so that Russkie leak few hours earlier was actually right? nice

[Gr]

One kilo of make up and nervous choker mentality while Messi and Neuer were calm and collected.

The dust has settled, Manuel Neuer can go back to being completely irrelevant once again.

It is crazy how CR destroyed two guys that were in the World Cup final.

It puts in perspective how great of a year he had. Not even the World Cup have any impact on CR.

Anyone got a GIF of Neuer's face when CR was called? His face look the same when CR put one in the back of the net.

Wow that is actually impressive how they get people from the national teams of all the countries to vote like that.

Looking at how Messi voted he is biased as ****, lol. Are all of the players he voted for his teammates?

I think they should make the journos decide.

Look at all these countries voting. You can only win the award if you're a massive global brand.

That is the actual disgrace. Messi voted ahead of Neuer?:biggums:

So a defensive minded coach voted for the 3 best defensive players of the year? Woah

Talking about blunders this is who Pandev voted for in 2012
Captain FYR Macedonia Goran Pandev Eto'o Samuel Sneijder Wesley Abidal

I love the "yes" roar by CR. Him, Marcelo, Pepe and Coentrao do that roar all the time in practice. Only Madrid fans would know what I am talking about.

Good to see CR do it on internationally broadcast television. A lot of Madridistas appreciated it.

We already knew CR would win it and I don't know why people are so mad and shocked. He is on pace to win it next year and the haters can kill themselves then. :lol

[BurningHammer]

Neuer and Mueller together can't even beat Ronaldo alone in votes. :(

[ArbitraryWater]

Ronaldo made the whole thing worth watching...

That's the sound of an Alpha male marking his territory.

FFS. This thread is plastered with Ronaldo dick-riders.

Dude is good though.

Okay, for a change..

What does Ronaldo do when he wins the World Cup?
































Turns off the Playstation.

Proof that CR is the GOAT (https://vine.co/v/OD5XQO3JMhV)

[9erempiree]

It is safe to say that Cristiano is better than Brazilian Ronaldo. With this win and his crazy form...he will surpass a lot of greats and become the greatest ever.

His only competition as the greatest is Messi and it's great they are both playing right now for comparison.

With this 3rd Ballon...he is on GOAT tier. Sadly, he can't win a World Cup but I doubt anyone in history is that good and win with Portugal.

[alenleomessi]

The difference is, Messi is being compared to Pele and Maradona since like 5 years ago.. CR is being compared to Messi

Messi fans keep saying this but.... :confusedshrug:

[9erempiree]

Let that sink in for a moment here....

3 Ballons :eek:

[9erempiree]

The problem I have is David Luiz, Iniesta and Thiago. Just when you thought they did it right, they fvck up on the 11.

[Bosnian Sajo]

Cristiano's game is completely different than Messi's doe..

[Bosnian Sajo]

They robbed Diego Godin. David Luiz did very well in the world cup but that 7-1 defeat tarnished anything that he did accomplish.

[9erempiree]

Cristiano's game is completely different than Messi's doe..

The great thing about CR's game is that it is very modern but he is like a future player. Kind of like Michael Jordan with basketball. He is the future of how the game can be played and nobody is like him.

An innovator. Just like how Neuer is changing the keeping position, CR is changing how the Forward position can be played.

He is a goal scoring machine and an assist machine. Great aerial game, strong left and right foot. Good vision. Brilliant football IQ.

[9erempiree]

Modric deserved the spot over Iniesta.

[blablabla]

Modric, Boateng, Godin should have been in that squad

why do german people rate boateng over hummels? hummels was better in both CL knockout stage and in the WC
boateng has low iq as seen in the EPL few seasons ago.. shows it from time to time despite having world-beaters around him

Because Hummels is about to leave Bundesliga.

Germans are mad when their players go to bigger leagues and clubs(like Kroos)

[9erempiree]

Even with the lousy first XI, I am happy the soccer world is restored. The Ballon went to the deserving player and no controversy.

Lets think about this for one second, he got 3 of those things. GOAT tier. :eek:

On pace to win it again this year.

Dortmund ****ing sucks and Hummels is a big reason why they suck.
