It had confirmed that would be, but finally a familiar problem converted to Leo Messi in one of the big absences in the gala of the FIFA TheBest . More than missing him in the celebration, there was a lot of that broke one launches in favour of the player of the FC Barcelona, signalling, from his modest opinion, the injustice that committed in the nominations.

Several personalities stood out commented in the previous minutes the big surprise that has supposed that the one of Rosario was not between the finalists to the Best Player of the world, a trophy that has been for Luka Modric with total merecimiento, but in which there have been some doubts. In spite of that the tastes spoke by each one in the assessments of the Croatian, Mohamed Salah or Cristiano Ronaldo, bumps that the '10' did not see recognised his merits.

To start with, it was key piece in the Barça champion almost invicto of LaLiga, and that won the fourth Glass of Rey consecutive in spite of the inopportune trip in the Champions. In Europe also was important although it could not save to his of the elimination, the same that a World-wide of Russia in which it put to Argentina with a 'hat-trick' and in which the legs, and especially the head, did not give him for more.

Precisely, to this did reference Dani Alves, one of the first in speaking on the disappearance of the Barcelona of the final. "It is unfair that Messi was not nominated for the prize TheBest , is not just that only have fixed in what it has done with Argentina and no in what it has done with the Barça, because the whole year that has done has been again brutal, has marked a lot of goals, Boot of Gold, has won two titles... If it is not nominated is because it is incomparable", underlined the side, that yes accompanied him in an Eleven Ideal in which he same was the discussed.

"Have to Messi is a gift for the eyes and for the football, deserve to be nominated and rewarded"

It was to expect that an ex mate and fellow put of his part, but also did it some rivals, like Mauritius Pochettino. "For me, Leo is the number one, and logically always deserves to be nominated and deserve to be rewarded", explained the preparador of the Tottenham, that him elogió and removed a responsibility that for the moment no him atañe: "Have a player like him is a gift for the eyes and for the football in yes, but well, I am not the one who decides and come only to be in these prizes".

Of the same form thought Unai Emery, that also showed thrilled by the possibility that others access to the prizes, a plot that usually is reserved to cracks of a lot of height, like the Argentinian. "Messi know all that it is the best, practically can it be all the years, but also is well that other players have options these days, that can deliver the cake and have some profits".

Another ex mate and fellow like Samuel Eto'or also signalled the merecimiento of the finalists, although it did not doubt in elevating to Messi above the rest: "I Read for us always it will be the best player of the world, of all time. They are the humans those that choose and have chosen to these three, that have done it also very this year, but this does not change the fact that for people like me, or like many, Leo is the best player of the world of all time".

The players of the Barça, forgotten in the FIFA The Best

Perhaps the one of Leo Messi has been the most sounded absence, but after his prize in the Eleven Ideal of the FIFA also has missed to other players of the Barça. In the more than ten culés that aspired to carry some award there was alternative with a lot of merecimiento, as, among others, Samuel Umtiti, winner of a doublet and of the World-wide, or Ivan Rakitic, also champion of League and Glass and runner-up in Russia.
