It has to be between Sneijder, Messi, Xavi, and Iniesta with maybe Forlan as a longshot. For me, Messi is the best but Xavi probably deserves it most for 2010. However, I think the actual vote goes to the Dutchman.
Coach is between Jose and VDB. 50/50 toss up.
French football award??.. i think will go to Mr.Platini.. hehe.
