Utterly classless pricks Real Madrid, yet we already knew this.

Rodri is the best in the world, we knew this too.

Delighted for him, he so deserves it. I hope it gives him a massive boost in his recovery.

Been impressed with Dias in the last 24 hours too, showing his leadership. Traveled out there, his comms on social etc about Rodri has been spot on - concise, personal, clearly supported him back stage as per a few photos.

haha did you see Bernardos? Taking the piss out of Dias finishing 30th. He's a proper little twat :)

But agree about Dias in the main. Top guy. Bernardo too.

If it were up to me, any player who declares the ballon d’or to be their ultimate aim int he sport should be banned from ever winning it (cough Bellingham, Alexander Arnold, Neymar, Vinicius, Mbappe cough)

This is a team sport and any individual awards should be seen as incidental to team success.

The best thing about Rodri winning was him saying he never focused on winning it.

Absolutely spot on Bez. Their actions and that shown by the idiots shouting “Vini” when the announcement was just about to be made are totally disrespectful. It shows how childish and pathetic they are. I think that they need to take a good look at themselves.

After this stunt... Real Madrid are not respected at the Etihad so does that mean they'll never visit us again?

The more I think about it the more I think their responses was one of sheer bewilderment that their various backhanders and blackmail schemes didn’t see their player win it.

It’s the same behaviour of the kid that shows up to the park with the expensive official math ball to play with but then goes in to a rage because he can’t be a team captain, grabs it back, and goes home.
 
Now that the joy and applause have settled down on Rodri winning, what does it mean for Manchester City and the Premier League? First, Manchester City have produced a ballon-dor winner on merit. Second, it shows that the Premier League is a great league.

Manchester City can now say to players come to us and we can make you a ballon-dor-winner, Also Haaland does not need to move to Spain if he dreams of being a ballon-dor-winner, Manchester City has now been rewarded for all the hard work from everybody from Pep to the tea lady,

For the first time, I think Manchester City are now at the top table with the so-called elite clubs, You can win it all at Manchester City, We now have a Ballon Dor player who won it playing for Manchester City, That is BIG in football terms and sort of sends the Litle old city quotes and puts them to bed,

The Media and Image Value Manchester City hold around the world is now Big Money and Others will want to tap into it including Uefa, Fifa, Premier League, We now have something they want to be linked to,

Fantastic News for Rodri and it is well-deserved and for Manchester City its buzzing
