redshirt Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 i think the ballon d'or will go to either cristiano ronaldo or leo messi, with iker casillas an outside shot.I reckon Ronaldo pretty much has it in the bag. Over 20 goals last season, Winning the double with United.... Quote Link to comment

dj_flip03 Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 Yo DJ how's it going buddy? Im doin great. Been busy at work and other stuff. But of course, still not forgetting THE BEAUTIFUL GAME! Ok. I guess I'll have to agree, it should be C.Ronaldo due to his contribution to ManU's double last season. Quote Link to comment

_eRon_ Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 i think cristiano ronaldo will win ballon d'or hands down, scoring 42 goals last season & helping manutd win the double last season is a great achievement .. watched the liverpool-wigan game highlight, what a howler by agger but he redeemed himself later on..amr zaki is still the top goal scorer of the EPL; steve bruce has got himself one great striker; his bicycle kick goal was sublime Quote Link to comment

_eRon_ Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 that's for sure..a striker of that quality will surely be signed by another team; it's up to him whether he stays with wigan i hope manutd beat celtic convincing tonight & i hope rooney scores again Quote Link to comment
damaso Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 yeah man utd won convincingly. i must say that berbatov is such a classy forward. he reminds me of bergkamp: intelligent and always composed. juventus beat real madrid 2-1 in the match up of the day. i'm hoping liverpool and barca stay perfect tomorrow.

duchessXI Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 Former Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho has branded Blues striker Didier Drogba ''a diver''. Drogba has often been criticised for going to ground too easily but was vigorously defended by Mourinho during his time in charge at Stamford Bridge. Now, just over a year after leaving Chelsea, Mourinho has turned on the 30-year-old while also hitting out at Cristiano Ronaldo, Fernando Torres and Robin van Persie for the same thing. Mourinho told feelfootball.com: ''I am no longer Chelsea coach, and I do not have to defend them any more, but I think it is correct if I say Drogba is a diver. ''Drogba, Ronaldo, Torres and Van Persie are the divers. Who dives more? Who has won more penalties in recent years? But English football is the one that criticises the divers the most.'' Mourinho claims he is against diving but encourages his players to go to ground if they are fouled. He added: ''I hate diving, but I'm not happy if a player is kicked by somebody in the box and he tries to remain standing. ''It's very, very rare a referee gives a decision if the player doesn't go down so I tell players not to be naive, but to be fair.'' IS MOURINHO HIGH OR WHAT? Quote Link to comment
