My wish: 1. Messi 2. Xavi 3. Iniesta 4. CR 5. Eto'o 6. Ibra 7. Kaka 8. Gerrard 9. Rooney 10. Drogba But apart from the top4, I couldn't really make a justified ranking by myself. Nevertheless, if the rumours are true and CR finished 2nd, that's not fair, with all due respect to CR. His current form is already better than last year's, but last season is the main reference for the Ballon d'Or 09. Certainly, CR won it last year due to the 07/08 season, not his injury-prone and rather quiet start to the 08/09 season. 6 hours to go…
