The Toughest Contender for Ballon D' Or

A while ago he was dominated by any semblance of Messi, Ronaldo and Falcao. In 2013 he was not in any case named among the main 23 players seeking FIFA World Player of the Year while lesser players like Hazard, Cavani and Pirlo were on the rundown of chosen people.

Yet today we are contrasting him with the best players. However there is one major distinction which is that he is more imaginative, more flexible, has more passing capacity and more pace than every one of them.

As far as his performance, in the 2013 -14 season he had 22 assists (more than Messi or Cristiano) and was the top support producer in La Liga. He made 90 caps playing as a focal midfielder as opposed to in his common part as a winger. In the late cordial against the title holders Germany, he part open their barrier from wide positions to score a stunner and set up three different Goals.

He is more flexible and has a higher work rate than Messi and Ronaldo. That is the reason he is known as the "stamina brute" as he can play in hostile positions however as often as possible tracks over to help the barrier (not at all like Messi and Ronaldo). He plays on the left or right flanks as a midfielder, as an assaulting focal midfielder and playmaker or as a supporting striker.

His passing capacity separates him from each other player. He sees spaces, has a fast eye for an executioner pass and can convey a pass with pinpoint exactness.

He has pace over long separations and has hazardous speeding up. One can review his 90 yard dash to set up Ronaldo against Fiorentina in 2014 and in the Champions League Final he did a crisscross spill past 3 players, took a shot which bounced back off the manager which Gareth Bale tapped into give Real Madrid the trophy. His performance run changed the appearance of the amusement and of course he was named man of the match. At that point the intellectuals abruptly began to consider him.

His prosperity proceeded in the 2014 World Cup and in the round of 16 he scored the main Goal of the fixture against Switzerland in the wake of making a dash to get on the end of a through pass from Messi which was immaculate class. In the whole competition he had a greater number of shots on objective than Messi and in spite of the fact that he played just about 300 less minutes he had one and only less solo run into the punishment region than Messi who won the Golden Ball as best player. Sadly he missed the last diversion against Germany through harm which makes you ponder what may have been.

After the World Cup he asked to be paid by his club Real Madrid as one of their top players however they declined and he was then sold for almost $100 million to Manchester United which is the fifth most lavish exchange ever and the most noteworthy charge paid by a British club.

After a moderate begin to the new season by Manchester United Di Maria in his first amusement against Queens Park Rangers scored his first goal with a magnificent free-kick which glided over the line of preventive players and ricocheted inside the far post and Manchester United guaranteed their first win under new mentor Louis Van Gaal.

With the expansion of the Argentine to the Manchester United club they have come back to their winning ways which is no big surprise they were ready to pay such a great amount for him.

Not in Leagues he was superb even in the Mega Event, and he is one of the toughest contenders for this year's FIFA Player of The Year Award.
