10 - Lionel Messi - v1

[ricknattery]

What a stupid, hateful post. Sorry, but Iniesta won the same trophies Messi did. This is a team sport. But I take you are just Messi's fan, not fcb's. Also, if you love Messi so much, you should see he was genuinely happy for Iniesta tonight.

well truth is Messi had one of his best seasons(if not the best) individually. Iniesta played a major role with his NT though and that was his edge. Happy for him, he totally deserves recognition for being an awesome footballer an person nonetheless. With Messi being around the other players have it difficult to win individual trophies

lets not forget that he has even a greater aspect of his game than it is scoring. he has gave most assists in clasicos history at the age of 24!!!

Unfortunatelly few persons are acknowledging this aspect of his game.

like beast who said that those passes that me made to full backs yesterday wasn't anything special.

Honestly, I am really glad Iniesta won it, I was hoping from him to win, he deserves to win an individual award. But I still think Messi deserves Ballon'dor this year and I hope he'll win it.

And those are the same persons that when they compare Messi with Cristiano they only mention the no. of goals the 2 of them scored.

Messi was very good with Argentina too! 9 goals 5 assists. If this trophy is individual than Messi should have won! For me Iniesta wasn't the best in EU! Pirlo was better.

 

[kroki223]

Messi and Ronaldo the same? Can these journalist really watch football matches? Messi gives a lot of assists too.

 

[Jadentheman]

Iniesta was one of the reasons why Spain was lackluster. Where is Pirlo in this? I think some of these awards have a bit of Barca bias. Not that it's bad for many here, but I feel some players don't get the recognition they deserved because the La Masia guys are overshadowing them.

I know Messi was very happy for Iniesta............but does anyone else think with that grin on his face that he was doing his best not to p!ss himself laughing at Cristiano Ronaldo not winning it?

Seriously, I've lost all hope of Messi winning the ballon'dor if Ronaldo actually got the same amount of votes as Messi. Faith in humanity, lost.

When the voting ceremony of the Ballon d'Or is coming closer there stats will be compared more and more. Messi's are fat better so no need to worry. If anyone other than Leo or Andres wins it, well than I will lose my faith too.

that was just right after watchin CR lifting a trophy with Barcelona on the pitch. I believe this time decision could go either way though, Iniesta is a firm candidate as well. It will depend on how la liga goes

Btw, the voter for Spain was from Marca and Portuguese journalist ofc voted for Ronaldo, 2 bolted on votes and he still couldn't win

Balon d'Or is voted by managers and captains, confident Messi will win. Am over the moon Iniesta won tonight though
