Santos: Cristiano is a surefire winner

fifa.noJSVideoMessage There is not much that Fernando Santos and Cristiano Ronaldo do not know about each other. Santos was the player’s last coach in the Portuguese league prior to his move to Manchester United, while Ronaldo skippered Santos’ Portugal side to victory at UEFA EURO 2016 in France last summer. Just for good measure, the two are respectively in the running for the men’s coach and player accolades at next week’s The Best FIFA Football Awards™.
Though guarded about his nomination alongside Zinedine Zidane and Claudio Ranieri, the 62-year-old Santos has no doubt Ronaldo will get the nod ahead of Antoine Griezmann and Lionel Messi: “I am convinced that Cristiano was the best player of 2016 because of all the things he won: the UEFA Champions League, which he’s already won a few times, and the EURO, a title that has evaded a lot of great players. He’s got it now, and he also picked up a number of individual awards throughout the year. There’s no doubt in my mind that he has ..

Ibrahimovic: Ronaldo was better than Ronaldinho and Cristiano

© Getty Images Zlatan Ibrahimovic believes Ronaldo was better than Ronaldinho and Cristiano Ronaldo. O Fenômeno won his third FIFA World Player of the Year prize after inspiring Brazil to 2002 FIFA World Cup Korea/Japan™ glory. Ronaldinho went on to lift that award twice, while the 31-year-old Portuguese is vying with Antoine Griezmann and Lionel Messi to become The Best FIFA Men’s Player for 2016.
When asked by ESPN Brasil which of the trio was superior, Ibrahimovic responded unwaveringly: “I think Ronaldo ‘Fenômeno". For me he was an example of what football is. Everything he did was like ‘wow’. The way he dribbled, the way he ran, the way he scored goals, he was a genuine phenomenon.
“What he did, I don’t think anyone will do again. Because it was all natural to him, it wasn’t anything constructed. He wasn’t designed. Ronaldo was natural, he was born to be what he was. It wasn’t something he trained to become. This type of player isn’t build; he’s born. He is unique.”
“Ronald..

Granero: Cristiano is like AC/DC; Messi is like reggaeton

© Getty Images Esteban Granero has likened Cristiano Ronaldo to iconic rock "n" roll band AC/DC and Lionel Messi to reggaeton music, and opined that the 31-year-old Portuguese should win The Best FIFA Men’s Player 2016 award.
The Australian group is famous for mega-hits such as Highway to Hell and Back in Black, while reggaeton, which is influenced by Latin American, Caribbean and hip hop music, emerged in Puerto Rico in the late-1990s.
“Cristiano would be, for instance, AC/DC – something heavy metal,” the Real Sociedad midfielder, who played alongside Ronaldo at Real Madrid, told AS TV. “And Messi… let"s say that Messi is reggaeton. But the good kind!”
Ronaldo and Messi are competing for The Best FIFA Men’s Player prize along with Antoine Griezmann. Granero thinks it should go to his former team-mate.
“It’s logical there’s a lot of debate,” said the 29-year-old. “But I think Cristiano is the fairest choice.”
The Best FIFA Men’s Player will be crowned at The Best FIFA ..
