Ronaldo must win Ballon d'Or: Jose

Real Madrid coach Jose Mourinho has said it would be a travesty if Cristiano Ronaldo did not win the 2012 FIFA Ballon d'Or, as competition heats up between the Portuguese striker and Barcelona's Lionel Messi

“If Cristiano doesn’t win the Ballon d’or this year, it’s only because he’s not nice, because he doesn’t sell his image well,” Mourinho was quoted as saying by yesterday’s Portuguese sports daily A Bola. Unlike Messi, Mourinho added, Ronaldo had won a major title with Real the Spanish league.
