Manchester United winger Cristiano Ronaldo is on a three-man shortlist for Fifa's world player of the year award.
The 22-year-old Portugal winger is up against AC Milan's Brazilian star Kaka, who is the favourite, and Argentine Lionel Messi, who plays for Barcelona.
It is the first time any of the trio have been shortlisted for the award, which was won by Italy defender Fabio Cannavaro in 2006.
The award will be made at Fifa's world player gala in Zurich on 17 December.
French midfielder Zinedine Zidane and Brazilian striker Ronaldo are both three-time winners of the award, while Ronaldinho has won it twice.
In the women's award, Brazilian duo Cristiane and current holder Marta have both been shortlisted along with Germany's three-time winner Birgit Prinz.

Dunno, Ronaldo has been superb so far in the CL this season. Kaka has not. Could be Ronaldo, Messi, Kaka, or Messi, Ronaldo, Kaka.
Silly award, anyway...

That'd be me. I wouldn't go so far as to say it won't be him for sure, but there's a decent chance any of them could win it.

It's a good job no one here is epileptic. Saying that, if they were, they wouldn't be able to say so, would they? They'd be on the floor right now. I won't keep it up for long.

It almost certainly wont be Ronaldo. EPL players NEVER win this award. Winning the Premier league has little bearing on the outcome - Kaka will win it seeing as he is Brazilian, plays in Italy and won the Champions League.

it just adds weight to the medias obsession with individuals rather than the team, which is one of the biggest things missing and the main reason england failed in their euro 2008 qualification

spot on. although ronaldo is latin so he has half a chance and his name sounds brazilian so you never know! Kaka hasnt been up to much this season though so give it to messi for his host of wonder goals!

Kaka has it wrapped up. Only once has a player not from Milan, Juventus, Barca or Real won the award and that was Lothar Mattheaus when he was at Inter.
Wouldn't be surprised if Ronaldo comes third
Foreign bastards!

Just kidding 
Actually a f@ck in an ambulance is quite a turn-on, though I'd imagine if I was in an ambulance I wouldn't be in the mood.

Also, due to gender equality, its a 50:50 chance your nurse will be a man.

It wouldn't be a nurse it'd be a paramedic.
There'd be a driver and a paramedic which means a 75% chance one would be female...

Well as long as the driver isn't female I wouldn't be worried.

No, women are always accompanied by a man, so it's either man/man or man/woman. Sex with a man in the back of an ambulance isn't quite as appealing.

What will happen:-
Kaka
Messi
Ronaldo
Given Platini's offensive on the EPL I wouldn't be surprised if he's in third place.
