2021 Ballon d'Or

[Hardy]

if Lewa doesn't win it it'll be a robbery. noone in the world deserves it more or is playing at such a consistently high level. the other two who come nearest are Benz and Salah, in that order

Salah can only win October d'or

complete robbery if true. any smuck with a big name can win it if that is the case. they should just hand it back to CR next year if that is all that matters

Messi copa victory was decisive as was Lewa's early CL exit

We probably won’t find out until a week or so before the ceremony like 2019. That’s when the real leaks and stories will come out.

Why is it a complete robbery?

If CR keeps this up and win a major trophy this season, then he would deserve the 2022 edition.

Dani gil who is a journalist based in Paris “Messi is the winner of the Ballon d'Or”

copa victory is for sure a huge plus for messi but when placed in context--going 2 years without the league title, embarassed year in and year out in the CL, utter inability to influence a clasico for the last like 4 years of his barca days--its kind of a hail mary. lewa and benz have been much more consistent in the last 1.5 years, with better big-game performances (lets not forget messis awful copa final vs brazil), and while they too have had defeats, they havent been nearly as humiliating as messi's

Messi hasn’t had a ballon d’or worthy year in comparison to past seasons but the competition in 2021 is weak enough that he might just about deserve it given when voting stopped

well, because the award should be given to the best player during an entire season, taking all trophies into account as well as individual performances. if these standards are used, messi is not a clear favourite, only one among a handful of others who all are worthy of the award. messi's 'name' seems to give him a plus, though, which is unfair

Don't think he is the clear favorite. Will be as tight as the one in 2019 imo.

If it wasn't for the great tournament that he had in the Copa 2021, then the clear favorite would be Lewy.

He isn't winning shit lmfao

This is why I said 'if'
