What nonsense is this?
The UEFA men's player of the year award is given based on performance in all competitions including domestic league, league cup, international and international club competitions. Luka Modric deserved the award ahead of everyone, he was los blancos best player in the UCL and the best player in the FIFA World Cup, it's about INDIVIDUAL PERFORMANCES and not about GOALS or ASSISTS.

If you think Ronaldo deserved the award ahead of Modric because he's the champions league top goalscorer then you are specially retarded.

[quote author=Dailymemoirs post=70771140][/quote]..common just one award to acknowledge the contribution of modric... Una sef...ronaldo get am plenty naaa

the truth is, I don't know who modric is whenever Madrid plays, I concur to the fact that he did tremendously well in the just concluded world cup tournament......but this is UEFA's award! if you know you know, if you don't know then...kee yasef.

Sanchez01:

So they say but Messi won the 2010 edition despite Mourinho and Wesley Sneidjer leading Inter Milan to Champions League glory at the expense of the same Messi. Pray tell, what went wrong?

Wasn't there an outcry like now too? Till date people sti refer to that award as an award that was stolen from Sneidjer.. What made matter worse was even the fact that Sneidjer went all the way to the same world cup final, ending as joint highest goal scorer too... Uefa couldn't even itself in that scenario

gurunlocker:


Lol.... You really think he will win the Ballon D'or? Because he won the champions league? In fact he won't win FIFA the best award (Mbappe or Griezmann are in better position to win)....

I am no Ronaldo hater but sentiment apart, Ronaldo is just a goal scorer and nothing more. His team mate sacrifice a lot just to make sure he score and feel happy.

Have you noticed something about Ronaldo in the last 3 years? He always flop in the first half of the season and then have a good 3 or 4 months (He will score tone of goals within that month), but someone that has been consistent throughout the season won't even win what he won.

Did you remember voting was extended because he scored an hattrick against Sweden when he won his second Ballon D'or? What do you have to say about that?

Why did you think Perez allowed Ronaldo to go but stopped Modric with every means?

On Monday,FIFA Best players nominees will be unveiled on Monday.

Believe Modric and Ronaldo might make it to the final and either Mbappe or Griezmann will be the third man.

The people's vote determine the winner.

It is clear that they never wanted Ronaldo to win, if it's Messi, they will say no doubt he was outstanding and outclassed others but here is CR7 who was unarguably the best being snubbed, they messed up big time. we soccer lovers are not fools. Modric was outstanding at world cup no doubt but they don't include WC in this judgement.

Nbote:
Some of U fanboys are funny.. Does it make sense dat becos he had a few gud games he deserves to win d award?? Ronaldo had a poor season last season whether U want to admit it or not... D awards are based on overall performances all over d season, not a few gud performances . D season started in August and Madrid had to do without Ronaldo's goals till January/February and if not for Modric's consistency Zidane would have been sacked by November and then becos Ronaldo scored in d quarter finals and semi-finals of d champions league he's better than d person who's being there from d group stages?? I'm sure U ppl are waiting for him to score in Juve to tell everyone how he's already d best player in d Serie A

I shouldn’t have reply but to set the record straight; the award is based on champions league and not any other

olaolaking:
What special things did modric do? How many matches did Madrid win because Modric was so spectacular?

It is not only goals l but scoring is an advantage

Okay let’s agree Ronaldo got robbed.
So who do you think should win the next ballon d’or

Yeah, I know it will be unveil on Monday.... But my guess is Griezmann, Mbappe and Modric/Ronaldo.

nelsonebby:
Ronaldo didn’t score or attempt to score in the semifinals and finals.

Scoring penalties can’t make you the best

Real fans know modric deserves it.



Man united fans are actually the ones complaining.

Wetin some of una de take before coming online?

Had Ronaldo remained in Madrid he might have won, I believe Madrid, Barca, Spain, Messi all had a hand in ensuring Ronaldo was snubbed.

Nobody deserves the award more than greizman

He won world cup
He won UEFA cup
He won UEFA super cup
He was second in La Liga


If anybody else wins it then its pure fraud

[quote author=nelsonebby post=70770797][/quote]

I think we should call Roma for barca since there the new medicine for Barcelona.

last season
Roma 3:0 Barcelona
Barcelona 2: 4 Roma .this month

ronaldo deserve it.


wetin modric play?.


Ronaldo set record oo.

scored from group stage till juventus game.


abeg i wan knw wetin modric do to win dis award.

its not all about scoring and record but consistency

you claim to have indepth knowlege of foot but you are just being beclouded with hate and zero brain..the UEFA award is based on the performances in UEFA competition only excluding league and worldcup performances, Or peharps you are confusing ballon d"or with UEFA award, well modric had a good outings no doubt about, but Ronaldo also as much as Modric, He scored in 11 straight matches, 3 assist with overall 15goals,with player of weeks while modric only managed 1 goal, 1 assist, Ronaldo goals singlehandedly defeated juve being the most difficult opponent, atleast give it to him d guy is good

Others will also have reason to vote for the others

BTW what if he doesn't make it to the final 3 stage? Will it stop FIFA from giving the award to someone else?

Good! Now let's compare and contrast:

1. Ronaldo won the Champions League final just as Modric being team mates.

2. Modric was consistent for Madrid all through while Ronaldo suffered goal drought for a while before finding his rhythm in the UCL.

3. RONALDO is a forward player (the same as Messi). Sneidjer is a midfielder (the same as Modric).

4. As per the WC, Ronaldo's highlight was against Spain, after scoring a hat trick at their opening match. Modric's role is quite different as he is not equipped or tasked with scoring goals. However, his brilliance all through the campaign was noticed.

5. Ronaldo failed to win the WC, let alone reach the final of the WC. Modric, as well failed to win the WC with his under dogged Croatian side but inspired all through the tourney.

6. Ronaldo had a poor season at Real Madrid this past. The world only forgot because he complimented by scoring goals in the UCL.

With this, how was Ronaldo any better than Modric who contributed greatly to so many of his goals last season?

There is no denying that Ronaldo is a brilliant goal scorer but age caught up with him a long time ago and had been forced to rely on the brilliance of Marcelo, Kroos and Modric.

NB: If Ronaldo feels he is cheated, let him start by scoring his first Serie A goal at the weekend and even do a hat trick, like he would easily at Madrid, to tell the world he was robbed.

This is clear cheating

abeg i wan knw wetin modric do to win dis award.

Football is not just about scoring goals,Modric is a Midfielder and he was great for Madrid from day one of the season till the end of it which is more than I could say about Ronaldo..
You may not have noticed what he played because you were more concerned with who scored and how many he scored..thank God you were not among the voters..

I doubt you know a thing about football. Who compares a forward and a midfielder

I won't be surprised if you pull up Messi VS Sergio Busquet's to prove the former is better than the latter.

it would be fraudulent if Greizman doesn't win it let alone not making top three

You made a point but saying Modric played 26 matches with 6 assist and he contributed greatly to his CR7 goals?

You guys make it look like he had over 20 assist in 2017/18 season.

Every member of the team make an impact in goals scored.

Ronaldo fans right now

So according to you and ALL these STRIKER vs MIDFIELDER stats,Ronaldo had a better World Cup than Modric?..Really?

I am sorry if it's the way u reason then I can't help u

Dont mind those that cares about scoring alone.

Ronaldo has always been a low life classless shitbag.



Considering just few months ago Modric was still his teammate, his decision to snub the award because he didn't win show a lack of class and respect towards Modric.



His agent and sister also poured scorn on Modric winning. It's a disgrace

Dailymemoirs:

Uefa have named Luka Modric as the winner of the Best player award for last season’s edition of the Champions league. The 32 year old amassed a total of 313 points, 90 more than Ronaldo who finished ahead of Mohammed Salah in the chart.
While Ronaldo was instrumental in his team reaching a third consecutive Uefa Champions league finals and trophy Modric was however named best player by a combination of coaches and journalist a decision that has upset Juventus director and Ronaldo’s agent Jorge Mendes.

” Football is played on the field and that’s where Cristiano won. He scored 15 goals carried Real Madrid on his back and conquered the Champions league again.
The winner is not in doubt as Ronaldo is the best in his position” Mendes told

The Juventus director Giuseppe Marotta also fumed over the decision as he felt Ronaldo deserved to be crowned best for his performances in the Champions league and not robbed by an unfair decision.

” Our criticism concerns a deep bitterness for the decision because the award refers to the Champions league and not the world cup and I believe that Cristiano Ronaldo has given the best emotions of the world cup and also fantastic goals. I take nothing away from the football coaches and journalist but I would have voted for Ronaldo as a football fan.

Cristiano Ronaldo did not show up at the event a sign that he felt cheated after a stunning campaign which saw him score in eleven consecutive matches from the earlier season up till the Juventus game in Spain a record no one had achieved ever
For more

https://dailymemoirsnews./2018/08/31/uefa-snubbing-ronaldo-doesnt-make-sense-by-soibi-ransom/

Mendes is a clown
Four players were central to madrid's three peat ucl:modric,kroos,ramos,marcelo
I like cr7 but recently if he does not score he weighs his team down

johnstar:
Luka modric deserves it


They both won champions league



Ronaldo couldn’t help is country to d world cup final


But luka modric did it


So he deserves it


Congrats luka modric

Its not by goals dat will make u win d best player
Its by helping your team

Next is eden hazard

Brother Think Right, Why bring World Cup into this?

post=70770152:
Time for another debate .

Modric had a great world cup, if that was one of the criteria, which we don't think it is.

World cup performance is not considered for uefa awards
