Rodri - The 2024 Ballon d'Or Winner! (Pg 131)

I hope future and current stars playing for other teams can see the difference and steer clear of Madrid.

This Ballon d'Or should convince talents like Wirtz, Musiala, and many more generational players that City is the team to play for.

For our current players, this Ballon d'Or will galvanize and motivate them to conquer this season. Finally, our players are receiving the recognition they deserve!
I hope so too. RM have shown interest in taking Rodri and Haaland from us. Perhaps their pathetic actions will show such players what sort of club they really are.
 
What message is the most successful club in the world sending to kids around the world? They should be absolutely ashamed of themselves. If part of the selection criteria for winning is your professionalism and conduct on and off the pitch then they have demonstrated for everyone to see why Vini didn’t deserve it! What a spoilt, egocentric, pathetic little club they are.
 
Those of us watching the entire presentation last night to see Rodri win it live…

Haha, I flicked it on but couldn't take it. Far to dull.

I just read that George Weah handed him the trophy. Has George ever said anything about his time with us. Fascinating Part of our history that.

Fun fact - when growing up in Liberia in the 1970s, George Weah was a childhood City fan. United fans tried to claim it was a bollocks story once he'd signed for us but his comments can be traced back to an interview in a football magazine when he was still playing for AC Milan which was years before we signed him.

As for his time at City, well sadly it was short-lived but he was in the twilight of his career and we were never going to see the best of him. I do think Joe Royle - as well as he served our club as both player and manager - has to take some of the blame for that. The story goes that Weah politely tried to make a suggestion at half-time of one particular game and Royle told him to fuck off! He seemed to struggle with foreign egos, falling out with Weah, Wanchope, and Kinkladze at various times during his managerial career with us.
