LoyalRoyalFanWest Stand Man Wayne Rooney! Surely to be the FIFA player of the year you need to have played well at international level as well as at club level. It is arguable whether he deserves that rating for his club play, but as far as England is concerned he has not been at the Ballon d'Or standard at all.
Neither has Messi then.
12 goals in 9 internationals this year, including a hat-trick against Brazil.
Nice one.
