there is absolutely no way Ronaldo or Messi where better than Drogba last season.
Come on... they were about the same. Drogba was amazing but so were Ronaldo and Messi. Maybe the voters appreciate Ronaldo and Messi more because they are more technically gifted. They play more of an overall game than Drogba and are probably more fun to watch. Don't get me wrong, Drogba was sensational with his finishing and strength. The gap between 1st and 2nd was probably tiny. The same goes for the gaps between 2nd and 3rd, and so on.
Honest;y thats laughable where you even watching Drogba last year? he was on something else. A more of an overall game and more gifted? Drogba was defensively, in the air, strength, finishing, holding the ball and being a better team player last year.
Chelsea v Barcelona was all down to Drogba where was Messi. Chelsea won more trophies last season than United And he scored far more goals. Please don't try to justify it. The man was robbed for what ever reason.
Well, let's see:
Drogba scored 20 goals that season in the league.
Drogba scored 6 goals that season in the UCL
Drogba's total is 26 in that respect. As an out and out striker.
Ronaldo had 17 goals that season in the league.
Ronaldo had 3 goals that season in the UCL
Ronaldo totals 20 goals. As a Wide Player :down:
Ruud van Nistelrooy had 25 goals that season in his league.
Ruud van Nistelrooy had 6 goals in the UCL that season.
Ruud van Nistelrooy totals 31 goals. As an out and out striker.
Ruud deserved the award!?!
As far as trophies are concerned, that is a team effort. What one player wins a trophey? Shit, I guess since Tottenham has more trophies than Liverpool this year, Robbie Keane is better than Fernando Torres.
