Dimitar Berbatov claims Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo 'don't deserve' to be finalists for tonight's FIFA Best Awards... as he insists Bayern Munich star Robert Lewandowski should scoop prize ahead of legendary pair

Dimitar Berbatov believes Robert Lewandowski should be crowned men's player of the year ahead of FIFA's annual 'The Best awards'.
