Out of thousands of best players all over the Globe, only one will lift the glory of being top player of the year.
Every player tries desperately hard to become the greatest ever by winning the trophy of best world player.
It is a real tough competition.
A top player needs to posses at least one outstanding technical attribute. Can score goals, can pass and cross, can head, has fast turn of pace, not afraid of tackling back and gets in his fare share of tackles.
No slump in his own high standard. His enthusiasm and desire never dwindle.
Sustained excellence at the highest level is not about fitness and talent alone.
It is about the desire to keep doing it, with willingness to keep training hard and maintaining his body.
A top player is the complete pro, an artist, the ultimate in efficiency.
Artistry and efficiency are rare bedfellows but a top player has them in abundance.
A top player should be the footballing equivalent of gold dust.
