Almost every year Cristiano Ronaldo-fan boys moan that their Portuguese hero should be the man who EA honours as the worlds greatest player this is certainly the year in which their complaints will be most justified if Ronaldo doesnt get the nod from EA. Based on this years performance for Real Madrid, Ronaldo is the best player in the world. The 92-rating he has been tarred with for the past two instalments in the FIFA franchise needs to be revised. Ronaldo has been the driving force behind Los Blancos dominant Champions League campaign, decimating Bayern Munich who had been touted as the best team in the world in the semi-final stages. Where the Argentine hasnt looked his usual dominant self at Barca, Ronaldo has looked better than ever earning him his Ballon dOr nod earlier this year. Despite his nearing the age of 30, Ronaldos athleticism has in no way declined the 29-year-old is still arguably the finest pure athlete to have ever kicked a football. He combines his insane athletic abilities with exceptional technical skills. Though their respective performances in this summers World Cup will inevitably have a huge factor on their FIFA 15 ratings, as it stands Cristiano Ronaldo must be honoured as the worlds best player.
