Come on Zlat, give the other lads a chance.
The Paris Saint Germain forward picked up the Guldbollen (Golden Ball), decided by newspaper Aftonbladet and the Swedish FA, and to celebrate his ninth time claiming the prize, we've compiled nine of our favourite quotes from the soundbyte-producing conveyor belt that is Ibra.
1. A Dutch reporter once asked Ibrahimovic: "Can you describe 'Zlatan' - a lot of Dutch people don't understand?"
"I've never heard this question before, I think it's only you who doesn't understand."
2. After his move to PSG, Zlatan doesn't stress about house-hunting.
"We're looking for an apartment. If we don't find anything, then I'll probably just buy the hotel."
3. A female reporter makes the mistake of asking if Zlatan was gay.
"Come to my house and you'll see if I'm gay. Bring your sister."
4. When asked what Ibra was going to get his wife for her birthday.
"Nothing. She already has Zlatan."
5. After being offered a trial at Arsenal.
"Zlatan doesn't do auditions."
6. When Sweden got knocked out of the 2014 World Cup qualifiers, Zlatan lost interest in the tournament.
"A World Cup without me isn't worth watching."
7. A reporter asked Ibra why he had scratches on his face.
"You'll have to ask your wife that one."
8. On an apparent rivalry with John Carew.
"What Carew does with a football, I can do with an orange."
9. Ibra knows just how much he means to any side.
"An injured Zlatan is a pretty serious thing for any team."
Oh Zlatan! We'll see you next year for your tenth award.
