Down two places to fifth, Neymar has not quite pushed on as expected after a magnificent 2015. He might be No1 one day. But not yet. Not without greater consistency. This is not to say that Neymar has had a bad year. By the standards of most players, it has been wildly successful. Not content with helping Barcelona to  win La Liga  and the  Copa del Rey  again, he also knocked home the deciding penalty as Brazil, under pressure on home soil,  claimed Olympic gold in men’s football for the first time in their history , and he has been in excellent goalscoring form for his country in World Cup qualifying since the summer. The spotlight was on Neymar when Messi and Argentina visited Belo Horizonte last month. He was on the scoresheet in  a 3-0 win for Brazil . Yet he has not performed at his usual high level for Barcelona this season, scoring only six goals by mid-December, and there has been a little weariness to his play. There have been legal problem...

        The “war” on fat is  lost , and many fats and oils have been making a comeback as                 health foods.

Luis Suárez The best of the “other” players after a season in which at club level he could even make a case to have been better than the “other two”. “When Neymar and Messi play, I try to get out the way,” he said, but on the final day of a league season which had begun with him scoring the only goal,  his hat-trick clinched the title . That was appropriate: he got more goals and more assists than anyone in Spain in 2015-16. His 40 La Liga goals were more than anyone else has ever scored – apart from Messi and Ronaldo – and it was the first time one of them had not been top scorer in seven years. He scored regularly in the Champions League too and, by mid-December, he was just three short of 100 Barcelona goals.

It is a measure of Cristiano Ronaldo's astonishingly consistent excellence that a year in which he won the Champions League with Real Madrid before captaining Portugal to victory at Euro 2016 is widely considered to have been a quiet one by his own preposterously high standards. While his apparently insatiable desire to make everything from the most informal dressing-room team photo to the highlight reels of the biggest football spectacles all about him may grate more often than amuse, it is difficult to ignore the reality that football's most preening showman is rarely found wanting ... even on the rare occasions he is found wanting. Having failed to score in the Champions League final, he stepped up to fire home the decisive spot-kick in the shootout. After limping off in the first half of Portugal's win over France in the Euro 2016 decider, he appointed himself de facto coach to roar, gesticulate and  will his less talented team-mates to victory  against the hosts.
