Objectively, Who are the Top 5 players in the world?

Come on! All these answers are bogus. This is it, obviously.

!) Ronaldinho (If you say otherwise your nuts.)
2) Henry (come on, its henry)
3) Shevchenko (been outstanding)
4) Totti (going strong)
5) Kaka (simply amazing)

You cannot include Zidane! He's retiring! People are basing their answers on the World Cup. You have to go by the whole year not just one month!
Goalies cannot be compared! They are in there on categories.

Beckham(england)
Ronaldinho(brazil)
Ronaldo(brazil)
Messe(argentina)
Zidane(france) or Robben (holland)
These are not in any particular order

Ronaldinho
Gerrard
Terry
Zidane
Henry

In order they are:
1) Zidane
2) Ronaldinho
3)Totti
4) Beckham
5) Figo

Based only in this Cup's performance: Cristiano Ronaldo, Frank Ribery, Thierry Henry, Freddy Ljunberg and Myroslav Klose.
Players who missed my Top 5: Lionel Messi (unfortunately, he didn't played enough!), Ricardo (Portugal's keeper), Joe Cole, Arjen Roben and Buffon.

WOW - good question: mine and in no particular order:

Ronaldinho, Henry (hate him), Ballack, Rooney, Gerrard - picked for what they bring to both club and country.

hey - I think the guy below me must be from Italy!

Ronaldinho, Henry, Rooney, Messi, totti.

Buffoon from italy

I like:
Cristiano Ronaldo
Lionel Messi
Zinedine Zidane
RONALDINHO
