Welcome to the second preliminary final in our search for the Golden Vettel winner of 2013. This end of year award goes to the person who stitched up their teammates, or generally acted like a goose during the season.

Back in March Red Bull F1 superstar Sebastian Vettel ignored team orders and shafted his Australian teammate Mark Webber at the Malaysian Grand Prix. This, in our eyes, was a moment of treachery we could not let pass and so the Vettels were born, living weekly on the Fox Sports Facebook page.

First up we tackled cricket and today it's the football world in the spotlight.

Check out the nominees and leave your vote. The football winner will join luminaries from other sports in the Golden Vettel grand final next week.

1. Luis Suarez. Is he brilliant? Undeniably. So good is the Uruguayan playing right now it seems churlish to talk of the downside. But has there ever been a sportsman which such disparity between his most magical moments and his depths of depravity? Exhibit one: his 10 match ban for the April chomp on Chelsea's Branislav Ivanovic (not the first time he has sunk his teeth into an opponent). Then, while serving the ban with the full support of his manager Brendan Rodgers, he agitated for a move away from the Reds, in the process shafting Arsenal by misleading them over his transfer release clause.

Saurez has kept his head down and his scoring boots firmly on since his return - but how long before his next indiscretion - the January transfer window?

2. Sir Alex Ferguson. Football pundits are divided over this, but has Fergie given his anointed David Moyes one of the great all-time hospital passes? Fergie left Moyes a squad that - RVP and Wayne Rooney aside - is ageing or substandard. Fergie can't be blamed for Moyes's chronic failures in his first transfer window in charge but did nothing to help his cause by coming out with an unsettling autobiography when Moyes's reign was in its infancy. That book adds to Fergie's Vettel credentials - he bagged out men who made him such as David Beckham and Roy Keane, and had a substantial swipe at Mark Bosnich.

3. Ashley Young. So blatant was his dive against Crystal Palace earlier this season he was publicly ticked off by his Manchester United coach David Moyes. Who knows how it went down behind doors though, as Young was at it again last month, winning a penalty against Real Sociedad with a comical tumble after a slight tug on the sleeve. Moyes refused to condemn him that time, although plenty including Roy Keane did.

Young is unrepentant - so expect more. He says: "I think it's one to ask the referees. They're the ones who are giving free-kicks and penalties.

"It's been talked about obviously by the previous manager and the current manager but that's in house."

4. Sepp Blatter. Are words necessary? Well, maybe one word: Qatar. Oh, and Qatar.

5. Leroy Fer. The Norwich player hit the headlines when he rolled the ball into an empty Cardiff City net after it had been kicked out because of an injury. Fer ignored the conventions of fair play that hold that a team will give the ball back to their opposition. Referee Mike Jones disallowed the "goal" - wrongly in the eyes of many, including Fer.

"I just looked at the referee and he did "play on" with his hands so I think the goal had to count," said Fer. "I'm a little bit confused on that one. I meant to put it in because I wanted to win the game."
