Did Gervinho miss out?
Not in the top 10 mate,on a side note,,,,
"Javi Garcia (Manchester City) voted "The Most Improved Player In Europe""
Probably his 2 passes to a blue shirt on sunday that swayed it.

When Ronaldo & Messi have retired the questions will be, who was the better player. For me at the moment I would say Messi without any doubt.
As for this years award I think Ronaldo just about deserved it.

If the majority don't say Messi something is wrong.

Ronaldo won NOTHING joke award.

Messi will win it back next year.
How about last year when Ronaldo led the team to a record points total and beat Barcelona? Ronaldo then was great in the Euros narrowly losing to Spain on penalties. Messi got knocked out in the group stages with Argentina. Yet Messi somehow won it.

There's never been much to separate the two, but Messi has nearly always played for a better team. The Barcelona team=Spain team which has won everything.

You seem to be forgetting the NINETY PLUS goals Messi scored that year.
 
Hilarious how Pele tried to overshadow the winner.. newsflash nobody cares about you anymore it's all about the modern players!<br /><br />-- Tue Jan 14, 2014 8:42 am --<br /><br />Hilarious how Pele tried to overshadow the winner.. newsflash nobody cares about you anymore it's all about the modern players!
 
Last year was the best personal year of CRonaldo's career. He still scored 17 fewer goals and had 23 fewer assists than Messi did in 2011. And i know it's a running joke on here, but, Messi does track back and find himself tackling players for the ball and starting attacks from deep in his own half. He doesn't dive even a tiny fraction as much as CRonaldo does (unlike the rest of his Barcelona team mates as there is an awful diving culture at Barca which i detest and am not looking forward to us playing against) and he doesn't start slapping the floor and looking like he's about to break into tears when a ref doesn't fall for his dives.

Messi is the greatest football player of his generation and arguably all other generations (as i think football is light years ahead of what it was decades ago).

CRonaldo is a fantastic, amazing even, football player. He may well sit at #2 in that list behind Messi but he is behind Messi and even if Messi never finds his form from 2008-2012 ever again in his career, CRonaldo will have to improve an awful lot further to be considered a better player than Messi ever was.
