Over the past week, Goal.com has given its readers the chance to vote on who they believe should make up the Asian Best XI for 2011. Here's the final results
By Goal.com
Last week Goal.com published its Asian Best XI for 2011, which provoked a big response from our readers.
The discussion centred on the make-up of the side, so we thought why not give the readers the opportunity to vote on their own best XI from around Asia for the calendar year.
Indeed, over the past week polls on each position have been run, and many thousands of votes have been placed. And now the results are in, so here's the Goal.com readers' Asian Best XI for 2011.
