chrisley024:in the match against Switzerland, di maria got only 2.5 stars in goal.com rating just to show how useless he was in the match! normally after scoring the only goal in a match, the player use to even become MOTM, but di maria was far from it, so stop giving him undue praises! |

Who gives a shit about FIFA and their Messi fetish. Let d Messites and anti-Messites carry discussion over to other threads. Now that d WC is over Van Gaal can officially take charge and begin taking concrete steps. Have to say I am happy that the Carvalho talk has dampened. No way is he worth activating his release clause. Even though Herrer'sa price tag was steep, he is a player that do a decent job across all central midfield positions and even wide. Carvalho has no such versatility. 1 Like |

www.nairaland.com/attachments/1547809_image_jpeg9f360c5ab7736510df54c882e9dbf188 Further speculation was triggered when it emerged that for the first time the Golden Ball was decided by FIFA's Technical Committee, rather than by a media vote. The general consensus, however, remains that Messi was a little fortunate to receive the award and that his name and reputation may have earned him the prize. Former England captain Rio Ferdinand said on the BBC: 'I would have gone with James Rodriguez. He has played that exciting, attacking football and he has been trying to hurt the opposition. Messi has had some magic moments but you want them consistently.' Speaking on his final appearance as a BBC pundit, Alan Hansen echoed Ferdinand's sentiments, stating: 'I didn't think Messi has done enough. Four or five of the Germans have played better over the tournament.' 2 Likes |

elampiro: So how should a good player be judged? Making endless runs into space or gazillions of dribbles with silly end products? Messi was uber-nonsense throughout the knockout stage. Andre Schurrle was way better than him in the latter stages of the mundial E0D. |

I'm convinced Zidane was the highest goal scorer, highest assist provider and most shots on target in 2006... In the dream of those guys here. I have told people that football is more than these things. Otherwise the likes of Inzaghi, Van Nistelrooy, Iineker, Shearer should have won all the Ballon D'ors. RVP, Drogba, Rooney and Berbatov should have been voted EPL player of the season the two seasons Bale won it. * I suspect too someone has now opened the eyes of Maradona. The man is now obviously intimidated by Messi rise and rise. Next they go to Copa America. Argentina the clear favourite now. I beg, I no get time for the medegefede those guys dey yan. World cup is over. But I must find time to look at what whoscored.com said in many parameters. Argentina scored 7 goals in the world cup, Messi got 4 of those goals and assisted 1. Without his goals, Argentina would not get past the group. Wihout his magic, they could have been disgraced by Switzerland. He was the fear factor that held opponents back in the Q&S fnals as well as final. Without him, Argentina would be worse than England. The only two players who offered quality attacking partnership got injured- Di Maria and that number 22 guy. Enuf said on this. |

Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 2:58pm On Jul 14, 2014 |
Abeg abeg abeg. I Just looked at whoscored/opta best 11. Messi 8.5 Robben 8.4 Rodriquez 8.4 All the players rating dropped significantly at every sage of the tournament. The last time I checked was after the quarter finals. (Or was it 2nd round?). This means Rodriguez rating should have fallen further as the tournament went into Semis, if he were still around. Now, what a coincidence? This is a confirmation. Only Robben can lay claim 'cos he played the difficult matches. When the super stars and biggest teams met. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by SIRcumalot: 3:17pm On Jul 14, 2014 |
The uproar caused by this Golden ball award is enough confirmation that Messi doesn't deserve this award past winners won it without story of Ojoro. If Maradona can say he doesn't deserve then it is true. I laff at the though of Messi taking Maradona's place in the heart of the Argentine's 1 Like |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Nobody: 3:24pm On Jul 14, 2014 |
elampiro: Abeg abeg abeg.elampiro. Be consistent. The other day we were arguing about stats and the Germany/Algeria game. You refused to believe my stand that Germany was not lucky when I showed you the stats. Now you go and bring in opta to validate a point that we all know is false. How come you want to use stats to justify a position on one hand and dismiss the use of stats in another when it doesn't suit your original argument? |

Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 4:06pm On Jul 14, 2014 |
StarBoard: There is a big difference. This is a rating and not selected stat. 1. This is a collection of over 200 stats of what could happen to a player on the pitch to make a rating or ranking. Not a selection of two or three stats 2. This is also different in the sense that we are talking of individual players here. 3. I did not start the stat comparison on this topic. Since last nite we were being told how some players had hundreds of shots on target. I was looking at the general play. |

elampiro:But ratings are compiled from stats, no? And match stats aren't just two or three as you would want us to believe. But even you will have to admit that Messi was almost non-existent from the knock-out stages. Someone who didn't score in the crucial parts of the world cup cannot be the best player in the tournament. As Simple as that. |

Please tell us how many chances he created and how many sucessful dribbles since he was basically a deep lying play maker... Higuain and aguero lost the world cup..Dubious? I didn't compute it, it was done by a reputable organisation. I am not trying to paint messi as a bad player, I am just trying to show that he did not deserve the golden ball. There are many players that performed better than him especially in the latter stage of the competition. He is not even the best Argentina player 1 Like |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 4:36pm On Jul 14, 2014 |
StarBoard: That's what I am saying. Whoscored uses 200 match stats/parameters (goals, assists, CCC created, key passes, accurate crossing, dribbles, aerial due won, tackles won, possession lost, 50-50 balls won/lost, and hundreds more to arrive at that rating. It's comprehensive enough. As for whether he scored a knockout goal or not. Here lies the difference, I don't judge players by those stats alone. Messi and Robben were clearly the best from 2nd round to final. Without Messi, Argentina would be worse than England. Frank and Cecilia. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 4:40pm On Jul 14, 2014 |
If scoring a goal in crucial stage of a tournament wins the best player, then why don't we just say Gotze or Klose should have been given the golden ball? *** There were no players like Robben and Messi in the world cup. 1 Like |
