For this prestigious title there are 5 Arsenal nominees for candidates. Henry, Campbell, Pires, Vieira and ....Wiltord!!!??? (Yes, that IS right!!!)
Real Madrid field 8, Man.Ure. and Chelski 2 a piece, with the Scousers and Celtic 1 each.
(With Wiltord not even making the bench on Saturday how on earth can he even warrant a nomination?)
My view is maybe AW left him off the bench to put some pressure on him over the (still) non-signing of his contract. Unless of course AW nominated him in order to try and keep the fee high for him during any imminent departure?

AW might as well of put young Pascal on that list just to take the piss... wiltord was just a little more effective..but not much.. oh poor sylvain..

I would hope that Wenger put this list together a couple months ago, when Wiltords inclusion may, MAY, have been somewhat warranted.
