I doubt it will be televised, it should be available on the FIFA website though.

On my American stream of the Chelsea game at the weekend, they were advertising it, so ya may have ways and means of finding it if ya really wanted.

Ronaldo is best priced 1/50 to win it.

Iang87 · 13-01-2014 2:41pm

anyone know if he's going to it.

Paddypower had an offer of 5/1 that he'd win it and not show up, he said a few months back he wouldnt show up but i reckon he's changed his mind

If he doesn't win this year he will never show up again, still have an awful feeling they will give it to ribery.

Talib Fiasco · 13-01-2014 3:36pm

Ronaldo announced the other day he's going to it and that's the end of it.

The three lads at the press conference...in the gold-silver-bronze positions perhaps???

Usually it's gold in the middle, see the Olympics :pac:

Dempsey · 13-01-2014 4:04pm

If Messi wins it this year, its a farce

And who's to say the guy in the middle of the photo won't win?

Not at all. It was very close between them in 2013, certainly the closest Ronaldo has got to him in years.

I dont think Ronaldo likes Messi very much

Is it players and coaches who get to vote? Who else?

I fully expect it to be a lot closer than people think, Messi could easily get more votes than Ronaldo because he is more likeable. And despite his injury he still had a phenomenal year.

That sentence sums up why this award and post others are flawed!

13-01-2014 5:17pm

Ronaldo has it hands down.

1/50 with betfair

1/100 with Ladbrokes!

The other two lads are 40/1 each

messinkiapina · 13-01-2014 5:19pm

Ronaldo certainly deserves it, but I think he's a massive tool and it would be hilarious to see his face if they gave it to Messi again!

MD1990 · 13-01-2014 5:25pm

Alaba really should have been in team of the year

How many players from "The World's Greatest League" are there?

6 by my count, can't really see it very well though.

Blatter · 13-01-2014 5:46pm

lol at Xavi and Iniesta getting into the team of the year ahead of Schweinsteiger.

Skylinehead · 13-01-2014 5:48pm

Team of the year is a joke. Xavi, Iniesta and Alves have no right to be there on last years form.

Mr Blobby · 13-01-2014 5:48pm

Having more Barcelona players than Bayern is a joke!

SlickRic · 13-01-2014 5:49pm

heh.

Pepe and Ronaldo's reaction to Messi's suit.

You know well what league I refer to, Michael.

Mars Bar · 13-01-2014 5:53pm

This is being streamed live on Youtube too

Lukker- · 13-01-2014 5:54pm

How did Xavi Iniesta and Alves get in it? I'd have Suarez over Ibra too. Barca certainly seem to get in on past glories.

Lithium93_ · 13-01-2014 5:54pm

Ballon d'Or live stream for anyone who wants to watch it

jimmytwotimes 2013 · 13-01-2014 5:55pm

Real World Bayern 7 Barca 0

Fifaland Bayern 3 Barca 4

These awards have long since been a joke and a la liga love-in

Blatter · 13-01-2014 5:57pm

This is some awful ceremony.

Lithium93_ · 13-01-2014 5:58pm

I wish they would cut the nonsense and just announce the Ballon d'Or winner already

SlickRic · 13-01-2014 6:06pm

you know your suit is out of control when I can't help looking at it with her on your arm.

Bd4IRJlCIAEZoEQ.jpg:large

Too Tough To Die · 13-01-2014 6:08pm

Not a bad suit actually but you have to be the best at something to pull it off. Thankfully, Messi is.

klose · 13-01-2014 6:09pm

Some cringey questions and is badly rehersed in places, gullet has been caught out a few times.

As for the team of the year

Xavi and Iniesta in there, Vidal and Schweinsteiger not. Anybody who takes this serious needs their head examined.
