So, readers of bulawayo24.com, what do YOU think? Does Messi deserve it? Should Ronaldo or Iniesta have won? What about the coaching award? Jose Mourinho complained at the time that he does far more work than Vicente del Bosque - has he been unfairly overlooked?

No player from England, and no-one who plays in the English Premier League was selected in the 'Dream Team' as selected by FIFPro, the players' union. Ten out of the 11 play for Real Madrid, and it's a clean sweep for La Liga. Whats your take on this one?

Lionel Messi, Radamel Falcao and Cristiano Ronaldo!
Xabi Alonso, Andres Iniesta and Xavi!
Dani Alves, Sergio Ramos, Gerard Pique and Marcelo!
Iker Casillas!!

    Let me thank God almighty for taking us into 2013 and welcome you all Byo24 news readers and mr editor. I had a wonderful time in my hometown Bulawayo with wonderful people. To answer your question, Lionel Messi deserves the guy is just phenomenal, who has scored over 90 goals in a season yet to finish in football history? He deserves it.

    i beg to differ with whoever says la liga is superior to the EPL coz la liga is a 2 team league whilst the EPL has more than 4 heavy weights

    Laliga is far more superior, competitively, than English Premier league

    Fifa and England are on a collussion cause ever since England accussed members of Fifa of receiving bribes in the selection of the world cup hosts. Ever since these scandals broke out l have never taken anything administered by fifa direct seriously. Everything has to be taken with a pinch of salt. venues.
