No politics Modric was a deserved winner ,remember it was a World Cup year ?if Modric didn't win that balon d or ,it belongs to Cr7 and not even Messi

I don't think Liverpool players will be given balon d or even if they win champions league which they won't win .

Should I remind you that sneidjer won the champions league and frank ribery ,Cr7 and Messi took those balon d or

Messi will take the balon d or this time after coming 5th last time

Forget all this politics stuff ,Modric deserves last balon d or

Even if Liverpool won Madrid in that final ,Highest salah can get is making the top 3 ,he won't even dream of winning it

I am not sure why you seem to be getting so heated, over a subtle observation.

Nonetheless, you have essentially with much detail confirmed my view, opinion and or observation.

Let me reiterate, I find that people in Agbor are just like many other parts of Nigeria overwhelmingly have given thier children European derived names. Which l think is very sad as a Nigerian.

I gave you the example of Nduka Obiagbiona and asked if his name is Igbo derived. You have answered that question albeit indirectly but still comprehensively.

So what is the core issue ❓ l seems we are delving into the politics of ethnicity, let me presume, that does being Igbo derived in origin or heritage make you Igbo ❓ ❓

Quite emphatically the paramount traditional ruler of Agbor has made it VERY RESOUNDINGLY CLEAR that they are not Igbo. Although they without doubt are historically by origin derived from the Igbo ethnicity. His answer is a capital NO.

But in today's contemporary Nigeria and ethnic dynamics they do not consider themselves to be Igbo.

That would be the same position for the Uhrobo/Isoko, Kwale and other somewhat Igbo derived and mixed ethnic groups in Delta state.

Don't presume that l am ignorant that's being condescending. I actually speak Igbo (central) l spent near 5 years at UNN where my Dad lectured for a period. And mixed with a lot of people who speak so many differing dialects it's impossible to number them.

I may have been born in the UK but l can assure you l was made in Warri.

Bros, I was actually happy to see Modric win it last year. To me, it was anybody but Cristiano

However, if ballon d'or is given to the best player in the world then Messi had the best season in Europe last season. He might have had an average world cup but he had a fantastic season with Barca. And the stats bear that out.

Lol concerning the Modric side

Messi is getting his 6th balon d or this time ,no worry

Icon79:
Amen! That day I will throw a big party!!

If Messi gets his 6th Ballond'or I don't see C. Ronaldo getting his 6th

That means Messi is officially the greatest player of all time!!!

forgiveness:


Llorente didn't use his hand to aid any goal. The video showed his hand moved away from the ball. It didn't move towards the ball.

I understand why you emotional, it's what fans do, however try to be objective, do you want players to start cutting off their hands to avoid handball? read this piece that explains why the goal stood http://www.espn.com/soccer/uefa-champions-league/775/blog/post/3829001/explaining-the-var-drama-why-fernando-llorentes-goal-stood-as-spurs-eliminated-man-city?device=featurephone

In terms of goals and assists, Messi stood out but the gap was not wide from CR7. However with CR7 being super in the Champions League and claiming it a consecutive third plus his historic game against Juventus and plus his brilliance in the game against Spain at the World Cup, you can not deny him his Ballon D'Or for Messi.

Earthquake3:


Modric was brilliant through out the world cup and brilliant at the champions league

Without winning a spoon for Argentina?

TheGoodJoe:


That is when you are debating if it is a penalty. It is unfair when a defending player is not making an attempt to stop the opposition from scoring a goal and the ball hits his arm. Especially, if his arm is tuck close and does not make him bigger. In this case, Llorente was the attacking player and use his hand to aid a goal.

The VAR drama there was to check for the possibility of a handball and they refuse to use the angle that clearly shows this. Llorente's arm played a role in scoring the goal. Handball any day. Even the referee knows.

Earthquake3:


Thankfully National team trophy is not the only criteria for judging Ballond'or winner

How can u leave dis guy out of afcon squad..... I no jus understand

andrew444:


They hate pep because he has schooled them over there in the Epl and he is from Barcelona

They also forget conte won the Epl in his first season at Chelsea

Ferdinard doesn't say nonsense he knows what he says and he is not bias like carragher who was crap during his playing days but knows how to criticize a player who is not English ,should I also remind you of Gary Neville ? One of the worst manager in the history of laliga

I don't want to talk about the city game as I respect VAR ,Tottenham are the deserved winners ,football is some how most times

darkelf:


The way they are hyping this boy now ehn....

Hmmm...make I no talk before they tag me hater. Should this guy flop in AFCON after taking him there, some fans for here go call for him head

charlesemeka85:
Messi can win dozens of balon d ors but in Argentina Diego amando Maradona will always remain their greatest ever! And am not arguing about him emerging as the next balon d or winner but tagging him the greatest of all time I disagree

Earthquake3:


Who should be greatest of all time if I may ask you

Its not Messi's fault that Argentinian FA keep appointing shitty coaches

charlesemeka85:
The kid is obviously talented but the hype is getting too much and I pray it doesn't affect his development. Even onyekuru who have been massive in the Turkish league doesn't get the attention and hype samu is getting. He should remain with Villarreal if they escape relegation to gain more playing time which will aid his development

charlesemeka85:
Without winning a spoon for Argentina?

charlesemeka85:
do not allow sentiment becloud your sense of reasoning. winning trophies every season for barca coupled with scoring dozens of goals can't make him that. he has to win something tangible atleast the copa america to attain the height of being the greatest. i will recommend you search for videos of argentina's route to winning 1986 world cup for you to know how important and immerse maradona was to achieving that feat. he single handedly won the world cup for his nation which inked his name as their greatest player ever both dead and alive

Bros, If I may ask you a certain question (and I mean no offence by it), since when were you a fan of Manchester City?

Its quite rare for any Nigerian to support city. I take it its since Guardiola came right? If so, is it that you're a fan of Guardiola and not city?
