Puskás Award
RESULTS:
Thoughts? Any surprises? The best player votes are quite predictable, I was surprised by a few votes for the best coach (like RVP not voting for Van Gaal, Arda Turan voting Mou as #1 and Messi listing Mou). What do you think of the transparent system? I actually think it does more harm than good because the players feel obliged to vote for their teammates. The award is kind of ridiculos in general, though, as you cannot objectively compare players that play in different positions ...
Regarding Puskás, I'm kind of shocked RVP's header got so little votes.
