Seriously

Passes, goal scoring, assist making, midfield control, tackles, headers, speed, PK, free kicks.... Lampard is better than Modric in all...

Lampard na attacking midfielder right from time, can't dictate play. Modric on the other hand is the complete package, can defend, can dictate the pace of the game, and can fucking attack!

JOHNSONSOLAFUNMI:
FIFA should give Iniesta, Xavi, Sneidejer their own award

Since it's based on World Cup performance
Note, it is not FIFA best award but FIFA symphaty award

You, what have you done with your life? Looser.

Are whoscored.com and sqwaka recognized by fifa?

They are credible football stats websites.
FIFA award was decided by people who voted out of sentiments and not facts (stats).

Dude, those stats on those sites are simple incremental stats that can easily measured and don't really say anything.
Also, advanced stats aren't really used in football like Baseball or basketball. Football is not a game of statistics, and advanced stats aren't available to the public as they are collated by sports data companies like OPTA!

Goals, key passes, number of passes, chances created, number of completed dribbles, number of duels won.

You mean these stats don't mean anything?
Ok. Continue.

Are those the only stats in football?

Many more.
But a supposedly world best, should be high ranked in those key stats.
There is a reason why only Top class players top those stats.

Can you show that the above 4 stats should be the determinant of the "world class footballer".
Or do you just use them because they can easily be measured?

You are saying That Modric does things that can't be measured, while other players don't?

It is possible that he does more things that are immeasurable that others, or not.
If you want stats in soccer, contact OPTA and pay, and will furnish you with enough data you need not these goal, assists, goal+assists, key passes brouhaha.

And you think you made sense?

What stats do opta keep exactly?

Dude, opta keeps hundreds of stats more advanced than those you see on transfermarkt, sqwaka, and whoscored. Most of their stats are not available to the public.

The SAME set of people who voted in the past three editions Ronaldo won. So why accuse them of bias now, if they have always voted based on their SENTIMENTS right from time, even in 2014 when Ronaldo didn't actually deserve it?

andrew444:
Ronaldo shamelessly stayed back and not Messi okay,Messi was not nominated at least,must you bring Messi to everything?

Shame on Ronaldo for staying at home,I hope he does so during the balon d or

Stop going back and forth. Messi was among the last three nominated in 2016 but because Ronaldo won the champions league and Euro, he knew there was no hope for him so he stayed back.

Simple question, why did Messi not go even when he was among the last three in 2016?. Is it because of his ego and pride or those words are exclusive to Ronaldo?

We either say its pride for both of them or its not for both of them when the scenario is the same. Stop being hypocritical and stop using double standard.
