You see how players voted right??? They all voted for their teammates and friends..... Or maybe the fact that cr7 gave alves the captain votes so alves can vote for cr7, lol.... cr7 won the award because he bitched about the award and for some reason they extended the voting right after he put past 4 against sweden in a playoff game...

Marlon brando going to kill you guys now......

Doesn't matter... This guy is better than both of them... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y_C9CsERXnE

Actually, every professional footballer thinks Messi is a better player than cr7.... cr7 so called form is due to him taking 10 shots a game. And in football terms, no their natural ability is at 2 different levels... One knows had to dribble at players, the other excels at useless stepovers. Something, Neymar has in his repetoire sadly... Scoring goals is not being better, if that was the case, lampard would be the greatest cm ever when everyone outside of england and even outside of london disagrees.

Neymar is at 9 goals in 8 games after coming back from his big injury being option number 2-3...... Messi at that age was option 1 and the team revolve around Messi... Messi is still probably always going to be the overall better player, but it wouldnt surprise me if Neymar beat both cr7/messi single year record...

I've been waiting for this game for months..... I doubt Di Maria will be 100 percent, which means they will longball everything tomorow..

Easy. Rojo/evans vs costa. HATTRICK!

Not really. Messi is better finisher, but cr7 has better power, which allows him to take all those long shots from the left and long fks..... But I agree, it shouldnt even be a question who the better player is.... Doesnt really matter because the real ronaldo is better than both of them.

its the opposite. Messi to me is the best player in his generaton, but you should look at the thread in most controversy. I am definitely not a messi fanboy, but Messi is better than cr7

Neymar now has 8goals in 9 games, 0pks.... After coming back from his injury in the world cup.... When neymar beats both messi and cr7 record, I hope the same people that said messi and cr7 in the greatest of all time conversation, says the same argument for neymar since goals>better.

Because bale and cr7 are automatics and they need to fit both cesc and hazard on the team, so they need to drop modric and james.. Anyone can tell you that modric is better.

I counted 8 counters he messed up..... If willian messes up 1-2, this board wants his head.... Cr7 can never be a great of all time primarily because of this. His passing is terrible and he needs 10 shots to score 1-2 goals a game, which is why for portugal he sucks balls because on portugal he can never get as many opportunites as he does for madrid... On redcafe.. He was Barcelona's best defender today. Broke up more Madrid attacks than Pique and Mascherano

to an extent its true.....what your saying... However, that means that players in the next generation should be better than both messi/cr7 as well.

true. However, Modric is no slouch with chances created and his longshot ability is world class... He would also do set pieces...

Actually, I never said Kroos..... I said modric, isco and james... Kroos i dont believe in and Kroos will be the reason why real madrid lose going forward. So, basically the point in the combined 11 thread everyone put hazard as cam, but in reality james/oscar would start over them in a combined 11 for balance purposes... Modric has looked fantastic since carlo became manager... Not one game and Modric will always start over Cesc... At barca, at madrid and at chelsea. Also, if madrid looks fantastic against barcelona, it is relevant to show how their team allowed 0 goals this season? No understand? The possession football they do, allows their goalkeeper more opportunites for clean sheets.... The fact is modric and company took out their midfield.... Which gave them opportunites to counter so many times... Mainly James/Modric.... Rewatch the liverpool game, Modric took out their whole midfield without breakin much sweat...

exactly.. Luis would not start over an inform marcelo. Marcelo inform is the best lb in the world, attacking wise at least. Nor would cesc start over Modric...Cesc improved chelsea tremendously, but Modric would of made chelsea even better.

Oscar can, but James is the politcally correct choice, since this board would tell me how if oscar starts as cam, than hazard should start in the combined 11 instead because he is "better." Realistically, I would choose oscar or james over hazard as cam to provide balance and modric over cesc because modric can handle the press and tactically is probably one of the best players in the world...

Well, i said they didnt allow any goals in and you said la liga opponents suck. So, to counter that, I said those 2 teams put goals past chelsea? You dont understand?

How many counters did cr7 mess up? Like 8. if willian did that, this board would ask for his head.

you should of seen him in his pk in champs league......

and chelsea let burnley score and everton put 3 past them....

Barca allowed 0 goals until this one this season?

tell that to Real Madrid.. James was fantastic today. Winning the ball like Oscar does and moving forward... James is the future of Madrid.

Modric would always start on every team. Today was a prime example why he is the best cm right now. People can talk about cesc assists, but el clasico is a prime example why modric will always be the better cm than Cesc. And James was a beast... Hazard as cam? Nah, ill take James.. Both these guys tactical are fantastic and their work rate along with going forward is amazing... Still think real going to get shitted on in champs league, but thats a different question.

Modric-isco-james were fantastic.... Exactly why neither hazard nor cesc would start over them
