2014 World Cup thread

Mueller or Mascherano for Golden Ball. They've been both superb and very consistent in every game. But knowing life it will probably go to Messi.

James rodriguez should win it.
 
Bitterness is real :)

More real than the fourth place trophy!

I'm betting on Mueller. If it comes down to those two then Mueller will easily take it over Masch, forwards always get more acclaim than defensive midfielders.

That said, if Argentina win, Messi's got more than an outside chance.

I don't know, Mascherano's **** shredding tackle had a lot of headlines. Might not be the kind of publicity you want to be voted best player though ;)
 
But less than FA cup trophy :) and as I've been hearing over the years success of a season is judged on trophies won...

Yeah, but only the trophies people actually care about. :D

Tony P has made you real big-headed these days.

We just re-signed Marouane Chamakh. I'll take on anyone.

'Mascherano kills Dutchman, wins golden ball'

250k-300k Arsenal fans cared enough to attend the parade... less than 100k City fans attended their one for Prem. :D Also same goes for Chelsea's CL parade with less than 100k attending. So Fa Cup > CL & Prem :D

You are welcome :D

Just goes to show how low your standards are nowadays! :)

...for what?! We took him in and gave him a home after you all abandoned him. Our nurture is the reason he's being a boss now.

for Arsene signing Electric Sanchez we didn't need to raid Palace for Chamakh ;) though his hair isn't Arsenal standard anymore...

I'd be surprised if Messi wins the Golden Ball award. Yeah he's scored some excellent goals and done the odd great pass but I've found him to be disappointing-at times looking disinterested. When people compare him to Maradonna I do raise an eyebrow-Msradonna took some games by the scruff of the neck (before taking something else ofc further down the road ;) ) when things weren't going well. Could be the pressure of having to carry the squad aswell. Personally I think he's shattered.

Don't get me wrong-his talent and capabilities are just absolutely world class. But he doesn't deserve the Golden Ball this time round. That should go to Rodriguez. Though.....there's also more than a case for Muller.

I predicted 5-0 to holland. How Silva was not sent off I do not know

Ref bottled it, although just days after the most humiliating defeat in their history, I don't think I would have the balls to send of the captain after 2 mins!
