He lives up to billing. If Holland takes the cup, Sneijder is a lock for Ballon d'Or.

Messi - had a good World Cup. There's more to football than just scoring. Ronaldo - if you're talking about the Brazilian one, he didn't play. If you're talking about Cristiano, he's way over-rated. Rooney??? - since when's he been a superstar? Kaka - he was recovering from an injury and he's a midfielder not a striker.

So one measly goal (against North Korea!) is a disappointment. |
