The final 3 for the Ballon d'or has been narrowed down to Xavi, Messi and Christiano Ronaldo.

All worthy winners IMO.
 
All fantastic players, Messi will win though. Even though Ronaldo is nearly matching him for goals and assists, it would take something massive to displace Messi as the Ballon d'or winner.
Maybe if Real win the La Liga
