Ballon d'Or 2014

[typeclub]

It does have a big weighting, that's why Neuer is being discussed.

 

[Greendogg5]

should the heavy weighting also apply when so-called greatest player on the planet flops on the biggest stage

 

[typeclub]

I think so, still the best in the world

 

[Lethality]

How is it lame? Ronaldo is the best player on the planet at the moment .

Nah he's the best player in La Liga. Messi has him in Champions League and World Cup performances.

Di Maria was just voted Argentinian foreign-based player of the year by Argie journos.

Well he is Argentinas best player so makes sense.

Seems like someone beat you to it Cooksen

Ronaldo now has more goals and more assists than Messi this year with less appearances.

 

[Milanista28]

There is no doubt Ronaldo is the best player on the planet right now, Messi has stagnated for 18 months now.

Messi wasn't in contention for La Liga player of the year, didn't win Argentina foreign-based player of the year but he's in the top 3 of Balon d'Or thanks to politics.

 

[pieman123]

Messi might not be the best but he is clearly at least 2nd best

Just like Ronaldo's Ballon D'or last year

Still surprised CR7 won La Liga player of the tbh. Costa deservered it with what he achieved with Atletico in La Liga

 

[typeclub]

Ronaldo is well clear in a league of his own, then some daylight to Aguero and Neymar. Messi can't even manage to be the best at his own club, after failing to be best foreign player for Argentina.

inb4 Wenger buys Lacazette and no CDM/CB

 

[Magma]

* messi and penaldo, alex meier for ballon d'or

 

[typeclub]

Barca officials are refusing to attend the Balon d'Or and support Messi lol

Lacazette is a gun. Would be better for you than Welbeck and Giroud currently are.

Yes I'm aware those other two areas are more pressing needs of yours.

Can't remember which thread it was in, but we were having a discussion about who the best U21/U23/'young' players in the world were the other day weren't we?

FourFourTwo just published their list of the 23 Best Players Under 23:

23. Januzaj
22. Can
21. Bruma
20. Talisca
19. Lamela
18. Kane
17. Marquinhos
16. Lukaku
15. Barkley
14. Eriksen
13. Draxler
12. Coutinho
11. Moura
10. Varane
9. Koke
8. Sterling
7. Gotze
6. Alaba
5. Isco
4. Verratti
3. Courtois
2. Pogba
1. Neymar

In terms of players they've overlooked, Kovacic is a name that comes to mind. Hazard & Oscar probably would've been in there somewhere but have both just turned 23.

Also I'd have Ronaldo as number 1 but like Hazard and Oscar he's over 23 so he can't be on this list.

 

[Cruyff14]

Kane is better than Barkley IMO. And Eriksen better than Coutinho.

 

[ADL9798]

Smart ass, did he turn 23 2 days ago like Hazard?

 

[Rustin Cohle]

Hazard is 24.

 

[chef]

Zouma would be in there if he played more regularly.

 

[Bojan KantKick]

Aymeric Laporte should definitely be in there.
