I'd be tempted to go Ronaldo and then David Silva.

Some of the nominations, I'm not sure why they've been selected apart from the fact they play for a specific club. Besides the uproar, van Persie missing out on a nomination is criminal and not just based on the weekends performance.

I am not sure we are thinking of the same players, but I am guessing those who selected them are the same people calling barca the best team to have ever played. Abidal for a ballon d'or? Even alves...

Hoping Ronaldo wins it this year. Goal machine, fantastic performances.
