Ronaldo on FIFA Shortlist

[ARBUCKS]

CRISTIANO Ronaldo has made the three-man shortlist for FIFA's world player of the year award.

The Manchester United winger is up against AC Milan's Brazilian Kaka, who is the favourite, and Barcelona's Lionel Messi.

The award will be made at FIFA's world player gala in Zurich on December 17.

Each national team manager and player is given a vote for their player of the year.


My Prediction, Which i have said in here a few times is:

1: Kaka

2: Ronaldo

3: Messi

Hope Ronaldo gets it!!! **Fingers Crossed**

[Keano4taoiseach]

Just to be in the top 3 players in the world is incredible......

Great to have a Manchester United player in there......

Ronaldo is not just promoting the premier league and English football, but football all around the world......

I salute you....Kaka.....Ronaldo....Messi......:)

[red_dec7]

id put him higher than both of them he should win

[carlyluvsunited]

Betting:

Kaka 1/10
Ronaldo 3/1
Messi 5/1

So that is the 1,2,3 I suppose.....

Seems to be what everyone thinks..........:o

[RichardsReds]

I'd love ronni to get it, wont happen tho. Never goes to england...

[SolskjaertheLegend]

id like Ronaldo to win, but imo Kaka and Messi are both better players at the moment. That will change though hopefully.

[carlyluvsunited]

[Damian]

imo i think Ronaldo will win it on last seasons performance and how he as started this season Kaka and AC Milan not doing to good in the league this season and Messi is world class but not as good as Ronaldo.

1. Ronaldo
2. Kaka
3. Messi

i think messi would be a popular choice but ronnie will clinch it by a slim margin

[Wazza1989]

i hope Ronaldo wins it..though everybody says Kaka will get it:(

[sianluvsunited]

kaka wins this because hi team wins champions league trophy. now we need united to win this and the prem lge and next year ronaldo win ! its depending on united now for ronaldo to be the best.

Kaka only scored 8 goals in 31 games in Serie A last season!

Ronaldo scored 17 goals in 34 games and also bagged 14 assists!

Europe hates England though so kaka will win it.

Europe hates England though so kaka will win it.yes i think if your team is winning big trophies this makes decision different for the judges. europe does not hate the england but they dont like to have the england fan come to our country. they make too many troubles for everyone and this is not polite good manners. but i am in bucuresti when arsenal comes to play steaua in september and these boys are very good guys. they make no troubles and have fun so yes these boys are welcome again of course.

I think Italian fans are the worst really. It's the Liverpool fans that give the English a bad name :p

[rydersonthestorm]

England fans are no where near the worst i think they just have a bad name fom the 80's i could name 10 countires with much worse fans.

Kaka's performances in the Champions League will win him the award.

The Ballon d'Or (formally known as European Footballer of the Year) was announced over the weekend.

Kaka won with Ronaldo 2nd and Messi 3rd.

I think it'll be the same for the FIFA World Player of the Year.

[rooneyNo10]

Didn't kaka win this award like today or yesterday?

[UniteD AdoreR]

it's an simple thing people!
Beckham Won the trible at 99 & won NOTHING!
Gerrard won the CL at 2005 & won NOTHING!
Henry was on fire for 2 Seasons and won NOTHING!
Beckham Again with Outstanding perfomances at 2001 & Won NOTHING!
