David Beckham has been knocked off the top of the list of football's highest earners, with Barcelona's star player Lionel Messi now the best-paid player in the game. The annual survey, conducted by France Football magazine, estimates Messi's earnings at £29.6 million, £2.3m ahead of Beckham. The Englishman - who is currently out with a long-term injury - remains in second place on the list, just £100,000 ahead of Real Madrid winger Cristiano Ronaldo. Messi's salary is made up of a £9m basic wage, £3.6m in bonuses and a further £17.1m in personal endorsements. The Argentine has deals with companies including Adidas, Pepsi and Gillette. The top English-based played is Manchester City striker Carlos Tevez, who comes in seventh with £13.8m, while Chelsea's Frank Lampard is ninth on £12.7m Internazionale boss Jose Mourinho is the best paid manager in the game with £11.7m, just ahead of Manchester City boss Roberto Mancini on £10.8m. Top-earning players in football: 1. Lionel Messi (Barcelona) £29.6m 2. David Beckham (LA Galaxy) £27.3m 3. Cristiano Ronaldo (Real Madrid) £26.9m 4. Kaka (Real Madrid) £16.9m 5. Thierry Henry (Barcelona) £16.2m 6. Ronaldinho (AC Milan) £15.4m 7. Carlos Tevez (Manchester City) £13.8m 8. Zlatan Ibrahimovic (Barcelona) £13m 9. Frank Lampard (Chelsea) £12.7m 10. Samuel Eto’o (Inter Milan) £12.4m Messi is certainly worth the money but I'm not sure about the rest of that list! Beckham obviously makes his money from endorsements so that's fair enough. I don't think Zlatan and Henry should earn more than Xavi and Iniesta. Tevez is obviously not worth anything like that much money, same with Ronaldinho. | ||

It'd be nice to see Malouda playing with A.Cole on that left side but Zhirkov has been playing pretty good and Van Aanolt, the young kid that got subbed in the Pompey match, played pretty good even though it was against Pompey. On the Malouda elbow, it was a lot worse than it looked and Rocha didn't break anything as was thought at first. It was really unfortunate though. | ||

Poor Pompey, I really feel bad for them being the worst team in the league by leaps and bounds plus having deductions in points on top of that. They are actually a decent team too. | ||

Also during the match Drogba starts dancing with Hreidarsson I thought it was pretty hilarious when I was watching the match. Right after this happened when Drogba got the ball Hreidarsson pushed Drogba for a foul lol. | ||

Keep saying stuff like that and you will become my favourite poster on TL. :D Roma dominated for most of the first half, but leading with 1-0 doesn't feel very safe at all. I'm hoping Totti will come on in the second half and score a hattrick or something. :D | ||
