you still have to beat people to flop. most players couldn't have gotten those type of flops.

i'd say he's the best attacker i've seen this world cup.

He's not even in the discussion for best player in the tournament.

Messi, Ronaldo, James Rodriguez, Thomas Mueller I could keep going....

I'm not sure it's entirely the lack of effort though. He just isn't that fast and explosive like a couple of years ago anymore.
Maybe that's because he isn't at 100% after the injuries or maybe it's just the beginning of his decline.

nah its the same.. couple of years ago he would have had like 20-25 explosive individual runs in one game, nowadays its more like 4-5.. im not worried though even when he loses some of the explosiveness and quickness in his 30s he still has a great all around game.. would make a great 10

as for robben when you look at his career its pretty obvious that he is an all time great.. although im not sure thats what most people think when they look at him.. injuries, flopping, the 2010 finals choking have taken its toll on him

Yes, Robben is the best player in this world cup. He's playing at such an extreme level. He could pull off a 2006 Zidane (without the headbutt) and win the whole thing on basically his own.

I honestly don't see the issue. Zidane just isn't what the world wide Real Madrid *********ion fest made him out to be. Of course he's an all time great, but I hate the way people put him on a pedestal, even going as far as calling him the GOAT at times, or place 6 rolling smiles when I state my opinion that Matthaeus was the better player. As far as his hype is concerned, he didn't match it at Juventus or at Real Madrid. He won one Champions League with the most stacked team in the world beating Bayer Leverkusen in the final (being a ghost throughout the game except for his awesome volley.) He wasn't good at the 1998 World Cup either until the final. 3 awesome goals which helped his teams win titles, fine, and he's definitely worthy of being an all time great, but he's not the overall player people make him out to be.

I think he is. Got the feeling that Golden Ball could be decided in the Argentina-Netherlands game
