The superstars of Manchester United and 23 years, Cristiano Ronaldo has chosen the FIFA World Prize and the prestigious Ballon d'Or awards, the best player in the world and the best European player of the year, or symbolize been appointed.
There are 29 candidates for the awards, but many coaches and analysts, only three of them are honors possible ones that can prevail to win the prestigious and Lionel Messi, Fernando TorresCristiano Ronaldo.
The three players have won international titles this year, Torres accomplished the EURO 2008 with Spain, Messi won the Beijing Olympics with Argentina and Ronaldo achieved the England title and the UEFA Champions League title with the Manchester United. However, we have to mention that not always the player that wins the awards is someone that has accomplished national and international glory.
Last year, the winner of both prizes was the Brazilian player Kaka, even when it is not common that the same player receives the two awards. Although, Kaka had an awesome year in that occasion and he accomplished great achievements in his game and that is the case of Cristiano Ronaldo this time. Ronaldo scored 42 goals last season and he played at the top of his game; besides his team, the Manchester United, achieved the UEFA Champions League, the greatest title in Europe, and the England Championship. All of this with the undeniable contribution of Ronaldo, and given the situation, why couldn't he be the winner of both prizes as well?
For his manager, Sir Alex Ferguson, Ronaldo deserve the two prizes and more. "Ronaldo is just an amazing player and someone who will always score for the team. Cristiano will win both player of the year awards, I am sure of it, If he doesn't, I want to sign the guy who does," expressed Ferguson.
Even though the confidence Ferguson has about Ronaldo receiving the recognitions, on the other hand he has explained that he is really happy with Ronaldo's recovering and playing time since he has already scored 4 times for the team, however, he is thinking of leaving him out his line-up against Celtic on the next game, due to the fact that he still not recovered completely of his ankle surgery and his physical form can be shown after playing two close games. For example, with his national team Portugal, he played an amazing football against Sweden which was a Saturday but then three days later, Portugal faced Albania and Ronaldo seemed to be a little tired and flat.
Therefore, Ferguson concern is that even though Ronaldo had a great game this past Saturday, he doesn't know if Ronaldo could play again at the top of his game on Tuesday. In any case, Ferguson will try to find the solution an hour before the game on Tuesday; he will wait and study how Ronaldo reacts on practice.
With no more to say, we all know the incredible kind of player that Cristiano Ronaldo is. We hope for him to receive these amazing awards and accomplish more in the future. He stills has a great future ahead of him and a lot to learn and we hope the best for this young and talented football player.
