Barca Players Dominate UEFA Club Award Nominees
As expected FC Barcelona players have dominated the nominee list for UEFA Club awards, which will be declared on the 27th of August. At the same time thegroup stage draw of this season's YEFA Champions League also will take place. FC Barcelona has six out of twelve nominees listed. It is good to see Valdes getting the nomination; but the real fight will be in the midfield where both Iniesta and Xavi have been both nominated. I have been hammering my head for sometime to decide who will come top, but no idea. May be the goals at Chelsea may tilt it towards Iniesta this time. Manchester United has three nominees whereas Chelsea got two of its players on the list. Here are the list of nominees.UEFA Club Goalkeeper of the Year
Petr Čech (Chelsea FC)
Víctor Valdés (FC Barcelona)
Edwin van der Sar (Manchester United FC)
UEFA Club Defender of the Year
Gerard Piqué (FC Barcelona)
John Terry (Chelsea FC)
Nemanja Vidić (Manchester United FC)
UEFA Club Midfielder of the Year
Steven Gerrard (Liverpool FC)
Xavi Hernández (FC Barcelona)
Andrés Iniesta (FC Barcelona)
UEFA Club Forward of the Year
Samuel Eto'o (FC Barcelona)
Lionel Messi (FC Barcelona)
Cristiano Ronaldo (Manchester United FC)
My prediction:
UEFA Club Goalkeeper of the Year : Valdes
UEFA Club Defender of the Year : Nemanja Vidić
UEFA Club Midfielder of the Year : Iniesta
UEFA Club Forward of the Year : Messi
UEFA Club Player of the Year : Messi
