Ronaldo wins the Ballon d'or.
Cried like a girl, just like when he won the Champions League.
He was desperate enough for the 2nd Ball...perhaps now he will stop crying? :D

Is a player like Steven Gerrard or Yaya Toure etc less worthy, their only negative points are that they don't play for Madrid or Barca.
The other problem with this is only strikers or attacking mid-fielders get a look in, what about holding mid field player defenders and god forbid, goal keepers being honored?
Until there is an objectivity in this useless trinket it will be an annual joke that will have absolutely no relavence to real football.
....OK rant is over :D
I tend to agree with you here are the only players who have ever won this who fit that description are Lothar Matthäus and Fabio Cannavaro.Quote:

You can't give Martin Skrtel awards, it's simply not fair on every other player in the world.
Is there something we need to know about you and Mr Skrtel?Quote:

Peter Crouch is so tall because Skrtel once playfully chucked him in the jaw. Peter Crouch used to be 5'4" tall.
Red Cards are red because a referee once tried to give Skrtel a yellow card. It turned red with the blood of that referee.
Americans watched Skrtel playing football once. He kicked the ball so hard that it turned into prolate spheroid?. This is why the American Football is shaped the way it is. The Americans also naturally confused Skrtel's awesome defense with regular football. This is why American Football is so violent.
Martin Skrtel has been to Mars. Thats why there's no life on Mars.
Martin Skrtel could strangle you with a cordless phone.
Shame that Skrtel is only an average defender then. :p
