TheSonOfMark:Yeah true especially bale and benzema but I prefer it dat way as it keeps us on our feet. We might actually get relaxed and complacent in Europe if local rivals don't keep us on our toes I remember we had our worst defeat in Europe against bayern when we were cruising in la liga and our rivals were struggling So let them continue |

Leo Messi once again being compared to Michael Jordan While it’s tempting to try and compare Lionel Messi and Michael Jordan, it's no easy task. There are lots of parallels that can be drawn between the two. When they were young they were both thought to be too small before undergoing surprising growth spurts in late adolescence. Their propensity for dominating the highlight reels has also been mentioned. Their in-game intensity, daily work ethic, and global ubiquity are a few more examples. Now there's one more. After Messi won his jaw-dropping fifth Ballon d’Or award on Monday, there were immediate calls to equate that feat with the five NBA MVP Awards that Jordan won with the Chicago Bulls throughout his illustrious career. But while Jordan's five MVPs are tied for second all- time in the NBA with Bill Russell of the Boston Celtics, one ahead of Wilt Chaimberlain and the still- active LeBron James, and one behind the six won by Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Messi's five Ballons d'Or are the most ever. And Messi has some breathing room, too. In fact, in the history of football, only four other players have even won as many as three — Cristiano Ronaldo (2008, 2013 and 2014), Marco van Basten (1988, 1989 and 1992), Michel Platini (1983, 1984 and 1985), and Johan Cruyff (1971, 1973, 1974). The only question is, if Messi wins a sixth, who will they begin comparing him to then?

10 facts about the 2015 Ballon d'Or Gala This year's edition of the FIFA Ballon d'Or Gala saw Lionel Messi win the award for the fifth time. But there were plenty of interesting things that we did not see or hear about. Let’s take a peek: - Andrés Iniesta, who has never missed a Ballon d'Or Gala, didn’t make the podium this year, but was actually second in 2010, behind Messi. - Since FIFA has given the Ballon d'Or, the 41.3% of the votes that Messi received in 2015 are the third highest. The two highest were also his — 47.8% in 2011 and 41.6% in 2012. - The only three captains who did not vote were goalkeepers — Iker Casillas (Spain), Gianluigi Buffon (Italy) and Claudio Bravo (Chile). In addition, the football federations of Indonesia and Kuwait were suspended by FIFA and could not vote. - Luis Enrique became the second FC Barcelona head coach to win the award for World Coach of the Year, after Pep Guardiola, receiving 31% of the votes, ahead of Guardiola (22.9%) and Jorge Sampaoli (9.4%). - Wendell Lira, the curious winner Puskás, became the first player in the six years the award has been given to win it for a goal that was not scored in a top- flight competition. Lira, who played for Goianésia in Brazil’s Serie D, the fourth division, scored the goal in the Goiano state Championship. - Every year since 2007, the top scorer in the Champions League ended up winning the Ballon d'Or. Kaká did both that year with Milan. This year, coincidentally, the three finalists for the Ballon d'Or were tied for top scorer in the competition. - Four former Barça players attended the Gala — Samuel Eto'o (who presented the FIFPro World XI), Hristo Stoichkov and Luis Suárez Miramontes (members of the Barça expedition) and Edgar Davids. - La Liga has had more of its players win the Ballon d’Or than any other European league. No fewer than ten have come from clubs in the Spanish championship. - FC Barcelona’s spectacular five-title run in 2015 was well represented in the Ballon d’Or ranking, with four players in the top ten: Messi, Neymar, Suárez and Iniesta.

Leo Messi and Luis Enrique honoured by IFFHS FC Barcelona has once again been honoured by the IFFHS (International Federation of Football History & Statistics), with both Leo Messi and Luis Enrique picking up awards following another remarkable year in which the club won five out of a possible six major trophies. Messi honoured Leo Messi is the best playmaker of 2015, finishing above his captain and colleague, Andrés Iniesta. Voters from over 50 countries around the world gave the Argentinian 169 points, while Iniesta took 91. Some way behind in third place we find Italian Andrea Pirlo, formerly of Juventus and now of New York City FC, with 54. From 2008 to 2011, this honour was collected each year by former FCB midfielder Xavi Hernández, while the title went to Iniesta in the two editions after that. The Barça dominance was interrupted in 2014 by the German Toni Kroos, with Messi coming second. Luis Enrique, top coach The Barça manager was also recognised by the IFFHS after leading the team to the domestic double and the European title as well. Luis Enrique was named coach of the year with 165 points, followed in the ranking by former FCB boss Pep Guardiola, now of Bayern Munich, with 86 points, and by Massimiliano Allegri, manager of Champions League finalists Juventus, with 43 points.
