Real
Madrid star James Rodriguez believes Lionel Messi and Manuel Neuer will not
even come close to Cristiano Ronaldo in the Fifa Ballon d’Or vote, Goal
reports. The Portugal international dethroned Messi as the world’s best in 2013
and his team-mate has little doubt the prolific attacker will once
more bring
home the prestigious individual award this year after firing Madrid to
Champions League glory. “It is an award all players dream of, but the Ballon
d’Or is Cristiano’s right now,” the Colombia international was quoted by Goal
as telling Marca. “He’ll win it again this year because he deserves it, simple
as that. He should win with 99 per cent of votes. As our coach said, there is a
huge gulf between Cristiano and all the rest right now. “His quality speaks for
itself. He works very hard to be what he is: the best in the world.” The former
Monaco man then went on to praise Carlo Ancelotti and underlined the Italian’s
role in Madrid’s success. “Ancelotti is a great coach and we talk often. He has
taught me a lot these past few months. I’m working hard to keep learning from
him. “We are all really happy to be working with Carlo. He asks much more of
everyone defensively speaking. That’s the key to Real’s current good form. “The
only way of achieving what we do is with humility. There’s no other way. Yes,
it’s a very humble group.”--TodayNG
