[Green & Blue]

Mario is one of them ??

That is a surprise.Why always him?

It really is something else to have our players on the shortlist.

Surprised Vinny and Joe didn't make the list. Both more deserving than Mario IMO.

[Chinners]

When it comes to ballon awards how Felix Baumgartner has been omitted is a mystery

[Swales4ever]

don't forget Scapuzzi and Mancini's son.
they truely ruin football

[Alex Sapphire]

as long as Tranaldo comes third the rest doesn't matter

Yeah true both would have been deserved nominations.Knowing Mario he will be expecting to win it.

[City64]

Mario will win the best hairdoo and Tee shirt award .......

[Green & Blue]

I forgot to mention that Mancini is also up for the coach of the year.

[Peter Doherty (AGAIG)]

No Adam Johnson? Shocked....

[freshie]

How has shrek made the list and silva hasn't. He only won the premiership and euros last season - what did the fat granny shagger win?

God only knows i suppose Fifa had to have at least one United player in the mix, it's probably an unwritten rule.

Alan Hansen will be squirming at the news that Mario has made the shortlist.

Would think Mario got in for his Euro performances. If he played like that for us, we would be happy for him to be chosen

[Rag_hater]

What does Yaya do?

this.
he was picked purely on his euro performance.

[Blue Blood]

In his head he's already won the ballon d'or, he won't be worried.

I am happy for him

Spoiler alert.

Messi wins.

That list is bollocks anyway. Mario, Rooney, ibrahimabitch, Buffon, neymar and ANY barca defender shouldn't be on it. (on account of barca playing against division 2 rate strikers 9 games out of 10)

They pick it by playing 2 season's on FIFA and seeing which team they end up with.

I say this jokingly but it could quite possibly be the truth.

It's gonna be down to messi or Ronaldo in the end, but I'm sure everyone already knows that

That's what would worry me particularly if Pep took over here. They get away with murder.

They should just have an award for Messsi & one for others imo. Even if you put Messi on a bad day & Ronaldo at his absolute best, Messi still runs him close. Ronaldo on a bad day isn't fit to lace Messi's boots.

They may give it Ron to shut him up though.
