Level with Lionel Messi now, five times each. Always fancied seeing Gareth Bale picking this up, but my hopes are fading. Not sure how valid it is anyway with not one Wolves player being nominated. N'Golo Kante highest placed Premier League player at eighth, Harry Kane highest placed British player at tenth.

Great comback by Ronaldo.
You don't get the Ballon d'Or for winning the league.

Definitely deserved it. It was 4-1 Messi at one point, and he's pulled it back to 5-5. I prefer Messi but you cannot knock cristiano. One of the greatest of all time.
it would be easy to pick Messi but he didn't win the trophies and didn't score against juventus twice so that apparently puts him out of the question honestly watching real Madrid I thought Marcelo was their best player but he's a defender so has no chance in this day and age Harry Kane finishing 10th is also a joke
Obviously the only stat that matters to you is scoring goals.
If you've actually watched any Real Madrid games this season then you will see that Ronaldo looks more of the pace than Alex Revell!
Against Nicosia Real Madrid went 4-0 up at half time without Ronaldo scoring then proceeded to pass the ball to him at every opportunity just to enhance his bruised ego as is the case with him these days.
It's pathetic and goes against the grain of everything I have learned about football.
He is missing chance after chance for Real in La Liga but for some reason the players keep feeding him when other players are in better positions amd this has been to the detriment of his team.
If someone else scores he is never happy. He is like a pathetic school kid.
And a hat trick in the semi against Atletico, 5 (hat trick and a double) in the quarter finals against Bayern.
Ive seen some ridiculous arguments against Ronaldo because people dont like him but this one takes the piss.
He led Madrid to La Liga and Champions League honours, scoring an obscene amount of goals in the toughest, biggest games of the season. A more deserving winner of a Ballon D'or you could not wish to find.
If your auntie had bollocks she would be your uncle. You win some you lose some, decisions go for and against you,
He didnt "just score in the knock out stages" though did he? He scored over 40 goals last season, won the league, the champions league, and scored 10, yes TEN goals, in the Quarter final to Final of the most prestigous tournament in club football. Thats an unbelievable feat even by Ronaldo and Messi standards.
Messi may have scored over 10 or 11 goals more but none of them were anywhere near as important as the ones Ronaldo scored and thats a FACT.
