senna deserved it more, but like the offside says, he is more of a symbol of the midfield rather than their outstanding player.

He played well last night though

Can I also add that just because Spain won the trophy, it does not necessarily mean they had the best individual player. If Germany won, everyone would be picking German players as the player of the Championships.

The players most selected in the Offside Team of the round:
Selected Twice:
Villa, Boruc, Zhirkov, Arshavin, Chiellini (one as sub),Van Persie (one as sub), Ballack (one as sub), Buffon (two as sub).

The players with one selection that appeared in the final are:
Podolski, Frings, Casillas, Sergio Ramos, Puyol, Lahm, Schweinsteiger, Fabragas, Silva, De La Red (as sub), Klose (as sub)

So surely only these players can be considered? In my personal opinion, I think Zhirkov was consistantly good.
