Stephen Smith: Never in doubt, guy is a class act, even at his age he's still head n shoulders above the rest.
Oh please don't Phil, someone WILL tweet/text asking why Messi wasn't included and I'll have to draw the map out again.
Don't make me do it, please.

I demand a recount on Ibrahimovic vs Shearer. Theres no way that should even have been close let alone Ibra winning. Ibrahimovic is a top quality striker but Big Al is a legend of the game!
Liam in South Yorkshire
Just checked for you Liam. Sorry, he still lost...
The votes are in... it's VERY close!
Winner announced at 17:45.

Kloppotime: If it's based on Premier League, then Henry obviously. All time is Cristiano.
