This award means nothing.ButI'm surprised when people rate CR7 as the best player of the world.
He's not even the best MUtd. player.Tevez,Berbatov and Rooney are better then CR7.

************

I watch united every week and he is better than those 3

This trophy means nothing, if you think it does answer me this. WHY IS THERE NO DEFENDERS OR HARDLY ANY MIDFIELDERS IN IT?

I think that it is ludicrous that a player that has been shown so often to be a blatant cheat, should get or be considered for a prestigious award.

Every time he loses the ball he cries foul. He's like a spoilt petulant child.

Ronaldo didn't deserve the award at all. Is it supposed to be for the best player of 2008? His last 6 months have been horrendous. It's like the sponsors decide who wins these awards

ronaldo isnt fit to lace messi's or torres' boots when it comes to talent. ronaldo is skillful, but his attitude is awful. messi is known to be quite and personable, whilst i dont think ive ever seen torres argue with a referee. ronaldo isnt even that good at beating a man. at pace, messi can beat anyone and score, and torres can finish pretty much anything. its a joke to think that ronaldo gets that trophy when you look down the list of players who've missed out on it - henry, gerrard, bergkamp, cantona, rijkaard, and countless other players who've never been so much as nominated for it!!

I see where Mandryang (U11489956) is coming from. Players like Ronaldo, Toni, Huntelaar are goalpoachers

---------------------
Ronaldo a goal poacher? Have you actually seen a game of football before?

Yes. Most of his goals last year came from lurking around the 6 yard box.

Overrated but thanks to him the last 2 Leagues and the Champions League are in Manchester.
He made people forget about Mourinho's Chelsea.
And led a Manchester that 3 seasons ago was just in the group stage of the CL to win it without losing a game in the knockout stages.
Overrated winger who scored 40-plus goals in one season. Yeah, right.
