Messi wins Ballon D’or

40 goals is 40 goals, but he didn't deserve it this time. Inconsistent and lazy by his own galactic standards. Everyone knows the polish sniper was the obvious choice over the last two years. corrupt as ever.
 
Rofl. Further shows it's a popularity contest, fuck all to do with performances.

On merit, Lewandowski should be the most deserved winner, and Salah should at least be in the top 5.
 
Means fuck all except to fanboys and journos.

Seriously the most deserving player hardly ever wins over the popular one with the press.

And like michelin stars, why the fuck is anyone listening to what a french newspaper thinks
 
How they come to pick the best for this award is ripe for backhanders 150 journalists pick their top five players!

Why not go of stats trophies goals assists clean sheets pass completions!?

I think that's it in a nutshell.

I honestly don't think it is that unreasonable that he has won it. As much as I actually want to disagree, and when seeing it initially did.

If you were to ask me who the best player last year was, I'd say Lewandowski. If you asked me to vote on the same criteria the jury vote on, I'd give Messi 6 points and Lewandowski 4 (there is no 5, which in itself sways it). And multiply that and the award pretty much wins itself, for Messi.

In truth, even if it was done on statistics, he probably still would have won it, despite how much he has dropped in level, he still did have an excellent season both at club and international level.
 
These awards just proved to the world how much of an embarrassment they are.

That's what coming in third place and getting your arse handed to you in Europe gets you.

Surely they have now lost all credibility? Players should just boycott this nonsense.
