FXKing2012: The voting process is extremely flawed, little wonder Messi won. It is now flawed right! It was the same method in place when Ronaldo won it in 2008, was it flawed then? You guys have to realise something, in any situation where there are votes, there will ALWAYS be sentiments (Voting for GEJ and not PDP remember?) Also, whenever there is a winner, there will stil be people who thinks someone else should win. In a democracy, if you win by 60% of the votes, do not forget that 40% of the population still did not think you deserve to win. That is how democracies and voting works. Get used to it and learn its tenets. 6 Likes |

Pharoh: We have always known that sentiments will follow this kind of voting so i would have preferred a committee that distributes these awards among the players to encourage everyone of them. To imagine that amy wambach has never won the female world player of the year until now and any of those german or Japanese ladies too could not win it for the past four years says a lot about the voting process. In your company, would you accept a committee to distribute bonuses and not give you your due as the best performer just so they can encourage lazy folks to feel among? The BEST award is not shared, it is earned! 3 Likes |

shagarri: In summary: Nope, in summary, MORE people (44% of the voting population) believe Messi was the best player in 2012. |

They've all voted for either citizenship or clubmate or friendship..except a few...well messi deserves it and I'm glad that Drogba n Yaya were fairly represented in the catalogue |

In any vote, There re always sentiments invoved, but it can neva overide d best performer. Even if the public were askd to vote, d results wil stil b d same. I checkd eurosport poll on d trio wen they were shortlisted, messi had 59% of total votes, dat was b4 setin d 91 goals record. No doubt Ronaldo is gud, Messi isnt human. Unles sometin terible hapens to him, he wil retain d balon d'or for 2yrs again. Competin against this guy is an efort in vain. At his age, he has done d untinkable. There is no longer any basis 4 comparism btw cr7 nd messi. A world best player and 4 times winer, evrytin cr7 has done, messi has done at least twice. 1 Like |

Cornel88: If not for the selected journalists, it would have gone either way. Those directly involved in the game who are eligible to vote are voting with sentiment. Nope, that is a fallcy! In the analysis of the votes, Messi won the Captain's votes, he won the Coaches votes and he also won the Media votes. And my guy it was not close. (And at all the global sites, he won the popular votes - votes by faceless people on the internet) Ronaldo even got a 0.1% vote by letting someone else vote on his behalf as Portugal Captain to ensure he gets the 5 Points as number one pick 1 Like |

Laalamed: I think voting system should be reviewed.sentiment,nepotism and favourism are not good. There are caucus among international foothballers.people know the voters. lobbying is not an impossibility.. And how do you intend changing that ? Would you prefer a panel of judges, who will sit and decide for the world who the world best player is?.. No matter how transparent the process is or will be, some people will still not accept it. 1 Like |

Troll: The Way This Voting Is Being Done Nowadays; An African Will Never Win The Fifa Ballon D'Or. No Matter How Spectacular He Is On The Pitch. The Europeans Will Always Vote For Their Own. The Public Should Be Given Voting Power Or Else This Is Just Plainly Sentimental Bulshit. Imagine!?It still boils down to the same thing...if the public is/are allowed to vote, the voting will still be filled with sentiment, favouritism and nepotism. |

cupid4ig: read it again messi didnt select ronaldo in his top 3 abi u no get eye ? That is what I'm saying. Messi didn't select CR7 in his top 3, the Portugal guy too didn't select Messi in his top 3. 2 ge 4. Italian coavh selected his boys (Pirlo and Buffon) as top 2. Spanish coach also voted his boys(Iniesta, Xavi and Cassilas), |

omenziate: Casillas sef dey very unserious. Ramos over Ronaldo.?Voting in a everything is based on personal likes/choice. Your best food may cause another person to puke. There was a year, I thought Thierry Henry is a sure banker to win it but he didn't but came second. But in the end, majority vote earner wins. Thats put to bed conspiracy theorist of Blatter and the award. But conspiracy theorist always tend to talk to themselves and believes whatever themselves tells them. 1 Like |
