WORLD BEST? SALAH DIDNT WIN ANY TROPHY , OR DID HE WIN THE WORLD CUP? MODRIC WON ONLY CHAMPIONS LEAGUE, SAME WITH C.RONALDO. MESSI WAS THE HIGHEST GOAL SCORER IN THE WHOLE OF EUROPE LAST SEASON.....

Jarus:
I'm a Messi fan, but sentiments aside, Messi has no place in Top 3. Anyone can win league.

Forget league, it is basic. It doesnt count much

BiafranBushBoy:
This is a world best, not LA liga best player...

De Brunye also won league and Carling cup... Should he also be nominated?

Sundayjoko:

It's like you Messi fans all say when it comes to Ronaldo goals arent all in football so don't fall back on being the highest goal scorer in Europe now because GOALS AREN'T ALL IN FOOTBALL

E pain dem

Jarus:


Same Salah booted out Roma that booted out Messi from UCL.

Same Salah, half fit, scored 2 goals in 2 matches in WC. Messi scored 1 in 4 matches.

abduljabbar4:
Salah didn't win anything sef

khingTony:
Who awards epp?
Messi is the best jhoorrr

Tokziby:

I can go on and on. I started having my doubt in fifa since 1999 when Figo could have won it.

oga...stfu...ur not a Barca fan....lwkmd.....if URL really are a Barca fan u wouldnt HV said anybody can win the league , oga Barca was shit last season , they were so shit that they needed Messi to play almost all the league games ....u need to watch Barca last season , forget the unbeaten stuff ....they were shit , thank God for Ter , umtiti , rakitic .....without Messi Barca wouldnt have been in the top 3 , its like u didn't watch Barca last season .....Barca got knocked out of the UCL cos u can't depend on one man alone in the UCL , and that's fact mate , de deceive your self say u b Barca fan , Messi deserves to b in the top 3 , the fact that Ronaldo wasn't consistent sef discards him already , but who cares , just win the UCL , or go to the final, a guy that dominated laliga last season ? U de say any body can win the league , is it not an individual award? Sha wetin concern me all this awards have been shit since 2012 . So I don't really care , Ronaldo , Messi, modric .

I am a CR7 fan but come on, Salah should not be there and Mess should be up there with CR7

Salah performed for just one season was a no show aat the world cup and he makes it to the top 3?

Wow

Jarus:
I'm a Messi fan, but sentiments aside, Messi has no place in Top 3. Anyone can win league.

Forget league, it is basic. It doesnt count much.

The 2 most important competitions in the year were world cup and the UCL.

Modric stole the show in WC.

CR7 and Salah stole the show in UCL.

It is an unpardonable embarrassment of Messi to get booted out of UCL at QF.

He had WC as second chance but he ended up even awful in WC.

Guys, let us put sentiments aside, Messi has no place in Top 3 in the world in 2018.

Same Salah booted out Roma that booted out Messi from UCL.

Salah, half fit, scored 2 goals in 2 matches in WC.


Messi scored 1 in 4 matches.

Over 200 coaches and captains throughout the world cannot be wrong in their voting.

Jarus:


One season? So the 2018 world best should be based on 3 years performance?

By the way, a half fit Salah got more goals in less games than Messi at the WC.

11doubledee:
Is messi not a better footballer than Salah and modric (year in,year out)
I think it's high time nairaland starts to conduct it's own awards.At least it will be rational,free and fair.
Whoever we vote should be the world's footballer of the year.

Jarus:


Yes.

Modric beat him in an important WC game.
Salah booted out Roma that booted out Messi.

Modric played in the final of the 2 most important competitions in the year.

Salah played in the final of 1.

Messi did not get anywhere close to final in either.

A half-fit Salah scored 2 WC goals in 2 matches. Messi scored 1 in 4 matches.

Over 200 coaches and captains across the world are not blind.

Jarus:


I am a very very big fan of Messi, but I can't fool myself in the name of being a fan of anybody. It's a disservice to my education to deny what is glaring.

policy12:



Argue with ur phone.

BiafranBushBoy:
This is a world best, not LA liga best player...

De Brunye also won league and Carling cup... Should he also be nominated?

Promzyunique:
And all these barca fans forgot,how messi was favoured in 2010 in wesley Schneidjers place...hahhaa karma is something else

wolexy14:
