geordiesteve710 Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 Neuer, CRonaldo and Messi finalists for the Balon d'Or. Cronaldo will probably win it, but I'd love for Neuer to win it, and think that he really is the most dominant in his position and had a better season than CRonaldo title wise with League, German Cup and World Cup title. (for me the WC is the biggest thing you can win) Still find it hard to stomach a goalkeeper winning ballon d'or but I see where you're coming from. However, got to be Ronaldo surely. Yet again he's just been ridiculous. Why is that, out of interest? No-one seemed to argue with cannavaro in 2006, and I'd say a keeper as dominant in his position as Neuer, and capable of making outrageously spectacular saves is just as worthy and also probably more value in entertainment terms (if that's your criteria) than a centre back defending well and demonstrating extreme leadership skills. Not kicking off or owt, just wondering Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not kicking off or owt, just wondering It's difficult. In 2006 we didn't have a player performing like CRonaldo tbf though. But I do think Neuer deserves it more in a way, especially because GK position is so underrated. But pretty sure CRonaldo has this in the bag I'm afraid.

Guest firetotheworks Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 Something's not right like, he must have some mob connections or something. He must be the Johnny Fontaine of journalism or something, there's no way that he's been legitimately chosen as sports journalist of the year ffs.

geordiesteve710 Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 Are we sure the '#pride tm' awards don't exclude people who are obviously straight, thus leaving Ryder as the only man standing? Not trying to be homophobic, just wondered if that had narrowed it down. Seems odd for Lee Ryder to win anything Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
