Cristiano Ronaldo recently won his fifth Ballon d'Or, taking him level with rival Lionel Messi, ensuring that no other player has won the award since Kaka back in 2007.
It led recently retired Bayern Munich and Germany legend Philipp Lahm to come out and say: "It's time to change the Ballon d'Or. It's just a competition of popularity for the attackers", and when you really look at it, he certainly has a point.
It appears the award has been based on who scores the most goals and wins their team trophies. Whilst I'm not saying Ronaldo and Messi aren't valid winners, there's players who are making just as much of an impact in other positions that are being completely overlooked in favour of the headline acts.
