The Ballon D'Or goes to...

[Thaksinssoldier]

Just for giggles and with all our players looking great right now, let's play a little game.

Who from our team will be the first City player to make the shortlist of 3 for the Ballon D'Or?

Bonus points for saying when :-)

 

[hawkhurst]

Messi - 2018 :)

 

[RayCTID]

Sergio

 

[MarsLlama]

Sané, if anyone. Will be there for the 2018/19 season when he gets 20 goals and ten assists after winning the World Cup with Germany.

 

[Electric Blue]

Danny Murphy reckons that Philip Billing fella should get it !

Always thought KDB had potential ballon d'or nominee written all over him. It'd require Messi and a Ronaldo to sod off first though.

 

[Gareth Barry Conlon]

I think we would need to do better in the crunch CL games to get someone in the reckoning. You would need to be top 2 in your league and SF of finalist in the Cl, that would seem to be the criteria. If we get that far this year then any of our front 3 could get a nod, in fact the further back you go in our team the less likely it gets!

 

[BillyShears]

Take your pick. Sterling, Sane, Jesus, and KDB all gonna get into that top 3 in the next 5 years IMO.

 

[Trevor Morley's Tache]

Gabrielle Jesus - 2018
Leroy Sane - 2019
Alex Garcia - 2020

I wish. The way the media are rodding us constantly, and the fact that the Swamp Rat Gill has anything to UEFA/FIFA there will never be a City player topping that list.
