The players from Germany's Bundesliga clubs have voted Diego as the best outfield player of the first half of the season. A record number of professional players, 270 in all from the top flight, took part in a survey held by football magazine 'Kicker'. The Brazilian, who has been at Werder Bremen since the beginning of the season, took a stunning 49,6% of the poll leaving his team mates Miroslav Klose (32,7%) and Torsten Frings (4,1%) trailing behind. Top goalkeeper was taken by Hanover 96's Robert Enke, who took 37,1% of the votes whilst Bremen's Tim Wiese came in a close second with 24,9% and Dortmund's Roman Weidenfeller took third spot (12,2%).

 

Werder Bremen get the nod

 

The clear majority of the particpants also believe that Werder Bremen will take the title at the end of the season. 58,8% of those polled see the current league leaders on top at the end of the season too with Bayern Munich in second place with 31,0%. The result of the poll is a clear indication of the respect which Werder Bremen have earned with their positive, attacking and attractive football. No doubt those on the pitch in Bremen, as well as those behind the scenes, will be working extra hard to maintain the phenomenal standards from the first series of games.
