Here it comes the debatable one!
Footballers are often ridiculed for having more money than sense, and it is little wonder when they are responsible for monstrosities like the 2012 FIFPro World XI.
The best team of the last calendar year, as voted for by approximately 45, 000 professional footballers around the globe, produced an all-La Liga line-up consisting of just one player - Atletico Madrid's Radamel Falcao - who is not contracted to either Barcelona or Real Madrid.
If the Fifa Ballon d'Or is traditionally regarded as the most prestigious individual prize in football, then the FIFPro XI considers itself the most distinguished team construct.
However, any credibility that the Fifa-backed award has acquired since its creation in 2005 has now all but disappeared.
