Men’s shortlists for FIFA Ballon d’Or 2013 revealed

[Luftstalag14]

I saw this somewhere:

2013:
Games played Games started Goals scored Assists

Robben 33 23 16 17
Ribery 34 30 13 15

 

[Ryu Hayabusa]

Personally, I would give it to Ribery. He deserves it.
But truthfully, purely from an individual skill point of view, there is no way anybody else but Messi should win it.

@Luftstalag: If we are talking stats, have a look at Müller.
12/13 ->
Bundesliga Games 28 Goals 13 Assists 13
Champions League Games 13 Goals 8 Assists 2

Not too shabby, eh?

 

[raskolnikov]

I would give it to Lahm if Messi doesnt win.

 

[Ryu Hayabusa]

btw, who is your favorite to winthe best manager award?
I would go Heynckes all the way, especially since it was the last season of his career. Purely hype-wise Klopp might have a shot as well.
Anybody else would be a joke, I think.

 

[xaviniestas]

Ofcourse it will be Jupp. The list is a joke though, Mourinho?? Wenger?? Lmao.

 

[Ryu Hayabusa]

Well, why? Mourinho only admitted the last season to have been his worst ever. Totally deserved nomination ofc

It has to be Heynckes.

 

[S2K1985]

Jupp must win it. Everything else would be a disgrace

 

[Die Bayern]

WIthout doubt has to be Jupp. No one else should even be in with a chance. I'm also baffled by some of the nominees in the list but what can we do..

 

[Blancone]

Only one Dortmund player? 5 Premier league players? Really?

So well imo a couple of names shouldn´t be on this Ballon D`or-list. Personally I would take out Hazard, Pirlo, Suarez, Toure (just in there, so there is at least one African player) and Xavi. My replacements would be Reus, Gündogan, Mandzukic, Vidal and Javi Martinez.

 

[Ghost]

Leo won't win it.

 

[suckabov]

He will. The only question is: Can his suit be any weirder than last year?

 

[barca1899]

Considering the fact that he's friends with Alves, yes it can

 

[Luftstalag14]

Personally, I would give it to Ribery. He deserves it.

Of course not. Exactly my point. Ribery doesn't really stand out. Winning the treble was a TEAMgeist effort.

Heynckes. But Diego Simeone not even making the list while someone like Mourinho does make this list just ridiculous! Mind blowing.
