Yeah right, both of them out shined Robben this campaign in the CL while trophy wise they both will end up on top.
Messi is arguable but Robben outshined Ronaldo in the CL by far in my opinion. Had the decisive goal in just about every aggregate. How is that not clutch. I would vote Robben in the top 3 but not better than Messi unless he shines big in the world cup which he will but he needs the trophy.

I really hope it happens, at least a big bunch of those who rate Messi would stop doing that once he wears the white jersey.
on the other hand there will be lots who don't rate him simply because he plays for Barca,who realise how great he is

It will hugely depend on the WC and his form in November.

Journalists vote in the France football ballon d'or award, while the national coaches and captains vote for the world player of the year.
Usually people remember what happened recently and what happened at big competitions like the WC or the CL, SO if Argentina doesn't have a good WC and if Messi drops in form come November the way he did in September/early October 2009, then he won't win anything at all.
Ballon D'or is something thats driven by WC results once in every four years - journos prefer to do that way in WC seasons. Blatters FIFA award, Messi should win easily, irrespective f whatever he does in the WC.

Cannot see any outstanding player from Inter being in line for Ballon D'or even if they win the CL.

As for Messi, cannot figure out the reason he gets stoned on his international form. So far he was the player of the tournament in the two he has featured after the WC 2006 - Copa America and Olympics.

Also his form was good if not brilliant at the international level before Maradona took over.

nope, ladislau boloni said the same thing about him (the romanian coach who discovered him at sporting). He said he needed his shirt when he was playing for manchester on many occasions becasue boloni often does acts of charity and so on and ronaldo was always helpful. Of course he said the same thing this man said..you can't speak directly to ronaldo..you must speak with his agent bla bla..but the fact remains, ronaldo has a good heart.
