Best player of CL group stages : Messi, How do you feel Madridistas ? Biased ? or Buthurt ?

The truth is always in front of people, but some just choose to avoid it.

I just feel Atletico will go far this year, i would love to see an Atletico-Chelsea revenge with equilibrate forces this year, or Atletico-Bayern...
If Barça defeat City, i would love to draw Chelsea and welcome Mourinho at Camp Nou :) ( If they defeat PSG ).

@Tiki

When your little runt leads you to the 2014-15 Champions League title, then come talk to us. :)

You try to start a fight on every thread. It's pathetic, really. I feel @Lodatz's pain now.

Ribery won CL, he still didnt win it. And last year you were backing CR7 for consistence considering Messi was injured.
So this year is about achievements ? when you claim Ronaldo was the best the whole year you should at least have an argument.

Wow, this surprised me probably the most, great post mate!

@Tiki_taka its about individual performance most of all, but collective titles also come into play, in 2013, Ribery won more collective titles than Ronaldo, but Ronaldo's individual performances simply out weighted Ribery's titles, since it was Bayern who won them, as a team, not him alone. This year, Ronaldo was the best in both aspects, both individually and collectively, so I really don't see your point here.

@tiki

This is all started with Messi . Messi favoritism and him winning one year for individual then for collective when others deserved it more . This bs award was ruined ever since and now UEFA and FIFA , themselves get confused wether to give award for individual performance or collective . Idiots .
