    Messi, Ronaldo and then I really can't choose between Xavi & Iniesta.

    I think Xavi just pips him when it comes to passing but Iniesta has dribbling over him.

    Voted Iniesta.

    1. Messi
    2. Xavi
    3. Iniesta / Ronaldo

    Hard to pick between Iniesta and Ronaldo for me.
    Ronaldo is a tremendous athlete and goal scorer but I love the work ethic of Iniesta and the way he plays so he edges it for me.

    Xavi has to go down as one of the greatest midfielders ever to grace the game, his exceptional passing ability and reading of the game is a joy to watch.

    Xavi.

    I'm looking forward to the "4th best player" poll, so I can finally vote for Cronaldo. :50:

    Iniesta. Xavi should not be in this poll as number 2.

    Bale should be nowhere near this poll. Rooney probably shouldn't be either

    Being a fan of game running central midfielders I'd personally say Xavi is the very best in the world. Not fair that flair players always get the "best player in the world" tag.

    Bale :56:

    Villa? Really? Never rated him that highly especially after a 14/15 goal drought. Ghats just not good enough for a 35m striker at Barcelona. Di Natale, Neymar & Ibra should be in there ahead of him.
