FIFA Golden Ball Survey 2010: Results

Here are the results of the survey we conducted in relation to the FIFA Golden Ball 2010. During the less than three days which was open the voting period have involved a total of 858 people, so once again, from Football Notes thank you for your contribution and celebrate the success of the proposal. And I'll comment the results, some of them seem very curious, we hope that you too mostréis us your opinion.

QUESTION No. 1

If publishers and users of NDF we were in charge of deciding who will lead the FIFA Golden Ball 2010, Xavi Hernandez would be the winner, capturing two-thirds vote. In the current year has won the Spanish League with his club and the World Cup with Spain, but surely we've all taken into account the six major titles in 2009 and Euro 2008, but above all, I think what value is that, without any shred of doubt, Xavi consider the main representative of the style that led us to experience one of the best nights of our lives on the 11th of July.

Secondly it appears that Lionel Messi, despite not being able to avoid the collapse of the Argentina National Team in the World Cup, he is well aware of the spectacular year leading, with a goals per game statistics that we had not ever seen. It seems that the memory of some of its exhibits is still very fresh. The last place on the podium is occupied by Andres Iniesta, who, after a sluggish start to the year-by-injury in winning a place in our hearts the most celebrated goal in the history of our football - Iniesta of my life! -. Finally, Wesley Sneijder, who though not a finalist, I think it interesting to know what support they receive from you.

QUESTION No. 2

Here's an interesting fact. It seems that among our readers has depth information, or news feed, which published the Italian sports daily La Gazzetta dello Sport ', announcing that the votes of 154 journalists' France Football' and 208 coaches and captains of teams FIFA gave it up by winning Andres Iniesta. So, being behind Xavi and Messi among your preferences, together cornered 86% of the votes-nearly half of you think that Fuentealbilla be the one to take the upper hand.

QUESTION No. 3

A guy who earns just a few months in League, Cup and Champions League with your team and reach the World Cup final with his selection, with a role in both cases, is not among the three finalists to be named best player year is at least debatable.

My opinion is that Wesley Sneijder deserved to be among the top three in 2010 and although he did not expect most of you felt the same, yes I am surprised that the defense of the Dutch player's candidacy was supported by only 32% of voters. I guess, although many had to Sneijder in mind, it was difficult to get off the podium to one of three cracks Blaugrana.

QUESTION No. 4

In recent times I have been coming to the conclusion that the Golden Ball, which, remember, until this year was granted by the grace of France Football, without the intervention of FIFA, was a prize that was pretty insulted by fans soccer in our country, weigh heavily the fact that he has not won a Spanish since 1960, with some particularly controversial cases, such as Raul. So do not expect that 72% of you consider that most of the time the Golden Ball was jutca / tog ./><> h> USINN5igi = iae84 "sc" tp/igntseublcm21/2ecet55jgsrc = "http://img.notasdefutbol.com/2010/12/encuesta555.jpg" class = "centro_sinmarco" alt = "encuesta555.jpg" />

In the last issue that I wondered about what would have greater consideration, if the merits of the year or throughout the race as a whole, how mediríais the weight of a nomination if you were you responsible for giving the Golden Ball The most voted option (45%) has been that valoraríais on all year, even taking into account the rest of the race of each player. The next alternative received the most support (26%) came from those who consider only the role performed in the year to which it limits the award, followed closely by those who would take into account the year and the race to the same extent ( 19%). The two other choices just add up to 10% between them.
