There are four Real Madrid players - Raul, Zidane, Roberto Carlos and Ronaldo - that could win the most prestigious prizes at player level,the FIFA world player and the "Golden ball", this year. Who is your favourite player to win the prizes?

If i had to choose the best player i would choose Zidane.

But if I i had to choose the most important player for the team i will choose Raul.

Or If i had to choose the potentially best player i would choose Ronaldo.

And if I had to choose the more constant i would choose Roberto Carlos.

IMO, RC is the one who deserves it for his career achievements and being the most determining player in a great number of times.

Fifa World Player of the Year will go to Ronaldo BECAUSE of the World Cup...as much as i hate him and his pr people, it WILL go to him.

Golden Ball (European Player of the Year) SHOULD go to either Raul or Zidane(for their exploits in champions League play)....i'm leaning to Raul because he really should have won over Owen last year.

Unfortunately...Roberto Carlos will get the shaft for both awards...but how many people can boast a world cup, 3 UCL, 3 Liga, and countless other titles in his career?

I don't know how Ronaldo can win world player of the YEAR based on one month's performance.

I'd love to see the awards go to either Raul or Roberto carlos... they just get ignored year after year and contradictarily, i thinki it's because they are so consistent. Raul doesn't have the screaming streaks like a Ronaldo or an Owen or an Inzaghi these days, but I doubt if any other forward has consistently achieved as much over the last 3 years.

And Roberto Carlos, just suffers from being surrounded by players who are equally spectacular but who obviously are in the highlight reel more often because they are forwards or midfielders... Zidane, Figo and Raul at club, and Rivaldio and Ronaldo for country.
