What are you talking about? There are many players faster, stronger, harder working, better aerially (all in one package, as well) players than Ronaldo.

What!?!?! Like who? :P Also add all his technical qualities and his confidence as well and you will find nobody as good as him bar Messi, even though Ronaldo is a much better individual imo.

Thierry Henry at his peak, for example.

Any number of big West African strikers/midfielders. Essien during his best days wasn't that much slower than Ronaldo, significantly stronger and possessed far better stamina as well.

Hmm, still have to agree with Spike. Essien was stronger and possessed more stamina but still I think if you look at the way Ronaldo uses his athleticism to his advantage its quite incredible. You seen that TV program where he gets tested? Like when hes shooting, the fact his legs are so powerful and muscly, it helps a lot with the power he can get behind his shot. Also his jump say for when he wants to win a header is incredible and that's also due to him having extremely powerful legs.

Ronaldo - 60 goals in 55 games last season, 10 of them in Europe.

Iniesta - 8 goals in 47 games, only 3 of them in Europe.

How is he better than Ronaldo?

It is NOT always about stats. Iniesta played a key role in Spain winning the Euro. He played a key role in Barcelona. If it wasnt for Messi's shit penalty kick Barcelona would have won the Champions League. No wonder Messi didnt get it. If it wasnt for Ronaldo's missed penalty kick, Real Madrid would have been in finals.

Messi and Ronaldo cost their respective clubs a place in the finals. No matter how many goals they score against shit teams in spanish league, they cost their team when it mattered the most.

Iniesta on the other hand is a magician. He seldom fails. When Chelsea play Barcelona, I always fear Iniesta more than Messi and I am glad he rightly deserved that award

He wasn't the only one who missed. Stop trying to pin it on Ronaldo. Ronaldo is better than Iniesta, no doubt.

No doubt, but the gap isnt too big. Iniesta can be viewed as a better player last season. Euros count as a big part (not saying it is fair, just pointing it out) and Ronaldo did not even took the pen. Most of La Liga matches does not count, imo. Barca x Real they were both good but CR7 was better.

Anyways, I would take them both...

The gap is not that big? Wow. He and Messi are on another level to everyone else.

Definetly, but if Ronaldo is a 10 Iniesta is a 9. Pit the Euros in the equation you get Iniesta with 18 votes and Ronaldo with 17.

And Messi better than Ronaldo...So? Missing Penalty did cost him and his club. Add to that the fact that he didnt even take that penalty for Portugal in Euros.

Because he was assigned to be the 5th penalty taker. Think before you post. Otherwise you'll sound like a Moron.
