Something big is brewing in the scandal department

Gil wrote:Navas wasn't best anything or else he would be starting ahead of Iker. He played in a poor team so he put up great stats, it's ass simple as that. David Marshall did that at Cardiff last season and Simon Mignolet the previous season at Sunderland.

Courtois was easily the best GK in La Liga and him getting injured nearly cost Atleti the title.

Again, La Liga awards should have went to Atleti players. Madrid didn't win a single game last season against Barca & Atleti. Their players best form was in Europe and the Copa.

Stop pretending you actually watched La Liga last season. The only reason you care is because Chelsea bought half of Atleti's roster.

There is no way they are giving the award to a player who left the league anyway so Courtois and Costa had that going against them. But aside from that Navas was fantastic last season, it was clear to anyone with eyes he was playing at an elite level. The only reason he doesn't play now is purely politics. As for CR, he is the Pichichi and the best player in the world, of course he was the best forward and best player in the league lol

For me it would have been:

Best forward: Ronaldo
Best attacking midfielder: Koke
Best defensive midfielder: Modric
Best defender: Godin
Best keeper: Navas
Best coach: Simeone

But it is what it is.

Agree with this. Maybe a bit harsh on Gabi but this would have been much more fair.

Agreed too. I could live with either of Gabi or Modric winning best DM.

In what world is Modric a DM He didn't play DM last season. If anyone did it was Alonso.

I think just in Italy / Serie A fans don't care own league's awards lol
I don't know even who wins them every year in Serie A

Some clearly wasn't paying attention, Xabi was a deep lying playmaker last year. Modric had more interceptions and tackles than Xabi last season

This year however Kroos has done more defensive work than Modric so the roles may have reversed a little bit or at least it's more evenly split.

Ain't nobody got time fo dat shit tbf

The Tebas family are Madridistas. There is a picture floating around showing them in Real Madrid shirts. Interesting piece from Paco Aguilar - it sheds a lot of light on the favouritism through the voting for the Ballon d'Or. I would recommend that you read it, I do not think that it's just a typical Real Madrid-hating article like someone said earlier.

If i say what i think about the awards, i could be sent to jail for it..*coffee*

lol nice reference.

Gil is right tbh, I hate how stats are now more important than winning to the new generation of fans.

Modric and Ronaldo did *bleep* all in the games that mattered and were the reason they didn't win the league.

They finished 3rd for a reason, they were 2nd best against both Barca and Atletico. Winning should be rewarded over stats and image.

Oh and Navas you damn well he wouldn't be in the discussion if he stayed with Levante, stop the embarrassing Madrid bias.

For Navas, A lot of people were praising him before he was even linked to Madrid.

And it's not that hard to understand that winning team doesn't mean they have the best players. Chealsea won the CL with arguably the worst performances of a CL winner, ever. United won cups and leagues with performances that no one would call inspiring.

All of you people are acting as if the best player award always went to a player in the winning team, this is ridiculous. Yes, Ramos shouldn't have won, Iniesta was even a bigger controversy, but to to say Navas or Ronaldo shouldn't have won the award is just stupid.

Pretty sure we all said he was the best keeper in the league, even before he signed. It's just people's irrational hate towards everything Madrid related that makes you state he isn't a deserving winner. 16 clean sheets for Levante of all clubs, singlehandedly won them a lot of games. But yeah it's only because he play for us now he gets all the love.. yeah.

Ramos winning is not anything wrong with this award in particular, it's just all awards, coaches and everyone in the entire world of football that wrongfully believes Ramos is a great defender.

Also this Madrid finish 3rd argument to suggest Barca players should win is ridiculous, since the f'ed up more in the league when it mattered. Also we finished at same f'ing point tally.

Did you even watch real Madrid games last season? if so, please tell me who was recovering balls in Madrid's third?

Suddenly people who barely watch a couple La Liga games all season long became experts on individual performances. =/

Title says this is about something "something big".

Ok.

It's a bit sad to be honest.

Smh..madrid fans. To say some french fries on here were busy lobbying for the BDO award to be given to robbery last season simply cause he was on the winning team and now saying how being on the winning team no longer matters..the award is and will always be about the best performance and not the best players..this team bossed madrid and barca individually and won the league last season against all odds ffs, even having to play the title decider against direct competitor barcelona on the last day and still came out tops while being a goal down..and that doesn't count for anything? The cr7 butt licking is getting ridiculous at this point..Btw, any barca player has no business being in that line up or the reserves tbh..

It's all about superstars nowadays. That's just the way it is. Just ignore everything bar the games - it's all bullshit.

Modric and Ronaldo weren't the reasons Real Madrid shat itself in the league last season. Mole, out of all people, should know better. And everyone was praising Keylor Navas. Everyone. To act like there is some Madrid bias with respect to Navas is really not giving the man his just praise.

Also, Costa and Courtois left the league, people really thought they would win it?!
