And while it'll mean nothing to anyone outside Britain, this was my fave bit of punditry

That was pretty funny, unlike the last two guys Suarez bit, I don't think he was expecting this one to hit back

Agreed though there are indeed several stats which can support Messi having technically been the best player there, but it didn't pass the "smell test" for most fans who clearly thought James Rodriguez, Muller, or Ardjen Robben were the best individual performances. In fact, looking at the stats, I damn near say that Muller completely deserved the Golden Boot, he had the 5 goals and 3 assists (including a fucking hat trick!!) and did all that with only 2.3 shots per game (ranking 48th!!).
I still think Messi was being a spoiled teenager for sulking so much about getting that trophy, even if even he realized he didn't necessarily deserve it, ALL THE MORE reason to be appreciative no?
Also, I really agreed with the best XI of the season from that link you posted, couldn't argue against it in any way
