    Ronaldo deserved to win it.

    Messi voted for Iniesta, Xavi and Neymar.

    What's everyone's favourite footballing names from this list? Has to be a toss-up between Thailand captain Sintaweechai Hathairattanakool and St Vincent and Grenadines coach Cornelius Huggins for me.

    All teammates of his. I guess Ronaldo has that excuse for Bale and Özil. Maybe he knows something about Falcao's future?

    Who votes? Is it just international managers, club managers and captains?

    Read the list I linked to above and you'll see: International managers, captains and 'media' (though how they choose them is anyone's guess).
