It's just like counting a country in Olympic who won 1 gold medal and 2 silver and saying the country who won 12 silver and 6 bronze is ahead.

FIFA best award is ahead of a million eufa.

Rondo fans are dripping wet emotional pussies with so much sentiment like a jilted virgin.

I can see why you'll never accept CR7 as being superior to M10. He ventures everywhere and soon he'll win the grand of Europe in Juventus while your M10 relax in his comfort zone to tip the bit of regular teammates and fans. Well, I'll not talk much but sit tight and watch this season how the real GOAT will use his new teammates and behold the sceptre of Europe Glory once again to show that he ain't sleeping. M10 could not just prove himself just for once in international grounds. Now he is just scoring one goal per international trophy while CR7 hit a hat-trick in his debut and left with the trophy in his second game, is that not awesome?

There is no rational intelligence in your argument

There is no way Messi beat Van Dijk in the past year. This shows Fifa is only interested in goal scorers and every other player is irrelevant.

Big shame on Fifa.

Let me ask u a question. If u are a manager of a soccer team and you were given funds to sign one player out of messi and Rinaldo who will you go for?


VVD: " Messi is the best player in the world and he deserves to win the Ballon d'or as long as he plays.. But if I am voted as the best player, I will take it"

Messi of course!!!

Ronaldo won nothing between 2009-2014. No one crucified him... Because we believe in his quality..
But because Messi did not win the UCL between 2015-2019, many disrespectful comments has been passed against him..

But his football colleagues still admitted that he is the best player in the world nevertheless!!!

Messi of course!!! cool cool

FIFA = FRAUD.

Fraudulent International Federation Award (Fifa) goes to the Local champion the Bingo of all times.

Same daylight robbery in 2010 repeating itself.

Little wonder they couldn't last with UEFA.

Van dyke was adjudged UEFA best in same Europe where the local champion plays. Not that the local bingo won anything internationally.

Goals that cannot bring international trophy or inter club trophy, is that one an achievement. Maltreatment of smaller teams that his salary can a complete team. Mtchhheewwww

If he won Uefa best then automatically Fifa best, since the bingo didn't achieve anything internationally.
Also alisson should have been given a look in the only keeper to achieve 3 golden gloves in a Season plus winning copa America and Ucl trophy.

Ronaldo is enjoying the tail end of his career.His priority now is keeping fit and winning 1 last UCL.He has simply done it all.He owes football nothing.Delivered on all fronts for country and club to the best of his ability.......with a mediocre Portugal, He has given them 2 international trophies nothing they never had b4.with Madrid he won 3 consecutive UCL titles.with manutd he became the 1st player to win the balon for considering the various greats that had played the EPL.. I jxt want to see Ronaldo play a little longer because he never stops fighting

Point of correction: Eder, with his stunning last-munite brilliance handed Portugal their EURO 2016 silverware. Give credit to whom credit is due.

And the UEFA Nations League is arguably an irrelavant competition. Even Jurgen Klopp described it as, "the most senseless competition in the world of football".

There was a time balon dor and FIFA best player of the year awards were a combined award, that was when messi won the award the most. So Messi's balon dors have inclination of FIFA best player of the year award. I think they splitted the two awards recently in 2017.

So don't forget!

I know you're a Messi fan but I have to tell you that you know nothing about football or May be you are being sentimental
1, Messi is not even among the top 2 best football players of all time. Pele gave Brazil 2 world cup trophies and scored more than 1000 career goals and about 100 hat tricks. He is far ahead of Messi in terms of goal scoring. May be you don't know that because you belong to the indomie generation.
2, Vvd is the most clinical and articulate defender in the premier league era. Vidic, John Terry and a host of other good defenders were good but not as good as the Dutch guy. Since last year January till this month no player had ever dribbled him except pepe of arsenal just a few weeks ago. He hardly pick cards unlike others. His brilliance is out of the world so he deserces ballon d'or ahead of Messi and Ronaldo and I know he will clinch it.


So what generation do you belong to? Did you watch Pele play?

Go sit your asss down boy.

The only think I care about is the D’or,all this ones are a waste of time.

The FIFA world best is rated higher than the Ballon D'Or because it is awarded by the apex footballing body. Over the past two decades players like Michael Owen and Nedved have won the Ballon d'or and were not even regarded as the best players on their continent then, when you had the likes of Figo, Ronaldo da lima and Zidane who won the FIFA world best at the same time.

So, in all as you can see, it's only a waste of time to you because Messi won. And I hope you will spend the quality time to watch another player, apart from CR7, lift the D'or come January grin.

U have any idea of VVD stats??. Name 1 game u can remember Messi for last season and why? For VVD it was UCL final,cos he was solid and organized the defence.For Ronaldo it was against atletico madrid in the UCL quarter finals

Is this a JOKE?? It appears that most CR7 fans here have a really really poor knowledge of football concepts and facts both currently and in the recent past.

One notable match Messi had last season?? Yet he scored 51 GOALS, including against the following -

UCL QF Manchester united - 2 goals and 1 goal involvement
UCL SR Lyon - 2 goals and 2 assists
UCL SF Liverpool - 2 goals including a UEFA goal of the season Free kick
UCL Tottenham - 2 goals with 2 goal involvements
La Liga Real Betis - Hat trick where he scored the Puska award nominated goal
La Liga Sevilla - Brilliant Hat trick again also with goal of the season contenders
La liga Valencia - brilliant brace

And many other matches. As a matter of fact, the GOAT had the most man of the match awards last season across all European competitions. If that is not notable, then I don't know what else is. Most viewers even agree that the UCL Final was more of Allison Becker's show than VVD's. In my informed opinion, VVD's outstanding game in UCL last season was against Bayern Munich. He was just good against Porto, average against Barca and good in the UCL final. For once, I agree with you that CR7 had only one notable game against ATM last season.

I know you want to jump into a response, but it will be of mental benefit to you to take your time to digest what I said and think well before replying.

Even kloff said it. Even VVD said it and as we all watched too. He is d Goat last seasing. And let me remind u again. To me mane was Liverpool best player. If u give FIFA best to vvd. wat of Ramos, pepe, pique, company, varane, terry, and others who has done even more better than vvd.

I'm not arguing that he's good or whatnot but if the awards are for only strikers, they should let the world know.


How in God's green earth do they expect a defender or a keeper to pull off Ronaldo /messi-like numbers when they know they will just be there to make up the numbers?

It's because you are taking Messi/CR7 like numbers for granted. To put this into perspective, a world-class striker (in top leagues) is considered to have a good season with 25 - 30 goals, an excellent season with 30 - 35 goals and an outstanding season (Ballon D'or nomination worthy) with 36 - 42 goals.

In Messi's worst season since 2009, he raked in 42 goals.

Messi scoring 50 plus goals for fun every season is no mean feat to be watered down simply because we are getting bored of it. Why aren't other strikers doing the same if it was easy? Salah in his glorious season scored 44 goals and he was being bandied about as the next best thing since sliced bread. Why should Messi suffer or be punished because he is being better than Salah?

The question you should ask youself is, Has VVD or any other defender consistently churned out performances that would be considered exceptionally out-of-the-ordinary far above what an outstanding defender ordinarily does? Cos this is the level Messi has been operating at.

At the end of it all, and if we are honest with ourselves, we'd agree that VVD has just been an outstanding defender, the current best in the world no doubt. When the likes of Messi and CR7 retires, then the VVDs can stake their claim as the world's best player.
