Yes Paolo is great a true legend!But I read now that he is out of the Footballer of the year award!!!They say that he doesn't have much chance!!They say that Zidane and Nedved are the favourites.

What the hell..Baresi should've won it..and now even Paolo is getting overlooked?? That's so unfair..defenders are somehow disadvantaged by those of power to decide who wins Ballon d'Or...

Anyway..i'm sure Billy has amassed more than 400..close to 550 is my guess..not sure though...

read what he said again , n relax yourself

However, one of the writers at French newspaper France Football gives a rather different insiders¡¦ view.

Insider's ? sounds fun :D

The race for this award will be a head to head battle between Nedved and Zinedine Zidane,¡¨ Xavier Barret told Tutto sport.

Maldini cannot be given the trophy for what he has done in his career, as the voting concentrates only on what the candidates have done between January 1 and November 30 2003.¡¨

did u happen to watch a football matchin this period of time mister ?

Nedved missed out on the Champions¡¦ League Final due to a ban, but despite eliminating Real Madrid in the semi¡¦s he could be beaten by Zidane in the voting.
:eek: Nedved is not great enuf when being the key factor for Juventus eliminating that so-called star galaxy team ?

¡§Zidane won the Spanish Liga with Madrid , reached the Champions¡¦ League semi-finals and is the leader of the French national side that won all its qualifying matches this year, ¨ insisted the France Football representative.

Spanish La Liga :D Cl semi-finals :D n the qualifying matches :D


Here they go again , make judgment based on names only , the football world is so empty without a Real Madrid player being a champion...Real Madrid rules ! ! !

-------------------
i will be very happy if Maldini wins this , he made a such a fantastic bounce back after how much ppl bashing him since the WC along with Nesta , the best duo central defense of the world ,but Maldini can't be that great without Nesta , neither can Nesta .. being a defender never gives the players enuf respect u deserve , i am fine with that ..

But Nedved he did have an outstanding season last year , u can say Nedved n Buffon led Juventus to the final...well done job for his national team too , but the things that might make him miss this year award is that the Czech NT isn't a big one to name , (compared to te reigning Euro champion for example :D ) n how dare you compare Juventus to Real Madrid? They are the best team in the world , the CL title is nothing if they don't win it ( :D )

Paolo should get a place in the list of 50 best soccer players of all time!
Defenders dont score, they r doing the dirty work for midfielders who lost the ball in midfield or attack
the media are more into goalscoring machines like Raul, Henry all that strikers, also midfielders like Nedved and Zidane and Beckham...
so on
its hard but the attackers get more love from the media

THX 2 PAOLO FOR DOING SUCH A GREAT WONDERFUL PERFECT JOB LIKE U DID!!!
I HOPE HE WILL ENJOY LIFE AFTER RETIREMENT AND STAY AT MILAN MAYBE A FUNCTION AS A ASSISTANT COACH OR COACH FOR THE U21 SQUAD
IT WAS MORE THAN AMAZING TO WATCH ALMOST HIS WHOLE CAREER, HE WAS BEEN AT SOME WORLD CHAMPIOSHIPS
HIS CAREER WAS FANTASTIC, BUT A WC TROPHYS MISSING IN HIS LIST!
HIS LOYALITY TO THE CLUB SHOULD BE HONORED!!!
BUT HE SHOULD RETIRE IF HES FEELING THE GAME HAS CHANGED TOO MUCH...
IF I THINK AT HIS RETIREMENT AT LIL TEAR ROLLING DOWN MY CHEEK :cry:

WE LOVVVVVEEE UUU AAALLLLLL PAAOOOLLOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

As long as people blindly worship clubs like Real Madrid and Juventus, and as Milan continues to be under-rated and under-valued, we are unlikely to see our players get these awards.

Baresi should have won it, Paolo should win it.. but its unlikely to happen. There is too much bias in football hierachy toward Manchester Utd, Juventus and Real Madrid for Milan players to get a fair chance. Look at this years "front runners" - Nedved & Zidane. Nedved should be there but i don't know about Zidane. Maldini was almost perfect last season as player and captain, taking Milan to the CL and Coppa titles. But since he is not a galactico, then his odd's aren't as great :rolleyes:

Here in Australia especially you can sense the favouritism toward Juventus/Real Madrid/Man U. Even though IMO we have the most stylish and attractive team in football, and proved our quality by winning the CL, people who think they know football but really know nothing will continue to be sucked in by the merchandising and 'star' capacity of Man U and R.Madrid, and it seems that, those in "authority" in World Football, seem to have the same outlook..

So even though San Paolo deserves the award above anyone, the fact he is a) a defender and b) plays for Milan (and not a "brand name" like Real Madrid or Manchester Utd), may disadvantage him. The injustice in world football is saddening.. :head:

Seriously, what has Zeidan does this year? Nedved I understand, but Zeidan is not a good choice at all. The French want to give it to their own guy. I think another guy considered in this thing should be Rudd Van Nistelrooy. The guy scored more than 40 goals. So, here's the list:
1. Maldini
2. Van Nistelrooy
3. Nedved

Well the French had a superb Euro 2004 qualifying campaign..and Zidane..although very much low profile now at Real Madrid..is forever one of the most gifted footballers on the planet......
