And Bayern Munich is one of the world’s biggest clubs, you obviously don’t know football if you don’t know that. They’ve won the European cup 4 times, the UEFA cup once and the European Cup Winners Cup once.

Best Player, Ribery said he deserves a higher ranking, NOT to be voted the Best Player in the world. It’s very simple. These awards are given to players playing in only three countries: Spain, Italy, England. And usually just Spain or Italy. Other leagues are ignored by the world media. These awards are voted by people (journalists, players, etc.) who actually pay little attention to most football around the world, they just pay attention to the big names and leagues and that’s it. Ribery definitely deserves a higher ranking. He achieved a LOT last season in one of the world’s biggest leagues, in Europe’s most populous country. But if you play in Germany, you’re ignored.

i think ribery will be ranked higher if France plays better again like ages ago [bye]. and 16th is not that bad and he should not be so big-headed, he should make a joke of it like he always does.
btw whats up with gourcuff??*cries*? i thought he is zidanish and has a shy-persona ‘mysterious’ and doesnot ‘want to reveal too much’

Ribery is a very fine player but he has a way to go before he’ll get more votes for Best Player in the World. More specifically, he’s going to have to lead Bayern to more success or go to a bigger team. Let’s face it – the top three vote-getters for the Ballon d’Or came from Big Clubs…
