Yeah Messi should win it but here's the list anyway: Sergio Agüero (Argentina), Xabi Alonso (Spain),Mario Balotelli (Italy), Karim Benzema (France), Gianluigi Buffon (Italy), Sergio Busquets (Spain), Iker Casillas (Spain), Cristiano Ronaldo (Portugal), Didier Drogba (Côte d’Ivoire), Radamel Falcao (Colombia), Zlatan Ibrahimović (Sweden), Andrés Iniesta (Spain), Lionel Messi (Argentina), Manuel Neuer (Germany), Neymar (Brazil), Mesut Özil (Germany), Gerard Piqué (Spain), Andrea Pirlo (Italy), Sergio Ramos (Spain), Wayne Rooney (England), Yaya Touré (Côte d’Ivoire), Robin van Persie (Netherlands), Xavi (Spain). Now I don't follow soccer that much, but seriously Balotelli? He's the fourth best striker at his club... someone like Kompany would have been a much better bet I would have thought? And that's just from his own club...
Balotelli isn't the fourth best striker at his club... He still shouldn't be on this though. Neymar's inclusion is also a joke. As is Drogba's. Joe Hart surely deserves a place? And Kompany.
Tevez and Aguero definitely better than him. Has more natural talent than Dzeko but reckon Dzeko is the more reliable. Yeah I lold at Drogba's inclusion. Definitely reckon Kompany should have got a go, just two defenders from what I can see?
How Neymar and Drogba make the cut and people like Lahm, Schweinsteiger, Kompany, Ribery and Chiellini miss out is beyond me.
Özil made the list eh? Mourinho will probably still criticise him for not being a good enough player.
The difference is Messi and Ronaldo were at Barcelona & United respectively. And, Neymar's been used almost solely as a striker for the past three seasons. Messi & Ronaldo were both wingers at that point in their careers.
I'm not trying to say that Neymar's a better player or anything. Just saw it and thought it was interesting. Obviously it's pretty flawed though.
