2012 world best football player.

At the moment, the two players seems to be from another planet. Their performances and importance to their respective clubs outshone everyone else. If trophies won is taken into consideration, then Ronaldo will win it this year.

It is professional football that you are talking about, so obviously money has to be involved. The teams that you mentioned 'using finances to play football' are not the only ones. ALL the professional football clubs want to 'use finances to play football'. They want to but they don't have the money. I don't agree that football of today is no more for entertainment. I am not sure about others but I myself enjoyed watching the games of today the same as those that I watched 30 years ago. As for competition, it has always been about competition that football is played. I think it is too much to ask for a professional football team to just play friendly matches. The world's best football player in 2012 to me is Christiano Ronaldo. He almost single-handedly won the La Liga for Real Madrid with his extraordinary number of goals in 2012. Not even the likes of Barcelona could match his achievement as far as La Liga is concerned.

For me, I would say it was Xavi. First of all he is a part of the successful Barcelona team and is the one who calls all the shots. Of course, Barca did not win much this season only the Kings Cup. But then he made up for that by starring in Spain's Euro success. Another player who will run him really close would be his Barca and Spain co-star Iniesta. Cheers! Ram

I think that will achieve the best player of 2012 is one of the all time Spanish squad won the European Cup this year, but this is also the player who brought his club champions this year, which obviously if Lionel Messi to win the Players Teerbaik In 2012, it was very surprising, because in 2012 he only took Barcelona Copa Del Rey champions only. To be sure we see the next few months.
