Essential The Official Football (Soccer) Thread - The Slotification of Liverpool is nearly complete

Man, and speaking of defenders, it's crazy to me how guys like Puyol and Maldini never won a Ballon D'or.

They need to spilt this award.

Forward Ballon Dor

Midfield Ballon Dor

Defence Ballon Dor

Goalkeeper Ballon Dor

You can’t compare forwards to midfielders to defender to keepers.

What does a keeper need to do win this award? What does a left back need to do to win this award? Has a defensive midfielder won this award yet?

Messi collecting balon dor like Dragonballs and he only needs one More

Nor should they.

Very good players, but neither controlled or dominated games.

For as good as Biscuits is/was, reality is, he was like the 7/8 most important player on them Barca teams.

MO, Xavi, Iniesta, Etoo, Dani, Valdes, Puyol.

Valdes

Valdes

Apart from Van der Sar, what keepers played with their feet before Valdes?

 

[mr.africa]

the biggest recent snub for me was ribery (not debatable)
also henry should've gotten one (this one is debatable)

Valdes has always been trash to me breh, but I was watching him when I was a child and didn't know much about ball so idk
I recently saw some clean sheet record of his that had me because I've always known him to be trash

Valdes footballing skills were vital to how Barca wanted to play from the back, also the fact that he was a sweeper/keeper when teams countered, allowed Barca to play with the high line. You think Barca would of been able to do that with Joe Hart or Roy Carroll in goal? There is a reason why Pep bushed Joe Hart for Claudio Bravo and it wasnt because of shot stopping abilities either, which Hart is far more superior at.

I've never heard of it before, but on one of Expressions videos from the other day. Trophy Mourinho so simple and so easy.

The biggest Ballon d'Or snub was when World Wide Wes who won the treble and carried Holland to the world cup final, didn't even make top 3.

Tbh dude was only good for few months i.e. he was rubbish for the most of the latter half of 2010.

Messi was definitely that years best player, dude was out here getting compared to maradona and pele.

using british goalies as standard for good goalkeeping

Valdes was "Norris Cole on the Heat" status
