Isegrim 9045 Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 Drogba?! Why is Beckham in it every year> 45720[/snapback] Because it's the national managers of all countries who vote.

Zidane too he done jack shit last year 45743[/snapback] Again, it is national managers who vote. Most of the national managers of the very small countries are just picking the allegedely big names. Very often a lot of nominations don't make any sense, sometimes players there are players on the shortlist who barely kicked a ball due to injuries etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
