Greizmann would have had a legit shot at this year's Balon d'Or if he scored the penalty in the Champions League final.

Schweinsteiger, never disappoint with something dumb in a crucial moment. Kos and Boateng have been untouchable.

 

[Xaviesta]

Already love Umtiti. What a player, he would have cost us 50M tomorrow.

 

[Arnau]

Looks legit. Very good on the ball too.

There would be no discussion then... he eliminated Barça and Bayern and is pulling a "Platini" in Euro. If he decides the final too, ballon dor must be for him.

 

[Xaviesta]

Nah. Not even sure he'll make the top3.

 

[ShiftyPowers]

I think he's the leader right now too, but we all know how this shit works.

 

[Arnau]

He wont even make top3. Btw, best two teams are out (Germany and Italy) what a shame.

Not that it was perfect before, but the award has become a joke since they combined it with the FIFA Player of Year.

 

[ShiftyPowers]

Let's just all agree that the Basque team would throttle the Catalonia team.

yeah, this shit happens in tournoments ...
Germany so unlucky

 

[ShiftyPowers]

France is a good team, and they have the best player.

 

[Arnau]

Germany were clearly better than them but this Sport works like this

 

[Sir Didier Drogba]

Deschamps is a very good reactive manager, much better than he is given credit for. Germany had key players missing across the pitch and I'm not surprised they were beaten. It's incredible to me that players from Leicester, West Ham and relegated Newcastle have been key figures in this final-reaching French side. Also the club with second largest number of players to reach semi finals (after Bayern) was crystal palace.

Says a lot about the English League, or the "tactically poor" league. Even championship players dominate on the big stage.

Good luck to the Portugeezers, here!

I'll be shocked if France don't win this. That said, it would be funny if Ronaldo won a major international title while Messi retires from it. Especially if they do it a la Greece.

I want this to happen. But a real shame that CR7 is off injured. You could see the disappointment on his face. He may be an arrogant **** but he has the passion.

Why Quaresma to replace Ronaldo? That's so stupid. Now Poetugal has 2 pure wingers up front. Can't see where the goals will come from. Portugal has no good strikers but a striker would have been more sensible rather than bringing someone to play out of position. And that player ks Quaresma.

The Prem is so good that the best player at the Euro final is in the 2nd division.

Even the referee officiates the EPL. This game is like watching an EPL game.

All the injuries and breaks may have cost Portugal their best player but they helped them slow the game down to a pace they like.
