It seems that the best striker award always goes to the Capocannoniere. Not sure if a player can get the positional award and the overall MVP award in the same season but looking at previous seasons it hasn't happened. Lukaku seems pretty certain to win the overall MVP.
He will definitely win it although I`d give the MVP to Barella...

Id be surprised if it's not Lukaku actually, unless they try to be cute about it

Makes sense for him to win the MVP for best forward...and he missed a fair few games as well..probably could have 35 plus goals. And imagine if he could take free kicks lol.

He is gone...no way he stays. All the best.

Agree MVP overall to Barella...to think 12 months ago Dybala won this award.

Yeah, he worked in RM's setup with gazillions of quality players, but he's not in his prime anymore and here the club caters to him to such an extent since we don't have the same club stature. That hinders us.

Benzema for sure suffered :)
Yes, I'm sure he's devastated winning 4 CL trophies and being best friends with CR.

That is not Ronaldo's problem. The mentality of the club and players around him needs to change. Chiesa worked beautifully with him because he doesn't care, he just plays football. More guys like that the better.

The biggest mistake for me was that after signing Ronaldo we for some reason hired two coaches that wanted us to morph into a team that presses high. Ronaldo certainly is not the player for that. So if Moggi means playing as a collective without the ball then I agree. On the attacking side I feel the problems lie elsewhere, it would be extremely harsh to blame our most productive attacking player for those problems.

Real Madrid 2014-2018 was a team so stacked that they could pick and choose between prime Isco and prime Bale, depending on the opponent in the Champions League. A team so stacked that prime James Rodriguez, who had 35 goal involvements in 2014/15, was benched indefinitely from 2015-2017 because he wasn’t as good as the other midfielders they had.

Outside of Ronaldo, our best players this season have been Chiesa and Cuadrado. Neither would get a look in that Real Madrid side that won 4 CL in 5 years. This Juventus team is so far away from that Real Madrid team that any comparison is pointless. What worked for Madrid will not necessarily work for Juventus.

Moggi knows football but this is just stating the obvious.

He can and that's why he does. He just can't score them.
