Nostalgia merchants can be some of the most annoying group of people in football ngl.
No one takes Ballon D’or seriously now especially after 2020. They are literally making up new criteria now on how Copa America is equivalent to Euro and UCL.
I don’t think Vinicius is heads and shoulders above other players like Jude and Kroos unless we want to focus on goals/assists, but having a player who doesn’t even play in Europe in Ballon D’or finalist would be madness
ballon d’or follows no guidelines for the winner. g/a means nothing to France Football.
No football fan with more than 69 IQ says that Messi deserved 2023 Ballon d’Or and so many people have been complaining about the prestige of the awards since at least 2010.
This is literally just the ”old man yells at cloud” meme lol.
I have unironically never seen say that the current ballon d’or win by Messi was deserved, everyone agrees it should’ve been Haaland.
And i’ve never seen anyone said ”Football fell off” about Vini potentially winning the balon d’or?
But Messi in 2022/2023 season had 41 G/A for Psg
Very cherry picked examples. Try putting Levandowski in there when he didn’t get the Ballon d’Or!
