How can you honestly believe that Van Nistelrooy is better than Thierry Henry

Here's a stat for you:

Again though, to be nominated it is a matter of opinion.

Not a statistical thing

Considering it's voted for by people who are actually, you know, involved in the game at a professional level, I'd say it was a pretty good indicator of who the better player is.

I'm sure he got all his votes cause of his great Renault ads

Great Point

And RvN is still overrated, everyone does the work for him, I said it before, I'll say it again, he relies on everyone else, he can't do anything for himself.

Henry is made to look better as he has to create a lot of his own chances aswell as assist a few goals.

But RvN has players around him who will mainly create for him,so he therefore rarely needs to.He can hardly be called overrated for scoring a load of goals,and if its based on him not working for the majority then you may aswell say (almost) every 'world class' forward in the world is overrated.

Fact is,they both do well for their clubs and do what is asked of them.

that's out of 3 players.

how do you know Ruud isn't 4th in contention. I'm not saying he is. but you can't say he is bad just because he ain't nominated for player of the year.

There is no 4th, there is just the 3 best in the world. Even if he was 4th that would still put Henry ahead of him regardless of the result.
