Sports - Mourinho Accuses FIFA Of Fixing Ballon D'Or Award To Favor Messi
http://www.africaeagle.com/2012/12/sports-mourinho-accuses-fifa-of-fixing.html
Jose Mourinho has claimed the Ballon D'Or award has been fixed by FIFA to ensure that it is won by Lionel Messi.
Once again this year the award is a straight shootout between Barcelona magician Messi and Real Madrid's Cristiano Ronaldo.
Messi's Barca team-mate Andres Iniesta completes the three-man shortlist.
But while Messi has picked up the gong an amazing four times, Ronaldo has only managed it once - something that Mourinho believes is suspicious.
The Special One is used to brushes with authorities but his latest outburst is sure to displease FIFA chief Sepp Blatter.
Asked who was going to win the award, Mourinho said: 'The Ballon d'Or has already been given. When the heads of football speak and make the campaign, there is nothing you can do.'
Mourinho remains defiant in his belief that Ronaldo is the better player of the two.
He once famously insisted that if Messi is the best player on the planet, then Ronaldo is the 'best in the universe'.
'If you are going to give out the Ballon d'Or because a player is the best, give it to Cristiano or Messi,' he said in October.
'But I ask: if the two are on the same level, is it normal that one wins four and the other one? It is not.'

ReplyDeleteEvery body knws that Messi is universe best in terms of team playing, Mourinho shld stop all this beefing, Messi is the best. Iniesta is second best while Ronal is followed.
ReplyDeleteMr. Rotimi, no need to insult Samson even though his comments are rather silly. The fact remains that Messi is a better player than CR7. The statistics don't lie. Messi is the best player in the world, Jose Mourinho must learn to live with that.
ReplyDeleteDespite his dimunitive nature and one-footedness, he still scores and creates more goals than other strikers like CR7, Ibramhovic, Falcao who are physically huge, can head better due to their heigths and two-footed. There should b a standing ovation for this 'Special One' frm the 'self-acclaimed' special one. Mind u, I'm no Barca fan!
ReplyDeleteMESSI, MESSI, MESSI, MESSI... Samson and Jose mourinho can go and DIE for all I care. Messi is the BEST anyday anytime
ReplyDelete@Alex but its true why are you hating...
ReplyDeleteAll said and done Messi is a better player no doubt, but when compared to Cristano who has played in different leagues and has proven himself as a world class everywhere i will give it to him as my favorite...
ReplyDeleteGuys,i ve this question,who won laliga best player and best forward this year voted by players /managers?
ReplyDeleteDo you give a One man league player the best footballer for years?Messi was mercurial truly in the last 2years but what about the last 2 years for his National teams?Ronaldo has conquered in England and now in Spanish Liga and his Portuguese National Team,this record Messi is about making is still in contention,Haba, you people have forgotten that it may be very difficult to give the award to someone else if they still award to Messi,the 4th year in a ROW???most fans are only fanatical about their Team players not being
ReplyDeleteobjective
Mourinho will continue crying like a Hungry Dog till he gets tired of talking shit.He should Worship King Messi So that others will worship him.Am a ManUnited fan,so there is nothing difficult to admit that Leonel Messi is the best in the Planet.
