Ahmeduana:
if messi is good the way people are praising him, he should move from la liga to other major leagues and see if he can perform the way cristy has performed and still performing.
...and winning nothing.

stuhporh: I will not take the fact that messi has been invincible for some time now, but choosing the world best for 2012 should go to Either Iniesta or RONALDO.
Calm down bruv, just ask why, reasons are, This award is determined by the players contribution to his team and personal achievments. Ronaldo won the league where Messi did not. Played for his country and almost
...that doesn't kill a bird.

Messi's era lacks top talent compared to Zidane's era, if we had those kind of talents now, especially if they played in a simple "tiki-taka" football style like messi currently does, messi won't have nothin on them.
Mind you, da lima had to contend with the likes thierry Henry, shevchenko, ronaldinho, zidane, lampard, ballack, gerrard etc
Is dat to say cr7, iniesta, xavi, pirlo, falcao, rvp etc, are not top talent? These superb players u
mentioned above, how many can combine their exceptional skills wit high goal scoring capabilities? U can see finished talents wit high scoring rate in today's game! U kno what, i think, Cr7 in shev7 and de lima's time would have beaten them to as many wfoty has de are nominated for, baring world cup performances for obvious reason(brazil)! The youngman is jus unlucky to be in the era of d greatest footballer of all time! My simple tot! And pls don't mention frank8 in dat league!

All these are plot by the authorities to frustrate Ronaldo, he was simply the best.

The 2011–12 La Liga season (known as the Liga BBVA for sponsorship reasons) was the 81st season of the top level Spanish association football competition. The campaign began on 27 August 2011, and ended on 13 May 2012. Real Madrid won the league for a record 32nd time in La Liga history after beating Athletic Bilbao on 2 May 2012. The club broke a number of records including: 100 points in a single season, 121 goals scored, a goal difference of +89, 16 away wins, and 32 overall wins.

Ronaldo was decisive when it mattered towards the end of the season, saved Madrid from dropping points against Villrreal, Sporting, Ossasuna and Atleti in April. Not to mention being the match winner at the Nou Camp in the most decisive game of the year. That vital victory meant it was over for Barca.

This awards are highly based on sentiments, and on the player the authority feels is humble. The Spanish authority and Eufa are highly in favour of Barca over Madrid just because of perceived arrogance of Mourinho and Ronaldo. There were lots of controversial decisions in favour of Barca but Madrid were determined. Ronaldo also became the first player to score against every Laliga team in a season. Yet he is a new player in the terrain compared to Messi and Iniester.

Kudos to Ronaldo for scoring a hatrick after the award, he banged in a hatrick. He is refused to be frustrated. However, he might be out of Laliga at the end of the season to either Man United, MAN city or PSG or Bayern. But it appears he will most likely return to United considering his recent comments about Manchester United and Ferguson. Only City and PSG have said they can break the bank.

I agree with you o jare.
In fact both Mou and Ronaldo should resign from the game in protest and join Hollywood, where theatrics and conspiracy theories can fetch even bigger bucks than footie wink grin cheesy tongue

I can just see the movie title 'Goal 4: The FIFA conspiracy' grin tongue

You must be outta your mind to say that cr7 will beat da lima to the wfoty award when da lima was in his prime. There were numerous falcao's, xavi's, iniestas, rvp's etc, in ronaldos era. Since ronaldo da lima lost form and hung his boots, there's never been any center forward like him.
Don't ever try to compare cr7 and ronaldo da lima.

Yes both are terrors to any defence, but one scores more than d other! Need i mention dat one is a winger? Need i also remind u dat one doesn't have a champions league medal, despite playing for four club giants (best clubs) in europe? I don't like cr7, and sincerely i wish i can change d facts!

I don't make judgements on just number of goals scored let's judge all round performances for club and country. Their decisiveness in big matches! Mata.Lampard or Fabregas would more often than not manage more assists than Pirlo or Xavi so can we assume they are better midfielders
Victor Valdes has three champions league medals is he better than Buffon? Its not by joining big clubs you have to consider their strength as at when he joined them! let's not even count the times he spent Italy cos he was injured half the time
