Lionel Messi Wins His 7th BEST FIFA Men’s Player Award
Messi, the greatest of all time. Competed with that one guy in Saudi Arabia, competed with Lewandowski and now is competing with Mbappe. Simply GOAT things.
it’s kind of sad because i dont think messi truly knows just how many people are rooting for him everystep of the way.😠like its not just argentina but a good portion of the whole world. regardless he’s still polite and humble, the greatest of all time!
Lionel Messi picked Neymar ahead of Kylian Mbappe with his vote for the FIFA Best Award on Monday night.
The Argentine added another individual accolade to his cabinet as he scooped the award following his country’s triumph at the World Cup in December last year. He and his fellow Paris Saint-Germain forwards were all nominated for the award having each excelled over the past 12 months.
Mbappe, who was narrowly pipped by Messi in Qatar, again played second fiddle to the 35-year-old as he came second. Karim Benzema, the Ballon d’Or winner, was third. Neymar wasn’t in the top three, but would’ve been first had Messi been the man deciding.
Penaldians should keep the same energy because In 2018, Modric won Fifa best because of the world cup, Courtois Won fifa best because of the world cup, and Deschamps won Fifa best because of the world cup. Scaloni won THE WORLD CUP, and the Finalisma and had a long streak winning record only losing 1 game last year. He deserved it and with messi I don’t even got to explain myself. G.O.A.T
Argentina and Paris St-Germain forward Lionel Messi has been named men’s player of the year at the 2022 Best Fifa Awards.
The 35-year-old beat French forwards Kylian Mbappe and Karim Benzema to the prize.
Lionel Messi Wins His 7th BEST FIFA Men’s Player Award?
Messi captained Argentina to World Cup glory in Qatar, and scored 27 goals in 49 games for club and country in 2021-22.
Barcelona’s Alexia Putellas was named women’s player of the year.
Messi, who won the award for a second time, said: “It’s amazing. It’s been a tremendous year and it’s an honour for me to be here and win this award. Without my team-mates I wouldn’t be here.
“I achieved the dream I had been hoping for for so long. Very few people can achieve that and I have been lucky to do so.”
At the ceremony in Paris, Lionel Scaloni,who led Argentina to their third World Cup title, was named men’s coach of the year.
Scaloni beat Pep Guardiola – who guided Manchester City to a sixth Premier League title – and Real Madrid’s Champions League-winning boss Carlo Ancelotti to the honour.
England manager Sarina Wiegman was named women’s coach of the year after leading the Lionesses to European Championship glory on home soil last year, the team’s first major trophy.
Aston Villa and Argentina’s Emiliano Martinez was recognised as the best men’s goalkeeper, while England’s Mary Earps won the women’s award.
There has long been a debate between Neymar and Mbappe, who have shared the same pitch since they first teamed up in Paris in 2017. The Brazilian is seven years his team-mate’s senior and made the move to the Parc des Princes from Barcelona, where he played with Messi.
The two South Americans share a good relationship – Neymar reportedly offered to vacate the No 10 shirt at PSG when Messi joined, only for the Argentine to decline his kind proposal.
The thing i like most about this is not messi but Mbappe coming from beef with Messi to acknowledgement & endearing. He accepts he still have much to learn from him and can have potential to grow even past messi and ronaldo.
Happy for Messi. It’s just sad that he had to accept the award from a pathetic figure of a mafia-type organization. We humans will never survive. Since we always pander to the sick and sociopathic “leaders”.

There is NO REASON for Gareth Southgate to be linked with the Manchester United job
Gareth Southgate is the only person in the Universe who can turn Manchester United into Middlesbrough within no time
The English media is trying all their best to push Southgate to united, but he is championship level manager at best
The England national team is waay better than this Manu squad, and he has had 0 success ( reaching semis ain’t success). So what exactly are people expecting if he becomes Manu boss
Absolutely no way! Why would Man U hire Southgate? That would be the worse decision in the history of the game.
ETH outwitted Klopp last weekend in one of the best and most dramatic FA cup clashes in years and I’m sorry but Southgate would not have won that game and ETH has had to deal with Ronaldo, Sancho, Greenwood and so on, he deserves more time

I have been saying this for weeks now. If United were under any other manager especially Southgate, they would be fighting for relegation right now. The problem at United is not Ten Hag but the players.
People keep saying that Ten Hag’s style of football at United is not attractive and no identity but there is so much that a manager can do if the players themselves are not good enough or not putting enough effort. Ten Hag’s Ajax were playing attractive football and he managed to get them to the SF of the CL.
Without him, look at Ajax now. And the media keep pushing their agenda to get Ten Hag sack and replace him with a much worse manager like Southgate. If Ten Hag is managing England right now, with the players they have, we won’t see such a passive football like we saw yesterday vs Brazil. Ask Liverpool fans, would they replace Klopp with Southgate? I rest my case.
- Ten Hag Says Man United Are on Track
- Liverpool blame themselves for FA Cup loss to Man United
- Man United searching for Erik ten Hag replacement
Liverpool only have themselves to blame for loss to Manchester United. Had to find a way to squeeze in the random Bruno slag off in between. Dude was dead on his feet at full time, and had to slot in to center back for the last 30 minutes.
SportsFila reflect on Manchester United’s 4-3 win over Liverpool in the FA Cup Quarterfinals and look ahead to the semifinals where Erik ten Hag’s side will take on Coventry.
How come everybody seems to have forgotten that 2 of LFC’s goals were pure luck?
More shots, same shots on goal, higher goal expectancy. What is this narrative that Liverpool should have put this game away, if anything we should’ve put this game away! They had a good 20, 25 minute stint where they kept the ball in the second half, but did nothing with it, we deservedly won this game.

For Liverpool fans: don’t say that we lost to Manchester United because Jota Trent Alisson and jones didn’t play. We have to stop doing that every time a team loses a big game it’s very stupid because had you won, you wouldn’t be saying that. Don’t forget that when y’all drew 0-0 to them at home Trent Alisson and Jones started. Keep in mind how well they’ve been playing despite having lots of injuries they almost beat Manchester City’s full strength squad last week.
Also, you lose to Manchester United, 2 fringe players for them decided the game for them, Liverpool didn’t play well and a loss is a loss you have to accept it otherwise you’re a sole loser and are unwilling to take it.
It’s interesting how nothing much is said about the mistakes made by Liverpool, but all criticism is piled on Bruno; how supposedly poor he was.
Ten Hag claims United is moving in the right direction 👀 WHAT DIRECTION IS THAT?!
Every time he speaks after a dismal performance after the match I always sit there saying to myself “What on Earth are you talking about”.
The media trying so hard to get ETH sacked…..when liverpool had bad injuries with VVD out, y’all didnt have the same energy
Most fans want ETH out because of his poor tactics and substitutions. I also felt he should be braver to drop non-performing players irrespective of names, and even play academy players if he has to.
Now I’m ETH in because I realise from Rooney’s and Ole’s recent interviews that the mentality of these players are incredibly low and it’s no longer just speculation that the players can’t cope on this stage.
I can understand ETH saying positive things and coming off as “crazy” but if you have players who are weak minded and aren’t willing to fight, you can’t be tough cos they’ll cave and where does that leave you for the rest of the season?! Jason Sancho case in point. I rather come across as insane to the media but hope that I’m lifting the team enough to get a string of performances to save my job and give the fans at least something to cheer about until I can have a summer clear out.
Keane is a freaking legend but that approach with these weak players will kill them and ETH would lose the dressing room.
This man keeps dropping off bombs on and off the field..A gift that keeps on giving..Most delulu man on this green earth
What a GIFT! Hand him a 15 years contract and 5 years add ons
The problem for Utd in recruiting an elite manager in the Summer is that Liverpool, Bayern and Barca will also be looking for new managers.
From the moment I heard “A new era begins. .” from ETH. I knew it was the joke of the century. He has the guts to say it while Klopp/Guardiola are competing against each other by 1 point in the Primer league he acted like he can compete with them ro
