Your arguments for Messi and Ronaldo (which were both deserving candidates) revolved around goals.



And creating goals, and dribbles completed, and fouls drawn, and trophies won... Again, you obviously aren't even reading the posts.

I'm not saying you are wrong because obviously it had to have some impact but surely you agree that this is a terrible way to decide individual awards. Especially in soccer.

Is this the point of your argument? To try and provoke a "troll" regurgitation? You wonder why nobody takes you seriously..


Absolutely not, like I said I am genuinely shocked.

And coming off his best season ever.

I am saying something that 99% of the people in the world would agree with. I am not the one trying to be argumentative here.

If I was trying to be different I wouldn't be beating the Messi and Ronaldo drum. That's pretty much the exact opposite of being different.

You sure?

I'm actually glad this thread happened. I almost made a post a couple of weeks back when the troll stuff was really out of hand about my theory that I could post that Messi was the best player in the world and somehow be called a troll for it. Now I have proof.



Seems like it to me.

Not even close, you're called a troll because of statements like your elitist argument earlier in the thread, which no one ever said or used or even implied yet you bring it up trying to play some sort of card to discredit the people you're arguing against/get us riled up. Which is the definition of a troll.

99% of this board doesn't agree with you.

But, let me guess, it's because we're all elitist that don't like you and have conspired to disagree with everything you say...

I can't wait until this gets turned into "You hate me because I'm a Chelsea fan".

I thought it was too ridiculous to even post which is why I didn't, turns out I was wrong.

It's honestly the only possible explanation to try and make the argument Iniesta had a better season than the other two guys because it makes you seem smarter than everybody else to go against the obvious. It gives you a chance to throw out the "people just don't understand" which was brought up in this thread. There is no reason to continue to say "soccer is more than just goals". Of course it is and I'm pretty sure everyone here knows that. But when you are talking about attacking players and one guy has 5x more goals, creates more goals, dribbles, fouls drawn etc... it makes it pretty hard to make a good argument for the other guy.

I don't even believe that. You know good and well Messi and Ronaldo were/are the two best players in Europe.

I agree.

I think Iniesta, based on his consistent performances at Barca and for Spain, had an equal chance at the trophy.

That's all I'm saying.

Where's your key passes, passes completed, possession lost stats at?

You said "I'm pretty see everyone here knows its not just goals, but the guys who should have won had 5x more goals"

frick you Savage. People hate you because you are full of the suck. The fact you like Chelsea has nothing to do with it.
