Sweden Football Gala Player nominees: No Marta?!

The Swedish Football Association has released the nominees for (most of) the Player of the Year categories:

Coach: Andrée Jeglertz, Umeå IK; Martin Pringle, Kopparbergs/Göteborg FC; Jörgen Petersson, Malmö FF
While not in anyway dismissing the challenges it brings to coach an all-star team, I still can't help thinking "who could possibly fail with the players Jeglertz has to his disposal?". My heart is more with Jörgen Petersson, who took on the task to live up to Malmö's reputation, while having to work with 4-5 rookies in every match.

Breakthrough: Lisa Dahlkvist, Umeå IK; Stina Segerström, KIF Örebro; Emma Wilhelmsson, Malmö FF
This should be Stina Segerström's price, coming from nowhere (ok, not really nowhere, just Örebro) and creating a starting position for herself on the national team, competing with the likes of Jane Törnqvist and Karolina Westberg. But Lisa Dahlqvist has also impressed a lot on me - getting regular time on Umeå's midfield means keeping the likes of Lise Klaveness and Elaine Moura on the bench.

Goalkeeper: Caroline Jönsson, Malmö FF; Hedvig Lindahl, Linköpings FC; Carola Söberg, Mallbackens IF
Should be Caroline Jönsson, at least in my opinion. Steady grip on the starting position in the national team, great job in her club both tending goal and breaking in a bunch of teenagers, that now by the end of the year almost resembles a decent defense

Defender: Hanna Marklund, Sunnanå SK; Stina Segerström, KIF Örebro; Frida Östberg, Linköpings FC
Harder to tell here, Hanna could very much deserve her second appointment here, but Frida has impressed in this position and contributed to the fact that Linköping actually has one of the best defenses in the league. Stina will get another price.

Midfielder: Malin Moström, Umeå IK; Anne Mäkinen, Umeå IK; Caroline Seger, Linköpings FC
Unlike the two others, Mäkinen is one of those less flamboyant players that are extremely vital for her team but not that much noticed. She's the hub in Umeå's midfield and I would like to see her getting the price. Seger has been growing a lot this year, but is seriously speaking not a player of Mäkinen's or Moström's quality yet.

Forward: Asthildur Helgadottir, Malmö FF; Lotta Schelin, Kopparbergs/Göteborg FC; Victoria Svensson, Djurgården/Älvsjö
All three great forwards, all of them of crucial importance for their teams. But while Helgadottir is your text-book target-player, Schelin has all the qualities a target-player needs and Victoria Svensson has been playing target most of the season, we don't see any fast forwards here. No Hanna Ljungberg or Josefine Öqvist. Or Marta. Why isn't Marta here? The only reasonable explanation I can see is that she has been slotted for the big price, the Player of the Year price, the big diamond ball.

This is by the way the first time ever non-swedish players can win a Player of the Year price. And there are of course some predictable complaining from Umeå over Marta's absence, but also someone like Johan Esk, influental columnist in Stockholm daily Dagens Nyheter, searched in vain for a reasonable explanation.
Svensk Fotboll: Fotbollsgalan
Västerbottenskuriren: Gunnar Johnsson: Marta bäst i världen - men inte i Sverige
Dagens Nyheter: Det är ett galet skämt

Because I love your blog, not because I want to sound patronizing,
here are some editing notes:

prize= award; price= cost, as in price of oranges
treble= music term; triple=group of 3

:)

Please, patronize away. I need it. English is not my first language and I never use a spell-checker.

Since Umeå blew it, I won't be using the word treble for some time, but Merriam-Webster says: "something treble in construction, uses, amount, number, or value" and the Wikipedia spells it out without hesitation: "Treble in sport describes the achievement of winning three trophies in one season (e.g. The Treble in football)".

Btw, the few friends I have left thinks I am really annoying when I go on like this. I don't mean to.

Just to add to the Where's Marta? issue:
Åke Stolt of Sydsvenska Dagbladet describes the non-inclusion of Marta as a mockery, claiming that Marta is all in all the best footballer in Sweden.

The unique prints embedded on the shirts and jackets of Ed Hardy apparel are all carefully conceptualized and designed by the no less than the man behind the clothing line, http://www.edhardyjeansale.com/13-ed-hardy-womens-bikinis Ed Hardy himself. This man is popular to many as the greatest tattoo artist of his time. While Ed Hardy was already a larger than life household name, http://www.longchamphandbagsale.com/ he never opted to rest on his laurels as an artist for life, hence the birth of the clothing line that still emanates the artistic prowess behind the name.

http://www.cheaplongchampbags.com/content/21-Buy-Cheap-Longchamp-Handbags-From-A-Longchamp-Outlet

While it is a given fact that every latest fashion craze that is out on the market is accessible to all those who can afford, it is also an established reality that a certain fashion craze may not always look good on every single person, http://www.celinehandbag.com/ both the fashionable and otherwise. Thus, fashion icons and stylists suggest that one must look for comfort and sense of well-being while wearing the apparel.

http://www.mulberrybagsales.com/8-mulberry-cross-body-bags

Simply put it, if it fits right and one is comfortable wearing it, then is will turn out fashionable without trying so hard. But then again Ed Hardy Clothing Line looks out for the general welfare of all its clientele. http://www.mulberrybagsales.com/6-mulberry-bayswater-bags It is for this reason that Ed Hardy banners total comfort and that sense of well-being wearing the outfit.
