as far as honorable mentions go I thought Besic from Bosnia looked a really tidy holding midfielder …he’s only 21…

Votes are before the final finishes.
Surprised Neuer didn’t get a mention for the main award. Think Muller and Robben are the front runners though.

Rodriguez
Kroos
Mascherano

Messi has been shit in the knockout stages.
No he was shit against Holland but good in the other two games. And I just checked and you have Di Maria in your team And you’ve picked three lads that didn’t even get to the knockouts
What’s wrong that they didn’t play in the knockout?
Di Maria has been the Argies best player. Messi was shit against Belgium and Switzerland.

Against Switzerland Di Maria was battling it out with Higuain for the honour of being the worst player on the pitch. He got a goal due to Messi laying it on a plate for him. Didn’t see the Belgium game but I doubt Messi was shit, I saw a video of one outstanding pass of his and one outstanding dribble by him
