    true, its definitely a question of what individual performance was better....is a world cup worth more? or champions league? individually their both the best in their position

    I imagine the voting usually goes to the scorer, the goalie is always undermined even though its the most important position lol they never get the credit their deserve

    What about coaches ? Ancelotti, Simeone and Loew ? Simeone deserve it but the "Decima" for Madrid is also such a huge things.

    Ronaldo probably for his performance in Champions League. Wouldn't be surprised if Messi took it either with what he did in the World Cup but all likely good it's going to Ronaldo.

    I would say Ronaldo, and Anchelotti for the coaches, Loew is a good shout but he had the players already and they struggled to get out of 2nd gear in most games, in which they didnt win before ET in WC.

    Always preferred Ronaldo's style but both deserve it obviously. Also happy to see Neuer up there

    Ronaldo was more impressive the last year. Neuer world champion. I think Ronaldo will win the trophy.

    Ronaldo deserves it this year despite a poor world cup. Messi form has improved but he wasn't for Barca at the end of last year. I think it will end up
    1 Ronaldo
    2 Neuer
    3 Messi
