fred u still haven't analysed my hypothetical situation

Hmmm I think that site i downloaded it from doesn't host the files anymore, cos they were there months ago. It'd probably just be easier for me to send it to you on a CD or something dude :D

You said that the World Player is judged more on NT performances, and that would mean Del Piero would get the award. Kaka would get the European Player award.

Fred, read my post again. I wrote it in reply to yours. According to your system, the situation i described is logical, but do u really agree with it?

Okay, so what if say, Kaka single-handly wins the scudetto for Milan this season, scoring 50 goals. He can't participate in the European Championships, so his national team achievements are close to zero. On the other hand, say Del Piero scores a hat-trick in every match in Portugal, and...

That's not really logical to me. Sure, maybe they should give the two awards to different players just for the sake of keeping the awards interesting.. but i don't really see the difference. I live in a suburb in Sydney. If I was the the best footballer in Sydney, wouldn't that make me the...

:LOL: my point exactly freddy boy. football experts indeed :sigh:

Actually there were some pretty questionable inclusions and exclusions from the Ballon d'Or votes. Ummm aren't Henry, Nedved and Zidane from Europe too?

Fifa, France football and UEFA would probably put David Beckham first on any dream team sheet, as well as Figo, Zidane and Roberto Carlos. Regardless of their performance in the past few seasons. Awards and dream team things count for nothing. When they give out World Player awards and whatnot...

:LOL: People who vote for Fifa awards are football experts :howler: People who nominated Ronaldo and Zidane and excluded Nedved for the World Player of the Year award are football experts. People behind the ranking system that puts Mexico above England, and the United States above Germany...

This season, in 17 games Roberto Carlos has scored two goals from 31 shots on target. That's shots on target, meaning shots that would have gone in but the keeper saved. Now try to tell me that Roberto Carlos gets more shots on target than off target. Surely he's taken plenty more shots that...

So you've never seen him take an over-ambitious shot when there's an open player staring him in the face?

Actually you're right, R. Carlos is actually kind of a nice guy, but by the way he plays, it's sort of evident that he thinks he's the best. Now i don't mind confidence here and there, but trying to do everything yourself when it's not necessary gets on my nerves.

Actually, Zambro outplayed and outclassed Roberto Carlos in the CL semi-final last season. Zambro's played in 18 games this season and has 7 assists, while Bobby Carlos has played 17, with 3 assists, so you can't say that Carlos is better at assisting overall. Zambro's crosses are much...
