and how many did De Bruyne get against top clubs in UCL this seasonhuh
2 against Napoli and one against Shakthar Donetsk. Both teams have far better uefa coefficient points and ranking than the likes of Spartak Moscow and Maribor. Liverpool had the easiest run in to a final for any club since Real Madrid's 2016 win.

Lol..bro... those stats are for this season... Messi is just a goal ahead of both.
And he won golden boot, la liga player of the year, la liga golden boot etc.

Salah won PFA player of the year, EPL golden boot, BBC player of the year etc.

For me a 38 game competition matters more than a 13 game knockout competition.

It's not easy to be consistent across 38 games.

But las las world cup would be the ultimate decider.

At the emboldened, I have been saying that on several threads. The league is by far a better indicator of a good team or player or a coach. In domestic leagues, teams play a lot of matches and everyone plays everyone hence the luck factor, from favorable draws, refs errors, injury to oppositions players etc, is eliminated.

That's why I rate Messi ahead of Ronaldo and even though Zidane has won the Champions League three times in a row now he's still inferior to Pep. In fact, I rate a couple of other managers ahead of him.

Lol so you are seriously bringing politics into sport now?man football is just a game what happens on the pitch stays on the pitch even salah who was the victim was not this bitter cos he knew it is part of the game...how come people didn't come for Payet when he injured Ronaldo in the Euro finals...The red cards Ramos have gotten is not gonna take away his place among the history of the greatest defenders the game has ever seen
The analogy is accurate. A defender who can't do his work fairly is like a politician who keeps winning by killing people

Go and sit so.ewhere what is the meaning of this nonsense for goodness sake? Ramos this Ramos that who the hell is Sallah that he can't pick up injury? Every player, every sport person is borne to pick injury one way or the other and it does not mafter how big is the competition.

Pls is Real Madrid kano pillar or ifeanyi uba football that your Sallah will intimidated? Nigeria Simeon Victor is out of our world cup list due to injury he picked up pls who do we fight nowhuh Nigerians sometime behave like an idiots taken panafol for another person headache pls to what usefulness is Sallah to you or to Nigeria Mr Sallah advocatehuh Follow sport with your brain. Good morning.
Its you that is behaving like an idiot look at the silly grammatical error that you made there. Instead of you to back to school you are here displaying your stupidity. Real Madrid was obviously scared of salah. they couldn't do anything for the 30 mins that he was in until when they finally eliminated him. Simple

Lol... you are right though... buh Ronaldo also won the champions league and UCL golden boot... Also he would win European best player too, if Real beats Athletico and he scores...

However, I wish someone else can win it... I'm tired of them both... As a Madrid fan though, next season I hope Madrid doesn't pass the group stage though... Let other teams win too....

Stop being a joker, man! Now, lemme tell you, there's a difference between what Ramos did and election rigging/violence. The last time I checked tackles&fouls are still part of the norms in football, as provided in the rules. Whereas, electoral violence is against all form of electoral rules. Ramos simply played by the rules! He is a leader! If you were in his shoes, would u have allowed Salah to mesmerize u, and ultimately crush d dreams of ur team? Oh, you would have kissed, hugged and patted him on d back? Defence is nt a position for gentlemen. u gotta be ruthless. Ask Stam, vidic, chiellini, Gattuso (DM Tho) etc. It's high time we stopped judging football with emotional attachments. Football is not ZEEWORLD! #GetWellSoonMoSalah
You are just showing how dumb you are for saying that foul is legal in a football game. This is soccer and not rugby. If he doesn't want salah to crush his dreams then he should go for the tack like a football player and not a thuggish coward. Football is not wrestling

Guy forget...Zidane is better than pep for the past 3 years.... He also won the league last year, hope you remember?? Do you know how many times Zidane rotated his team this season?? Do you know how many matches Ronaldo missed??

UCL is the biggest competition in a season... If according to league games, we may as well say Juve is better than Madrid or Icardi is better than Suarez or Ronaldo na....

Nice combo from UEFA but Mane should be on that list kiss
Mane should be on the list. Messi should not be there. Every other person deserves to be there. The only person who should not be there is Messi. He scored 4 goals and hardly did anything as a forward. Mane, Firmino, Sallah scored 10 and all made it to the final. Messi should not be there. This is robbery.

Zidane is not better than Pep. Finishing 17 points behind Barcelona and 7 or 8 points behind Athletico, only winning the Champions League because refereeing goes his way, I'm sorry, I rate few other managers ahead of him.

Be realistic....can u mention a politician that has never engaged in at least one of those things that is not proper. I guess Ramos past is what is hunting him right now, had it been the tussle happened betwn salah & modric/isco...u guys won't be saying all this

Nd mind you, politics is nt an ideal illustration in this scenario cos every known politician has come out to confirm that politics is indeed a dirty game.
Again, rules are rules but did Ramos break any rule??......Del horno did something similar to messi during 05/06 UCL 2nd round, nd messi go on to miss d rest of d season....there was no fuss like dis........d game has come and gone, everybody shld move on

Ramos may be wrong and he may not....it depends on d angle are viewing it from. With what people have been clamoring for, it simply means Jose Mourinho ought to have been expel from football and all things related to football judging by his malicious tactics.....yet he is still regarded as one of the best coaches the game has ever seen.

There are many precedents in the game of football that proved that its the end that justify the means.

In my perspective as u put it....did Ramos break any rule...morally he might be wrong, Legally definitely No
