Essential The Official Football (Soccer) Thread - RIP Diogo Jota

Lewandowski has been truly robbed

He should have at least got the 2020 one retrospectively

No reason why it was cancelled while games were still going on

 

[Roid Jones]

Jorginho in the top 3 the beautiful game might truly be in the mud

Idk why they couldn't give Lewandowski last year's award this year?

@African_brehda

deserves it tbh, can’t dress like that for such an occasion

Carragher has never claimed to be better than Ferdinand (he readily admits he didn't play for England more because Rio and Terry were both miles better than he was).

So why shouldn't Carragher have a football opinion? He's been in the game all his life, played at the highest level, won a European Cup and competed for a league title (08/09). So what's he supposed to do? Walk off the set when they talk about the title race?

Smh at old Man Utd players trying to police other people. Carragher is a way better pundit for what its worth.

What I said wasn't to say he shouldn't have a point. I think he tries to discredit Rio's achievements and ability as a footballer with that SAF comment and saying he didn't win anything after he left United. It was a disingenuous argument. Does he honestly think Rio only won what he did because he had Sir Alex as a manager? What was Rio supposed to win with QPR at 34 years old? That and the Chelsea point discredits his entire tweet.

He's doing what Souness does. Anything attached to Ronaldo's name will do numbers.

Yep. Bd’or got exposed this year. They literally spammed copa until Messi won it. Lewa deserved it

 

[Low End Derrick]

I don't really care about individual awards like that, but if Jorginho finishing 3rd in the Ballon d'Or is making non Chelsea/non-Italy fans tight, them I'm all for it.

How the fukk does Mason Mount finish higher in the Ballon D'or voting than Bruno, Dias, Kane and Foden?

Might have something to do with it?

 

[BelieveBeOK]

Might have something to do with it?

Of course it does but that logic has always been BS to me.

Does winning the CL make Werner a top 10 striker, given he played in most of the games?

 

[ThrobbingHood]

Duck mouth is a horrible pundit but mr spit in your face doesn’t have a leg to stand on.

Scored in the quarters semis and assisted the winner in the final. Iirc he was like motm in one of the games vs Atletico. He turned up in the CL.

Mount showed up in the CL run, Werner did not.

 

[Kunty McPhuck]

This Carra vs Rio thing. All it is is a Liverpool vs United contest by pundits. After all those 2 have the most ex players working as pundits as it is.

 

[BobbyBooshay]

They should give a retrospective award, 2020 for Lewandowski. Everyone knows he was the best that year. I can't see why they dont do it

I see they created some new award "striker of the year" lol

Basically a "sorry about last year award Robert"

 

[EA]

I'm a fan of Messi but there's no way he should have even won it this year. For the calendar year of 2021, Lewandoski has still been the best player in the world.

Magaluf back too

Arsenal win 3-0
