He deserves it, Lampard can't win it, it's too good for him anyway!

Had Milan won the CL, it would have remained with Shevchenko IMO, but as long as Ronaldinho wins it, it's good for football anyway

 

With his current form, I'm sure he'll just swipe both awards.

 

He deserves to this award , he made a great year and probably he could also make a good World cup, it's his year and for barça it should be a great year ....

 

as Henry is injured then Ronaldinho is the only rightful winner.

 

It's his, no doubt.

Oh and, Gerrard being one of the favourites...uh.

 

Hope he gets it thi time roud:

Why not? He only single-handedly guided his time to a European Cup. He has every right to be there. :thumbsup:

 

It's got Ronaldinho written all over it. :thumbsup:

 

Ronaldinho should and must take it, for what he done so far and what he did in the end of last season, he gave too much for football befor giving to his club or national team.
and he always make fans even not Barca or Brazil fans enjoy watching him doing his skills and move the ball around, and do crazy things.

I'm not against Gerrard or Lampard, both did too much for thier teams, specialy Gerrard, yet they aren't for it.

Will do!

 

Lampard would be worthy as well imo but Ronnie just is the best player in the world and he's probably the single player with the most fans even amongst the top officials.

 

IMO Lampard has been more consistent than Dinho but if he keeps his form Mago will surely take this award

Good points. Lampard in my opinion would absolutely deserve the award for being the more consistant of the two. Ronaldinho is brillant, his second goal against Chelski earlier this year should be among the best 3 goals if not the best this year and his skills are probably superior to anyone's, yet his attitude and working rate in some matches have not been as great at Lampards.
It will probably be a tight decision.

 

The favourite doensn't always win it. If it had been, then Henry would have been twice FWPOY already.

 

He must have been favourite lots of times, because Ronaldinho was the clear favourite when he won it. And that was backed up by the large majority win. The last time, there were 3 guys involved in both of the big awards, and all 3 went home with trophies, so I guess it's all good.

 

Despite some attitude problems I cannot see any threat to Ronnie, especially when Henry has been injured. Lampard ???????? No way (I don't say he's not a good player but he's miles away from the above and also miles behind Zlatan).

Zlatan, who?? The dude, who needs 100 chances a match to score? :howler: He's overrated, he always was.

 

That's the same as Lampard, yet for some reason his fans won't allow you to mention that. He hit more shots than anyone in the ENTIRE PREMIERSHIP (that is a statistical fact by the way) last season, well over 100, and people also ignore the fact that Makalele does the donkey work so that Lampard can shine.

If they are going to give an award to someone from England, it should be Henry LONG before it's Lampard.

 

That's the same as Lampard.....

Directly compared Lampard is the better scorer and way way better in assists, Visa-or-Mastercard. Zlatan was good with the swedish NT, but actually a frustration with Ajax and also nothing special at Juve.
Check Lampard's stats on Eurosport, there's almost no Chelski goal, where he's not involved so or so.

 

what a nice debate ! Other brazilian coming to barça and becoming world clas player, Romario(without Ballon d'Or because at these times he couldn't win it) Ronaldo, Rivaldo, and now Ronaldinho... better Robinho be in barça for the R continuation lol

I think we'll pass on this "R" just like we did with Reinaldo from PSG. :tongue:

Sometimes they just arent worth it.

 

I cant believe the Lampard critisms above, the guy is a linchpin in Chelsea's team, they have great players to fill in for him when hes not there but they could not do the same job with the same effectiveness as Lampard does, he was Chelsea's top goal scorer last season, recovered god knows how many balls, and rarely seems to waste a ball when he has it at his feet, he is a footballing piece of art, great technique, hes a leader and can score all sorts of goals?? why should he not be in the shortlist to win it, im not saying he should win it, because come on, who does touch Ronaldinho in this day and age? But Lampard deserves all the praise he gets, sure ViscaBarcaInter mentioned that Makalele does the donkey work for Chelsea, but can he create goals and score goals? no he cant, can Lampard recover balls and defend? yes

 

Didn't do too much today, did he? p No one is denying his effectiveness, but pure magestic talent is harder to come by than work rate.

 

Lampard does NOT deserve all the praise he gets, away you go with that nonsense. Anyone can watch him and see that he is a limited player. And the FACTS are his goal record wasn't nearly as impressive before Makalele joined. And the wins and positive stats never cover the misplaces passes, or they don't show the work that goes into catching one of his punts upfield. Sure, he's an excellent player, but a guy like Gerrard does everything Lampard does and more without the shield of Makalele and the best defence around behind him, AND he does it with less competent team-mates around him. Again, people look at his good stats (goals, assists), but they don't take into account the tons of misses shots, or the fact that Lampard takes every free-kick and every corner, and only 1 in every 5 or 6 actually turns out ok.

Point being, anyone can be a Lampard with hard work, good training ethic and quality players around you. Not everyone can be a Ronaldinho, and THAT is the kind of player these awards should be aiming at. The true quality, the flair, the unteachable talent, the players that make fans buy tickets to see games are infinitely more important to football than the workhorse midfielders.

Compare : Put Deco in Chelsea's midfield in Lampard's place, does anyone think he would do worse than Lampard? Hell no. Now, imagine Lampard taking Ronaldinho's spot in our team.

Yes, I thought that laugh would be the reaction.
