I cannot understand why so many commentators keep on insinuating that Ronaldo was hard done to by not winning the World Player of the year award. People wrote it after the Everton game at the weekend - he scored a great goal which was basically his only contribution to the game until the last minute penalty. Yes he looked great against Sunderland - as he always does against teams in the bottom 2 or 3 of the league - but when he starts playing like that against the 'big 4' or in the later rounds of the Champions League I'll be more impressed. Also - i do not know how bad Kaka is for this but I think it is a sad day for football when a player who is known as much for the ease with which he goes to ground as his footballing ability is even being considered for this award. If the FA had studied footage and given Ronaldo an after the fact booking for every time he dived he would have collected about 100 yellow cards so far this season.
