1. So just because Inter Milan won the Champions League they get to win all the awards?!

    Reblogging this to add my own thoughts…

    Often in these cases, winning is the tie breaker.  Yeah, Valdes, Pique, Xavi and Messi had great seasons, and if these things were given out based on the love I have for my favorite players, then sure they would have won.  But Julio Cesar, Maicon, Sneijder and Milito had great seasons too, and theirs culminated in a great win against Bayern for the trophy, and so they get the (well-deserved) recognition.  Its tough, but that’s how it goes.

    That said… I hope Xavi gets the personal recognition he deserves and beats both Messi and Sneijder to the Ballon d’Or :)
