I think this year iniesta will won 2012 FIFA BALLON D'OR. He played big role for spain national team to win the competition and help Barcelona win copa del ray
Fifa, l think u should award Christiano Ronaldo for the 2012 (ballone de o) because he scored morethan 60 valuable goals for Real madrid that earn him the league tittle and a semi final champions league spot, whilst Messi scored more than 70 goals that only earn him the kings cup and a chapions league semi final spot. Iniesta won the Euro but he didn't perform well for Barcelona last season and this current season he is out of it. Ronaldo also play a key part in Real's super cup win over Barcelona and in the recent 2-2 draw over as well. Ronaldo has also scored in his last 3 or 4 games at Camp nou and Real are over coming barcelona in the El classico in the recent days winning 2-1 to claim the league which Ronaldo scored the winner one defeat and one draw and winning 2-1 in the super cup second leg which Ronaldo score the winner too. Ronaldo also help real to several records in the last liga. 100 league points and he scored against all teams in the league. Give it to him pls.
