Was surprised to see that Maradona never won a copa America

Win a World Cup you fucking fraud

He was 14/1 in January and I backed him. You got on him quickly at 2/1 I’d say because I’d imagine the odds have definitely shortened since

EVS now

The Ballon D’Or often goes to the standout player for the CL winners. Chelsea didn’t really have one - Kante the closest. Lewandowski the most consistent performer but Bayern went out too early.

Jorginho will surely win the Ballon D’or if Italy win tonight?

Biff_Egan · July 11, 2021, 10:57am

A poundshop Declan Rice.

A lovely moment for the greatest

Fulvio_From_Aughnacloy · July 11, 2021, 1:50pm

Di Maria?

the_man_himself · July 11, 2021, 1:51pm

Messi is the first player to have most goals, most assists, player of the tournament and winner of the tournament at a major international tournament

Fulvio_From_Aughnacloy · July 11, 2021, 1:52pm

Yet Di Maria was the main man once again for Argentina in the big game. Messi is grand when it’s Iran or Nigeria or Bosnia.

Every game is big in tournament football pal…messi had swept the boards

Fulvio_From_Aughnacloy · July 11, 2021, 2:04pm

That’s just pointless guff.

The big games are the ones with trophies riding on them, with places in finals riding on them.

Angel Di Maria has been Argetina’s main man when it has really mattered.

A first tournament win for Argentina since 1993. Only a special generational player like Messi can make that possible.

Fulvio_From_Aughnacloy · July 11, 2021, 2:08pm

Raging because it Di Maria!!!

Ave
Ave
Ave Di Maria

Biff_Egan · July 11, 2021, 2:10pm

He’s been badly let down by his teammates in a few major finals. The likes of Higuain.

ChairmanDan · July 11, 2021, 2:11pm

Messi was chosen as player of the tournament on the 2014 World Cup. He single handedly dragged a very average Argentina team to the final.

Fulvio_From_Aughnacloy · July 11, 2021, 2:12pm

No he didn’t.

He failed to score in 450 minutes of knockout football.

He shat his pants as the likes of Di Maria, Higuian and Mascherano dragged Argentina there.

FlakeAway · July 11, 2021, 2:14pm

Only for him, Messi would have a World Cup & 2 Copa americas.
