Since when did the Ballon D'Or get decided on November form?

 

Why are people saying this is Ronaldo's year when he's probably had his poorest season in 5 years up until October/November time..

 

He's had a fabulous November, but people are so short sighted if they feel he's done enough to be given the award..

 

'He's a goal machine' or 'He does it in the big games'

 

Erm, didn't Real Madrid finish well behind Barca last season? Didn't they got knocked out by Dortmund with Real's biggest attacking threat coming from Sergio Ramos? Didn't they lose the Copa Del rey final to Ateltico Madrid? Didn't they lose both classicos against Atletico and Barca this season with Ronaldo failing to have any impact on either 'big' game..

 

This year the award should go to one of the Bayern boys.. Ribbery has been fantastic as has the likes of Lahm and Schweinsteiger.. They've won all the trophies, they've been the best in Europe over the year..

 

Whilst Messi has been amazing he's missed a good chunk of the year through various injuries and IMO it wouldn't be fair to give it to him when he's not been ever present... As for Ronaldo, he's been in fine goalscoring form for 5 weeks.. That shouldn't be enough to topple someone like Ribbery who has helped Bayern win everything.

If I'm correct it is given in January? Best player of the year according some journalists, national team captains and coaches voting?

Ribery maybe should win it thinking what happened earlier this year but that's not how voting systems goes, I'm afraid. We human tend to have short memory and Ronaldo's 24 goals this season alone is hard to beat.

Gibraltar draw 0-0 v Slovakia in their first full international game, fair play

 

Just read that Danny Higginbotham played for Gibralta , here's his quote..

 

"It was backs against the wall for most of the game but we expected that. In the end we were unfortunate because we had a few good chances at the end."

 

Good luck to 'em .. :)
