raumdeuter. I want your take on this. Between Kaka and Rivaldo who was better? Seeing that both are attacking midfielders.

Lol... I hate using that racism card for any small thing, but you see this issue, I can't complain.

Mendy not in that list is absolute nonsense. There are up to 5 names that can be scrapped in favor of Mendy

One thing I've noticed about europe is the many minnows competing against the few elite teams. Everywhere you look, you see minnows. No wonder england and the likes are thrashing teams like san marino and andorra.
Few elite teams but you have teams like Holland, Italy, France, England missing world cup in the recent past. Who no get minnows? Venezuela, Bolivia, Peru are what?

Messi was charged down, the angle was slightly narrow. For messi quality he should have scored but nobody will blame him for missing cos that can happen. It's easier for messi to miss than to score in that angle. Same can't be said of Higuain whose own was easier to score than to miss

Well, he was indecisive when he got the ball, gave the defenders time to recover and bear on him. However, the defenders were still behind him when he took his shot..
Maybe, had he scored that goal, the match would have been theirs....

Jodera why are you stressing yourself?

Just ask Dayo what has changed between now and 2018 that has made him change his stance...

What stance changed o?

I have always maintained that Copa is the equivalent of Euros just like AFCON Concacaf Oceania nations cup

They are not equal in quality

Its not the fault of players who are born in South America or Africa but its still doesnt make it equal

Do you think Sterling deserves a spot in the list given that he is not even a regular for his club

What if he was talking about his position as a defender in general having to work their ass off on the pitch and still get overlooked for most awards?

Yeah... Esp the bolded is true. But one thing I do know is that chances like that can be missed and everyone will not to remember it but critical chances like the one higuain had will always be remembered cos such chances are easier to score.

See Aiyegbeni 2010 miss for example, till now Nigerians are still blaming him for our elimination in the group stage even tho he was among the scorers that day. Funny thing is that Martins missed a very good chance too but people rarely talked about that cos of how glorious Big Yak own was(2m away from an empty net) plus that goal would have carried us to the next round

Well he referenced Mendy before saying those words so we know he was referring to Mendy in that context

Its close but I will go with Rivaldo, Probably if Kakas career wasn't cut short by injuries it might have been different. There were flashes in Kakas game that made me feel he was capable of doing much more

You talked about big trophies in 2018 and you mentioned WC and UCL then proceeded to euros/copa (note the slash you put).

What changed that copa was a big trophy and standing alongside euros in 2018 but in 2021 it's now a tier below it?

Is African Mendy different from European Mendy? They are both black. You can say the Balon being a voting thing has always been prone to prejudice

Characteristics of a polling booth award

Goalkeepers are not usually favoured in these type of polling booth awards, Only Donarumma made it into the list of 30 and was named the best player at the Euro

I am sure there are keepers who did better than many outfield players on that 30man list

Polling both na polling booth
