VIDEO: All 10 goals up for the FIFA goal of the year award (Torres' is best by a mile!)

Fernando Torres is in the running for the FIFA goal of the year award. Take a look at what he's up against

Adebayor (Arsenal) vs. Villareal



Elian Atar (Bnei Yehuda Tel Aviv F.C.) vs. Maccabi Netanya



Essien (Chelsea) vs. Barcelona



Grafite (Wolfsburg) v Bayern Munich



Iniesta (Barcelona) vs. Chelsea



Luis Angel Landin (Cruz Azul) vs. Morelia



Katlego Mphela (South Africa) vs. Spain



Nilmar (Internacional) vs. Corinthians



Ronaldo (Man United) vs. Porto



Torres (Liverpool) vs. Blackburn



If I was biased...and I AM (!), I would go for Torres' goal every time. The perfect technique to control the ball; the acute angle; the inch perfect placement...Oh how we miss you, Fernando!

What do you think?

    Some good goals in there. Nice one from El Nino, but he'll certainly be run close. Just so long as Ronaldo doesn't get it, I'll be happy.

    all of them are very very nice.  the question is should we, or really should the committee who decides, factor in the magnitude of the game?  if so, i really hate to say this, but it has to go to ronaldo's goal.  no one else, except maybe a healthy stevie g, could do that in the world right now.  the keeper had absolutely no chance even though he saw it the whole way.  also, that game was a huge one for man u and they were not looking like scoring right then were it not for ronaldo.

    Taking away my Torres bias, I'd have to reluctantly agree with you :'(

    For overall goal quality I would say it's a toss up between Torres or Ronaldo.  But for sheer delight it would have to be Grafite, what a cheeky little bugger!

    I'm voting for Torres though.

    Torres' goal was amazing but not the best here. I voted for Ronaldo.
