Consider the 4 years since the day *after* France won the WC up to today.

1. In your opinion, who has been in this timeframe the best player in
each of the following positions?
- Goalkeeper
- Defender
- Midfielder
- Forward

2. Among the players you have just named, who has been the best player
overall?

Rules are pretty simple:
- In each category, you can vote for more than a player (e.g. three best
goalkeepers, or two best players overall), and each of them will in any
case get one point. Similarly, you can vote for the same player in more
than one position, and he will get one point in each position.
- Deadline: December 27, 23:59 GMT.

Apart from the token Juventus vote, all picks of mine?! I would be
elated... if I wouldn't know what you think of defenders (= they have
the easiest job in the universe). :)

Do you want to name the best player overall as well?

I'll update the results after your vote.
