Germany deserved it, I feel bad for Messi but he needs to be better supported.

Messi was Man of the Match 4 times. 4 very important goals scored. 2014 FIFA World Cup? - Statistics - FIFA.com
Just by stats alone, Messi has him beat.

Just by stats alone, Messi has him beat. | I was talking to a bunch of people about Messi not "deserving" the award.
Basically the MVP, is just that, the Most Valuable Player to their team right?
It's obvious that Argentina would not have been anywhere close to battling for the cup in the finals without him. Every goal he scored and assisted on was crucial and helped them advance. Can you say that about any other player for their team?
Scuba expert Robben? Netherlands is stacked, he would not nearly be missed as much if he wasn't on the pitch. One could say Van Persie is more critical to the team than Robben.
Same with Germany, Klose? Muller? Take any 1 of those players off and they still have an elite team from top to bottom.
Neymar is a strong case since Brazil got dismantled after he got injured, but Silva didn't play either, and it's up for debate whether Silva would have been more important to the team than Neymar given Brazil's defensive break down.
Messi deserved it, literally single-handedly carrying the 10-man team to the cup final. Sad to see him accept the Golden Ball with such a disappointing face but Germany was the best team of the tournament.

Worked out well. Messi won best player, and Germany won best team.
Messi is a class act. He doesn't dive. He even tosses the ball to his oppositions hands when it was their throw in... Most players would toss it aside.
If only Di Maria played

If only Di Maria played | While I agree, an injured Di Maria likely wouldn't do much. A healthy Di Maria would've made a substantial difference, however Argentina would've still been relying on Higuain/Aguero to put Di Maria crosses into the net.
Perhaps that extra threat on the wing opens up some room for Messi. Unfortunately, we didn't get to see how that would've turned out.
As I said earlier, my two favorite players were in the final which kept me interested. While I'm happy to see Ozil and the Germans win playing some attractive football, it would've be so much better had Messi stepped out of Maradona's shadow.
2014 is already lauded as the best WC in the modern era by some pundits. Judging by some of the performances by individuals (the usuals plus the guys like James Rodriguez who used this tourny as a coming out party) as well as teams like Costa Rica, I would tend to agree. So many great stories out of this WC. And to balance out the good, there were the very tragic stories of Neymar and the Brazillians, as well as the funny with Suarez pulling a biting three-peat on Chiellini.
At least Euros are only 2 years away. I can see Germany pulling in 3 consecutive major tournaments like the Spanish did prior to 2014. 4 years is always a long wait, but since it always coincides with the Winter Olympics it doesn't seem to be too long of a wait.

Klose comes off for the last time after playing a pretty good game...old guy doesn't have enough left to go more than 90, tells Gotze to go get 'em...and the kid, who probably grew up watching Klose score big goals (what kid in Germany didn't?), goes out and fucking gets 'em. Torch passed. WELTMEISTER.

Gotze scoring the winner is the perfect way to finish.
What better than to have the future finish the tournament with a bang
Germany is going to continue to be good for the next two worldcup.

The oldest players next World Cup will be Lahm and Schweini at 34 and 33 if Klose retires. Neuer at 32. Everyone else will be in their 25-30 range and maybe Reus will be healthy.
Will pretty much be the same team.

Pretty sure this was Klose's last WC. He turned 36 back in June, so I don't see a stacked Germany team still having a 40 year old Klose on their squad come 2018

I actually thought he had a good chance of playing too.
