ibrahimovic love Barca
FC Barcelona Player of the Season 2010 :Being listed as five of the top 15 FC Barcelona players, as voted on by fans, is an accomplishment to be proud of. When that list is narrowed down to the top 10, certainly these players are the best in all the sport. But, what happens when the top five players are within 150 votes of each other?
Falling in at a close second with 73,110 votes is Zlatan Ibrahimovic. Known affectionately to his fans as Ibra, this player may be new to FC Barcelona but not to footy. Before Messi signed a contract worth 9.5 million Euros a year, Ibra was the highest paid player in footy earning 9 million Euros a year.
The top player earned 73,264 votes. His name is Lionel Messi. By the age of 21, this footy star had already received over five FIFA World Player of the Year & Ballon d'Or nominations. Some footy enthusiasts have even compared the player to famed Diego Maradona, which is a large accomplishment in its own right. During the 2009 season, the FC Barcelona coach, Josep Guardiola claimed that Messi was probably the most gifted footy player he had ever laid eyes on.
The battle between Messi & Ibra to become the most popular player on FC Barcelona is not something these five are unfamiliar with. An elderly coach was quoted as saying (of Ibra), "I think there's five outstanding players in the world - Ibrahimovic, Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi & Kaka. At the moment, I think I have the best in the five - the best player in the world [Zlatan Ibrahimovic]."
