I really really don't rate him at all. He's just one of those players who I will never like. How he gets in the Real team ahead of the likes of Benzema, Ozil and Modric is beyond me. Anyone agree? Or care to explain how he merits a Madrid starting place?
PS I'm in New York at the moment so that's why I'm posting at such an unearthly hour.

You're completely mistaken if you think Di María's inconsistent. In fact, he's one of Madrid's most consistent players. And it's not just about his ability on the ball; his defensive work rate's tremendous, does so much to protect the RB.
Missed a sizeable chunk of last season through injury, yet still managed 5 goals and 15 assists in just 16 Liga starts and 7 sub appearances.

Yes. And Danny Welbeck weighs less too.
Because Danny wears red and black socks, it is not as apparent.

Does Danny have Polio?
On a serious note I highly doubt he has skinnier legs than Di Maria.

Ozils a mile better

How can people not rate Di Maria? For a player as talented as him, his work rate defensively is astounding. Usually players with his attacking ability don't commit themselves defensively as ardently as he does and this deserves massive commendation in itself. Furthermore I fail to see what he is lacking. Excellent dribbler, passer and his movement on and off the ball is superb, allowing for great link up play. Last night was a prime example; he was top notch, roaming about the pitch, popping up in several positions, taking players on constantly, sending lovely passes through the city defence which the likes of Higuain contrived to spurn. I really don't understand how some of you guys watch football.

Only one person on this thread has said they do not rate him. Chill out.

I have always maintained that Di Maria is the best winger in the world currently.
