Agreed! AND he won :)! Lu Lu Lu Lukas PODOLSKI!
He plays a clean game, so there's nothing anybody can say about his diving/faking/cheating skills. He scored 3 goals and is one of the secondary contenders for the Golden Shoe Award (along with Best Young Player), plus he was a huge asset to his team in getting to the semifinals. He's always smiling and grinning and has great sportsmanship and a sunny aura. He embodies the spirit of a true "best young player" with his upbeat, positive nature, and displays a balance of youth in his energy and maturity in his ability to work as a successful counterpart to his teammate Miro Klose in scoring. Even in the face of Germany's loss in the semifinals, he was there to comfort his teammates. His relentless pursuance of success is to be admired, and he shows that he truly deserves recognition for his efforts this World Cup.
For all the other people - first of all, the winner of the award is NOT decided by fans, or else the best wouldn't win. We know all the girls and Portuguese fans vote for C. Ronaldo and all the England fans vote for Luis Valente (so they can topple C. Ronaldo). This would definitely be an idiotic way to decide who is really the best of the best. Second of all, I love C. Ronaldo as much as the next person (unless he happens to be a Rooney-loving Englishman), but he was definitely not deserving of being the BEST Young Player this tournament. He has too much controversy surrounding him with that Rooney incident and the intentional/unintentional dives. He definitely did not play up to the same level as Lukas Podolski, and it's a shame that so many people overlooked the true best candidate for this award.

Matter of opinion, but I think Podolski has had an ok, but not great, tournament. Its unfair to judge Rooney because he missed the first game, and only played half of the second, so he has not played much, and additionally had to on his own upfront because of Owen's injury. Christiano Ronaldo has been very unimpressive...his runs never lead to anything, he flatters to deceive and he is a born whinger.

I believe so!
Lakas Podolski has proved himself as a talented young player

Lola is absolutely right. Lionel Messi (Argentina) is another Zidane in the making. He will dominate the world football in the next decade for sure.

thats not a question...is an opinion with a question mark at the end.
and i have to disagree. though he didnt get a chance to play much, messi is way better than podolski.

yes, but also Miro Klose. He shot the most goals and played excellent together with podolski.

He definetely was pretty good and so was Ribery. And I am Italian and I do not like the French but it is a fact.
