I don't think this forum could handle me raving about two Belgium youngsters tbh. And that definitely is impressive so perhaps I shouldn't have mentioned Courtois. How about Griezmann then which is surely the worst suggestion of all. Griezmann's scored 5 more goals than Lukaku this season. From the left wing. 1. Ronaldo 2. Messi 3. Suarez 4. Ribery 5. Ibrahimovic 6. Lahm 7. Bale 8. Robben 9. Iniesta 10. Neuer 11. Neymar 12. Vidal 13. Diego Costa 14. Thiago Silva 15. Robert Lewandoski

Couldn't fit a centre back in my list but I would have gone for Varane if I could.

So when players like Koke, Pogba, Fred, Isco and Courtois are mentioned nobody bats an eyelid. But when I mention Lukaku who is second to only Suarez in PL goal scoring charts of 2013 thats not okay? You can't criticise me for including Lukaku and not criticise those who included the players that I have just mentioned. Pogba made 27 appearances for team that won Serie A last year and played every game for them this season in which they are currently top as well. He also won Golden Boy ahead of Lukaku. Fred won the Confederations Cup for his country and scored the goals in the Semis and Final. Courtois Djed and I already covered. Koke has started nearly every game this year for the team 2nd in La Liga only by 2 goal difference and who won the Copa Del Rey last year. Worthy of being Top 15 in 2013? Probably not. More ridiculous than Lukaku? No. Isco has been a star for both Malaga and Madrid this season. Runner up to Iniesta in La Liga attacking mid of the year award. Arguably 15 players better than him but he's been far better than Lukaku, sorry.

Everyone's jumping on him just because of his ridiculous manlove for Lukaku. Who gives a fuck, honestly? It's a lot more boring watching everyone stalk Mikes posts than actually reading Mikes posts.

I don't really care he's put Lukaku in but when he complains about people like Cortois and Pogba being unjustified then it's just stupid

He's not complaining, he's comparing their inclusions to Lukaku's

Quick update - 40 ballots now entered (up to Hellas). 57 players chosen. Ronaldo chosen 40 times. 3 players chosen 39 times. 13 players chosen 20 times or more. 13 players have also accumulated 100pts or more.
Also to defend Mike a bit, I don't think Lukaku is that ludicrous of a selection. He wouldn't be in my top 15 but he's deserving of being in that pool of 50-100 players up for consideration, then it just comes down to personal preference and will also be affected by who you've seen more of, he's scored a lot of goals at 2 clubs in the Premier League and won lots of games almost on his own. I didn't see Mike's first list but judging by the comments he had Terry and Cech in, fair enough, he deserved stick for that because they're nowhere near the top 15 players in the world this year, Lukaku isn't that bad of a pick. His list is obviously a tad Chelsea biased but giving Lukaku 1 point doesn't strike me as that crazy. I gave Tevez 2pts which is arguably a less deserving selection and didn't receive any stick. Leaving Bale out seems silly but Messi, Ribery, Ibra and Suarez have been left off people's lists too.

Having Lukaku as one of the 15 best players in 2013 IN THE WORLD is a decision that deserves stick
Edit; to be fair I've not put my list up but I hate doing this stuff anyway, always know I'll miss someone out.
