Liverpool F.C. — Best pictures!

Manchester United’s Edwin van der Sar has lost his top spot in the FTBL rating of world best goalkeepers to Liverpool’s Jose Reina after losing 17 rating points in the lost final against Barcelona.

Manchester United’s defenders incurred massive rating losses as a result of their defeat at the hands of Barcelona in the Champions League final, with some of them even exiting the FTBL Top 23 for defensive players.

Barcelona midfielder Xavi could very well vault to the top of the FTBL rating of Spanish players after tonight’s Champions League final against Manchester United if he is able to produce the type of performances he has been known for throughout this season.

Manchester United’s main attack weapon Wayne Rooney will attempt to forget his recent relative lack of form and, as Thierry Henry in the opposite side, reclaim the top spot in the FTBL rating of English players in tonight’s Champions League final.

Wolfsburg’s Bosnian striker Edin Dzeko (pictured) is the top-rated European player at the moment with 258.19 points, a consolation prize after he was toppled by Atletico Madrid’s Uruguayan forward Diego Forlan as the highest rated player in the world.
