@FootbalGalaxy I think the 'closest' logical argument I can give you is that Neymar came 11th in 2011 whilst playing outside of a T5 league. It's definitely not the same as winning it, but he was that ridiculously good that it didn't matter he was playing in Brazil.
@MihirRMA Only reason that Tottenham game wasn’t also peak is because he was returning from an injury if I remember correctly, apart from that this campaign is the greatest single-man carry job ever
I haven't seen anything like this. This is scandalous. People criticizing USA for poor organization, but FRANCE should be criticized more, they had years to prepare for this competition.
The game ended more than one hour ago and they couldn't check the video referee propertly, while players were being held in the locker room for this time.
Di Maria is such an important team player. Best player on the pitch when Messi isn't there and uses Messi's presence better than most in the Argentina squad in terms of attacking output.
Genuinely a top 5 of all time from Argentina imo.
@StressedRMAfan @Mo01198 @MCFC___BH Here's his original tweet, the start literally says he's only speaking on behalf of the Austrian NT.
Like I said, everything written just means its dependant on the Captain.

Regarding FIFA The Best Award:
The Austrian national team vote for this award as a team, not me alone. Everyone in the team council is able to vote and that's how it's decided.
Everyone knows, especially Karim, how much I admire him and his performances
@StressedRMAfan @Mo01198 @MCFC___BH The ‘one per team’ would imply it’s designed to be only for the Captain, or it wouldn’t make sense as to why the Coach has an individual vote.
Also one of the journalist voters from England stated on Sky that it is their own votes but it’s apart of an overall jury
@StressedRMAfan @Mo01198 @MCFC___BH I’m assuming people think it’s a NT council/group decision based on Alaba’s statement last year.
Read the how voting works section here, it states the actual vote comes from current NT coaches/captains

@laligafrauds Almost like it’s a rule where if an attacker plays the ball with his hand in anyway it’s ruled off and with defenders their body position is considered
@Lets_Go_Edition@lewis33804580@DVG360_orginal @ForeverBlue_07 @StokeyyG2 So the most important player in their UCL run is the player who scored 5 goals in the group stage, 5 goals in the RO16, 2 goals in the quarters?
City are the best team but the best team doesn't always have the best player in it.
@ExJohnHonestyy I think the reason you're getting a lot of heat for this is because Messi has changed what it means to be the best to a lot of people (myself included).
Currently I think Mbappe is the bigger impact player but Messi is still the best playmaker and for me it's hard to judge.
