Its a bit weird lah considering the nominees... Goalkeeper I can
understand lah but Defender and Midfielder... I thought there were
better choices...
Another thing I don't get it is, why was Ronaldo and Messi in
the Strikers position when they were midfielders?
UEFA club goalkeeper of the year: Manuel Almunia (Arsenal), Petr
Cech (Chelsea), Manuel Neuer (FC Schalke 04), Jose Reina
(Liverpool), Edwin van der Sar (Manchester United).
UEFA club defender of the year: Jamie Carragher (Liverpool), Rio
Ferdinand (Manchester United), Carles Puyol (Barcelona), John Terry
(Chelsea), Nemanja Vidic (Manchester United).
UEFA club midfielder of the year: Michael Essien (Chelsea), Cesc
Fabregas (Arsenal), Steven Gerrard (Liverpool), Frank Lampard
(Chelsea), Paul Scholes (Manchester United).
UEFA club forward of the year: Didier Drogba (Chelsea), Lionel
Messi (Barcelona), Cristiano Ronaldo (Manchester United), Wayne
Rooney (Manchester United), Fernando Torres (Liverpool).
Midfielders pushed up to Strikers. I would think it's cause of
the goals they've contributed. Who knows. Soccer organizations
nowadays also half arsed one. /shrugs
I'd think Vidic, Fabregas, Van Der Sar and Ronaldo get the
awards. Not cause I'm biased but... performance wise, it's the
medals and trophies that count no?
