The biggest problem with Madrid fans is that "una no dey watch La Liga", you guys just watch champions league and even at that, na only Ronaldo una dey watch. I always tell people that without Ronaldo, Madrid would win the Champions League over and over again because this Madrid team is over complete (from goal keeper to defence to attack and bench), and join with the crazy luck that Zidane has. Their midfield is the strongest in the world (forget the extra efforts of Barca midfielders, the moment Xavi left the midfield has not been the same), The defence led by Marcelo and Captain Ramos is the best in the world, their attack without Ronaldo is only bested by Barca and PSG. Ronaldo was only lucky to have played with some of the best players playing at their peaks. His contribution to Madrid's game play is as good as zero, he only runs into the box to score goals and sometimes assist from the wings. He does not work as much as the others work, he only scores. So now because he scores goals, he should be the best. Even Navas has more impact on the pitch because if not for that Navas, Madrid would not win a second CL. The best player in Madrid is MARCELO, quote me anywhere (there is a reason Ronaldo is pushing for Marcelo to join him at Juventus). Without Marcelo, Madrid does not get to the semi's and Marcelo should be winning the best player for his work rate and input and not even Ronaldo or Ramos. Yes Marcelo makes mistakes but he scored very important goals for Madrid and was/is their driving force in attack. Shut Marcelo and Madrid suffers. I am sure most people shouting here don't watch 50% of Madrid's games in the league because if they do, they would understand Madrid would have won and would win without Ronaldo. That team is too complete and have players playing at their peak, Bale has already covered the void left by Ronaldo already. Ronaldo should appreciate the best forward award he was given, even the best goal should have gone to Bale, they were only trying to compensate him and he should be appreciative. Every single player in Madrid deserve the award, but in my opinion its between Salah and Marcelo (Salah because Liverpool would have won that final if not for the injury and he had a fantastic season). Since my people here believe Ronaldo is god... Lets see him win the CL with Juventus. 2 Likes |

Luka modric who was consistent in the champions league and also a gold medalist like christiano Ronaldo and who is currently a first runners up(a silver medalist) in the world cup. who deserves to wear the crown? Unless you are telling me that the highest goal scorers are always considered to be the world best. 3 Likes |

gaby: Thank u my brother. When ronaldo won d last balon d'or i was like is it only strikers that win this thing, what of d other players that do assist. I was like fifa shld consider d assists and defenders too. Someone like Marcelo really deserved one of those awards dt ronaldo collected bc dt guy has been helpful in that team, his defence mechanism is superb. Giving d award to only srikers is nt fair @ all. That is why other players are jealous and of course it's normal. So to me i wanted Modric to win it and i'm glad he won. 1 Like |

egojeny1: Very true...giving the highest accolades to only strikers will simply diminish the true fun of the beautiful game due to bad Belles. Players will simply resort to personal glory hunting and begin to starve strikers of the necessary passes giving disunity a fertile ground upon which to thrive in teams. The last time a none striker had been given the honour in the recent past was in 2006 to the Italian world cup winning national team captain. 1 Like |

donbenie: If he wasn't exceptional, France wouldn't have won the world cup. He played against Modric in two finals and he edged him out wining the world cup and UEFA super cup. Lastly, he also won the Europa league. |

I think UEFA needs to scrap this award. The ballon dor was in the past regarded as the european player of the year. UEFA should retain the ballon dor and scrap this UEFA men's player of the year. Then they should redefine the award and name it as "UEFA champions league player of the season" Many are confused because the "UEFA men's player" is awarded along with the champions league best goalkeeper, defender, midfielder and attacker, And also awarded at the champions league draws. So a lot of people mistaken it for an award for the champions league ONLY! WRONG! The op and so many commentators here wallow in absolute ignorance. They are not enlightened about this award "UEFA men's player of the year" The criteria for this award are all competitions both club and international; la liga, EPL, UEFA champions league, europa league and the FIFA world cup. Ronaldo had a great champions league but still flopped in the semi finals and final. He also had a poor world cup campaign. Modric had a good champions league and he lit up the world cup. Modric for this award all day all night. 2 Likes |

egojeny1: So true my brother... Marcelo is the silent engine house, him and Casimero. Truth be told, that Madrid team is too complete (infact over complete dey worry them). Just look at their bench players that transferred to other teams (they become regulars there). Before people here begin to downgrade Marcelo; There was this interview with Danilo (when he newly signed for Manchester City), the interviewer was asking him who he thinks the most hard working player in Madrid was during his time with Madrid. Danilo answered Ramos or Marcelo, the interviewer was shocked because he expected to hear Ronaldo and he asked again who the most skillful player in Madrid was, Danilo again said it was Marcelo and by far. Seeing the surprise on the interviewer's face, Danilo then told him that all players in Madrid work extra had but that Ronaldo only wants to score goals and be in position to score goals. The players themselves know who deserves the awards but just keep quiet since its not their decision to make. As much as I love Ronaldo, 5 Ballon d' or's is an insult to football greats. Ronaldo never play ball wey Zidane, Ronaldo de Lima, Ronaldinho play at all. Those awards na wash. 3 Likes 1 Share |

it's wrong to have snubbed Ronaldo on this.. I guess the criteria for the award was clearly on the champions league and not world cup.. if the award was judged on the world cup then Raphael Varane should have won the award because he won the champions League and the world cup.. A greater concern for Ronaldo should be the World best player Award because with what played out at the champions league Awards Modric might just clinch the converted price. |

ollah2:He was GOOD in the World Cup,even GREAT but he was not EXCEPTIONAL..Modric on the other hand was truly EXCEPTIONAL maybe with Eden Hazard.. Yes he won the World Cup but even in THAT team Mbappe would be a more recognizable character..and it can be argued that winning the Champions League is of more prestige than the Europa League,Griezman deserves to be in the running for the Award but for who merits the ACCOLADE,Modric has no Contest.. |

Offisteven:I don't understand people's problem. Ronaldo won the "best forward" award yesterday, obviously in recognition of his goal scoring prowess last season in Europe. Was he the best forward? Yes!!! Was he the best footballer? No!!! I so much love the fact that Modric got the recognition he deserved yesterday. I don't know how many of us can sit down and watch Ronaldo play for 90mins, when he is not scoring goals. I'll rather be punished picking a bag of beans! Ronaldo scored the highest number of goals last season and he got the reward "best forward". Boycotting the awards yesterday says a lot about Ronaldo, he has no respect for anyone else except himself. Coaches, captains and selected media persons voted for their choices in different categories, but because the almighty Ronaldo didn't win, they can all go to hell. Ronaldo and his fans should organize their own award to make him the best player if they feel cheated, UEFA has spoken and that's the final. I hope Mbappe, Griezman, and Modric emerged the final three for Ballon Dor, so we can have a winner from amongst them. 2 Likes |
