller
    Neuer
    Robben
    Pogba
    Bale
    Rodriguez

    Courtois the only keeper on the list. Maybe swap Neymar for someone and consider Suarez but he is not on list.

  3. If Bale wins it, that'll be a massive compliment to Spurs.

    Mario Gotze (Bayern Munich),
    Toni Kroos (Real Madrid),
    Philipp Lahm (Bayern Munich),
    Lionel Messi (Barcelona),
    Thomas Muller (Bayern Munich),
    Manuel Neuer (Bayern Munich),
    Arjen Robben (Bayern Munich),

    Bastian Schweinsteiger (Bayern Munich)

    That would be my top 10 in no particular order.

    Tbh I'd quite like to see Neuer win it.

    Agree with that but would swap Ibra for Schweini or Gotze and possibly Pogba.

    Be great to see the sweeper-keeper win it, but I guess Ron will.

    No Aguero, Ya ya, Silva, Kompany on the list.

    And no De Gea, UIR will be livid.

    We should include Di Maria on the top ten list just to placate him over De Gea/Courtois <laugh>

    He was very good last season and has carried that on, the partnership with him and Cahill is something that you'll need to replace soon.

    Stop being greedy. Skrtel for £25 million would do.
