Three men “fight” today for the Golden Ball most talked about in recent years. Xavi Hernandez, Andres Iniesta and Lionel Messi are looking forward to the large verdict.
Gone are other names like Wesley Sneijder Dutch, Portuguese Cristiano Ronaldo and the Uruguayan Diego Forlan.
Xavi, Iniesta and Messi, proud Catalans have reached the final. It will be interesting to see who is chosen.

The act of throwing a car almost just could not have been the determining factor, but Forlan (Atletico leading UEFA and Uruguay to fourth in the world) should have been alternated.

All we wanted to see in 2010 the world wide Messi and more that some media are bent on selling the contrary, the crack did not appear. Do not score a goal and did not come to the rescue of his team when he was beaten by Germany and even their achievements with the club (“just” a league) are much poorer than previous seasons.

Even Casillas is key to closing the prison at Cardozo in the second round and hand in hand to Robben in the final deserved a better fate.

I think Xavi Iniesta had a better World. However, the manchego was decisive. His goal gave the title to Spain and that has to weigh.

In summary: For quality Messi, Xavi year, by a preponderance Iniesta and justice should be a draw.

“I know nothing. Another summer there are so many rumors and not having any concrete offer ends, so I know it’s the same that take in the newspapers. Nobody has come up with an offer, so in no time I was outside the club, “he began the formidable eastern front. Read the rest of this entry »
