real mafia
>Piqué
>Casillas

>>63802304
Nice meme list Iñaki
>>63802304
>No Bravo
Amazing
>>63802364
>Douglas Costa (Brazil/Bayern Munich)
>a good 4 months is enough to get you a nomination for TOTY
>>63802304
FIFA don't even try to hide their overhyped spic player bias anymore, some of the players on this list make the whole thing a fucking mockery
>>63802462
no, but playing for one of FIFA's batty boy teams is
>>63802462
>a shit 3 or 4 years is enough for half of the list
>>63802476
this butthurt
only 9 epl players included
Le most exciting league in the world
>>63802364
Rooney in and no Harry Kane? Muh meme players.
>>63802304
who cares the World XI 2015 will be 90% Barcelona anyway
>>63802656
>every spanish poster goes on about EPL all the time
>literally always posting the trophy comparison image
>UK flags actually talk about football rather than having to shout about how their league is better
sounds a lot like butthurt tbqh
>>63802364
>bale

>costa
>tsuu
>memeovic
>messhit

>tevez
literally a god awful list. whoever was responsible should literally and figuratively jump out a fucking window
>>63802304
>Casillas
>Ivanovic
>Terry
>Pirlo
>Rooney
David Luiz is THE meme player. Prove me wrong
Guys, remember when Florentino Perez invented ad hoc MVP award specifically for Cristiano Ronaldo in a season where he wasn't in competition for any regular award?
>>63802364
9/15 deserve to be there
>>63802783
All the awards are made up, they're as worthless as each other.
>>63802723
butthurt? why?
la liga have 25 players included
bundesliga have 13 players included
serie a have 11 players included
epl have only 9 players included
>>63802859
22 of those La Liga players are made up of Real Madrid and Barcelona
a good chunk of those are overrated just for being there
Don't pretend there isn't a clear bias towards those teams.
>>63802859
La Liga would have 25 players even if the teams were shit in the CL.
Remember there were 6 players from Real/Barca for 2013 the year they were both embarrassed by the bundes.
World XI has no prestige, it's voted for by 11 year paki FUT players.
>>63802995
6 players actually IN the world 11 that is, not just nominated.
>>63802796
This.
>Casillas
>>63802304
>no Bravo
>Rooney
>Pirlo
>Casillas
I'm surprised Xavi's not in there too
Post your 55-player shortlist lads
>>63803697
Xavi was a player Barcelona subbed in to control the games once they were in the lead. No fucking way he deserves to be there.
>>63803710
That was my point dipshit. These players are in on past reputation alone.
>>63802859
>Serie A have 11 players included
Baiting this hard
>>63802995
Or in 2012 when Chelsea won the CL and the TOTY was 11 La Liga players.
>Ivanoshit
>Terry
>Hazard
Is there a Chelshit quota or something?
>>63803707
Vardy, Vardy, Vardy, Vardy, Vardy, Vardy, Vardy, Vardy, Vardy, Vardy, Vardy, Vardy, Vardy, Vardy, Vardy, Vardy, Vardy, Vardy, Vardy, Vardy, Vardy, Vardy, Vardy, Vardy, Vardy, Vardy, Vardy, Vardy, Vardy, Vardy, Vardy, Vardy, Vardy, Vardy, Vardy, Vardy, Vardy, Vardy, Vardy, Vardy, Vardy, Vardy, Vardy, Vardy, Vardy, Vardy, Vardy, Vardy, Vardy, Vardy, Vardy, Vardy, Vardy, Vardy, Vardy.
>>63802723
spics never actually discuss football, just shitpost and spam the same stale images all day long
it's why a la liga general has always failed to take off, and their match threads are dead as fuck other than the real mad/barca ones which are filled with foreign bandwagoners and anime shitters
>>63803861
Well you do realize that Spain won the Euros in the same year, right?
TOTY will be
Neuer
Alves - Pique - Ramos/Chiellini/Thiago Silva - Alba
Iniesta - Busquets - Pogba
Messi - Suarez - Ronaldo
If there is some justice in the world, Ronaldo won't be in there.
>>63803951
Of course, and that merits a few players of course, but it shouldn't merit 6.
Particularly when you consider Germany had 3 players in it for winning the WC.
>>63802304
>World XI 2015
Literally just Barcelona with Neuer instead of Bravo.
>Rooney
What the fuck dude
>>63803991
>Pogba
When will this meme die, he wasn't even that good during Juves CL run
>>63804480
That's why he'll be in TOTY.
>Casillas
>David Luiz
>John Terry
>Busquets
>Hazard
>Rooney
>>63804551
>many fails in the list
>Choose only 6
>Somehow greentext Busquets
Because you don't see he's name on every Scoresheet doesn't mean he not one if not the best holding mid in the game.
He isn't a outsider in a World XI.
>>63804551
>greentexting Busquets
>>63804551
Busquets is top m8
>>63804551
Iniesta and Busquets are literally the two best midfielders in the world on current form; they completely controlled the Clasico between the two of them.
>>63804723
>one if not the best holding mid in the game.
He's literally the best defensive midfielder of all-time if you go with a traditional rationale of skill+accomplishments.
what the actual fuck is rooney doing there
jesus christ
>>63804551
biscuits is top class lad, but the rest are trash or trash-ish yeah.
>>63805367
post feet ellie
>win fuck all yet again
>12 players in the nominees
why do fucking africans, asians, south americans and mudslimes get to vote for this?
at least make western european votes count double
>>63802318
>>63802458
>>63803694
It's particularly baffling to see Navas up there and Bravo not. They've played at a similar high level and Bravo's won way more.
