The Best Of 2012

By Shivashankar

The best of 2012 – a recap on some of the best moments from 2012, compiled from news as well as trolls.

New year/ transfer window

The best picture to start this post! Wish you all a very happy new year 2013 and a very happy transfer window for your club!!

Mesut Ozil – The best ‘10’ across Europe

Now, let’s start with the biggies of the year 2012. Midfield maestro Ozil has more assists than any other player across Europe! That’s HUGE. For long, people have called Xavi and Iniesta as the pass and assist masters. Is it? Stats prove otherwise. Even Benzema has more assists than Xavi. Enough of cule bickering. And I find it amusing that Ozil does not feature in FIFpro’s team of the season. Uefalona. Fair enough.

Legends and Displacement

Real Madrid legend, became a legend with Schalke  04, when he left the club when the season ended. His #7 jersey was retired and fans gave him a very emotional farewell.

Del Pierro left Juventus, who refused to offer him a contract, to Australia. But not before he helped his team to the Scudetto.

Michael Ballack announced his retirement, after his contract ended with Leverkusen. The guy who has more number of runners up medals than any modern day player, we take a bow.

Jose over pep

Jose Mourinho, stamped his authority over Barcelona as Real Madrid trashed Barcelona and became the Spanish kings for their liga #32. Real set a record for the number of points and number of goals in a season. Unable to match Real and Mou, pep announced that he was leaving Barcelona, humiliated by Real yet again. Bye bye baldie pep.

Ferggie – The toad and its load

When your team doesn’t play well, you have to better admit it. Ferggie has the habit of doing the exact opposite. When united were held by a brilliant Swansea team, coached by ex Real Madrid player Laudrup, he starts a different story. Remember how he hit becks?!

Spanish players troll

Spanish players reigned the troll arena as Torres, Busquets and Valdes claimed topped charts. Barcelona, apart from these two individuals, were also trolled n times as a team.

2012-2013 Season

The new season began on a wonderful note for 3 teams in the three big leagues. Helped by refs, linesmens, uefa, they have set records and have topped their respective leagues till the end of 2012.

Ozil vs xavi + iniesta – A comparison

How stupid can this get? A player has more assists than two players combined, in the best league across Europe, FIFA and UEFA claims he is not fit to be the best. Man Ure and Farca fans overlook stats and will tend to agree. But will that make the fact untrue?!

Raul vs messi

So much has been said about Messi. But can he even be compared with the legendary Raul Gonzalez? No.  Raul is the best club striker of all time. The leading scorer in Europe and with zero assists from Uefa and FIFA. I hope people remember the conspiracy due to which he did not win a Ballond’Or.

Late Octo Paul better than mayans

What a waste of time by people to believe in the Mayan Calendar?! Insane. The late Octopus Paul, which predicted the 2010 world matches, was way better!

Real Madrid vs Man Utd

The scariest though for all Man Utd fans, players and ferggie, is to face Real Madrid, twice in their champions league. They qualified top of their group, only to be drawn with RMCF…LOL!

Busquets Football Academy

How to play football the Busquets way? YOLO. His very own academy teaches or rather lets you dive into the game. If you really know what I mean!
