There is no problem with Messi winning the golden ball imo.
All of the pressure on him and takes his team to the final.
Aguero and co didn't show up like everyone hoped and they still went far.
Their early games in the tournament mainly the first 4, everyone bunkered and his magic came through for them and brought him 4 motm rewards.. Argentina could have easily drew Bosina, Iran, Nigeria without him and who knows what would of happened vs Switzerland.
I don't understand the hate on Messi it's almost unbearable at times.
Guy is the greatest player of this generation with or without a world cup.
But the result yesterday holds him back on the likes of Pele and Maradona.
Zidane won the Golden Ball in 2006 scoring 3 goals (2 were pens) and even got sent off in the final.
No complaints there from anyone.
The Messi hate is way to strong.
If anyone else deserved it, it would be James Rodriguez for Colombia.
No falcao and still made that great run in the tournament and scored 6 goals.
