How does a best player award that is open to all players not represent the best player in the world?
Since 2007, all players are eligible to win, not just European-born or European-team players. So this award now represents they player who the voters feel is the best in the world.
Also, I don't know why it would be bad for journalists to vote for an award. The Cy Young Award is awarded from votes by writers. We don't treat the Cy Young as a lesser award because it's not voted on by players or managers. >
