@@matthewtovey9771 100% agree, and we can't include Rodri cause he was literally knocked out in the Quater finals of the UCL and Foden was Man City's best EPL player.
And it's absurd that he wasn't. He has been quite clearly the best player in the PL for the past two seasons, and City got eliminated by the tightest of margins in the CL (in a tie they dominated). Rodri didn't get much attention because there are flashier players at City, none of whom match his impact.
Rodri ghoasted in big games. Against Real Madrid in the Champions League did nothing. Against Man Utd in the FA cup dissapeared. In the Euro final was when he left the pitch that Spain scored.
Vini wasn’t good at Copa America? Demolished Paraguay, won a certain penalty against Colombia which wasn’t given, he did okay given the circumstances. He is the best player in the world right now and nobody deserves the ballon d’or like he does…
Because rodri is actually the most valuable player to his team at this stage. Every time he doesn’t play, mancity is not themselves. When he’s playing, they are arguably the best team in the world (altho lost to madrid, they do have the best squad).

Real Madrid lost only 2 games in all competitions, how are people forgetting this insane season? Also, Rodri got a red card & missed a lot of games, resulted in many games lost for City... it was consecutive losses, Rodri had an average season compared to his treble winning season.
Rodri alone only lost one game whole season, if not the FA cup final he would have go unbeaten whole season. And let me remind you that, City lost Gundo on transfer and KDB was injured more than half of the season, it was Foden and Rodri that took City on their shoulders. If City moves forward in the CL Foden would have been the player who deserved it more he performed better than Jude and Vini, remember Vini was injured from the start of the season and was out for 3 months, Jude who started well didn't end well, if we talk about performance is Rodri who deserved it but is the CL that's putting Jude and Vini there but both doesn't reach the level for this award because of the trophies they won but why can't we give to a person who performed better and was more impactful. At 1st we only put our eyes alone on attacking players which has hurt most players who did difficult work in games

Ballon'd or is not like 30 or 40 years go. you win it because you actually excelled in your country and club and you are really a football genius. Today, it is too easy and it has becone a fantasy. If we want fantasies, then Vini Jr should win it. He is the player that did something remarkable in the champions league for his club and in la Liga as well!
When did you guys start watching football because the ballon d’or has always been like this. Rossi won the ballon d’or 42 years ago he played 10 games the entire year but because he had such a fantastic World Cup he won the balon d’or. Learn about the sport before commenting on it.
@@tevildo45Yaaa ..the award was trash for long time. Many WC winning players won it like that R9 02 and Messi 22 another examples. But when not that much very popular players did similar +club performance too no award , examples are Xavi, Iniesta or Sniedger 10, Neuer 14 or Griezman 18. ...
Because Vini and Bellingham both laid an egg on Copa America and Euros respectively. Maybe Cavajal, but that would give a disrespect to Maldini who is considered the best defender not getting a Balon d'Or.
@@barcelona909Bellingham was pretty decent. Won England 2 games with his goals and had 2 assists too. He was pretty present in the defensive side too.
@@barcelona909so let’s give it to Rodri because his stacked team won the euros ? Nico Williams had a better euros, Fabian Ruiz had a better euros. Wirtz who had a good euros n a good season why not him? Lmao just stop the Rodri narrative man.
Nobody was mentioning rodri for it before the euros all of a sudden he should be favorite, nah he wasn't even all that in the euro, kante, yamal, niko williams and dani olmo had a better euros.
Even I've noticed that, it's moslty messi and Barcalona fans cheering for Rodri coz they have no contenders close to jude Bellinghim or Vinicuis Jr.. ..also saying it will be worse BallnDor if they win ...as if last year messi deserved 😂
Vini and Jude had terrible Internationl performances you can’t just ignore that . Jude was trash in the second half of season , was trash all big games . Vini missed most of the season at the start but he was good second half . Also was trash in copa. Rodri was good all season not just 1 game where he was 1 moment and then goes back to doing nothing like Jude . Should be Rodri of Carvajal
No one is ever going to reach those Messi and Ronaldo heights again. These players up for the balon d or had a great season, you have to give them praise for what they accomplished instead of bashing them and comparing them to those once in a lifetime greats.
If the organisers want to manufacture another fake rivalry and change the rules of the award (again) so they can keep giving the Ballon d'Or to the same hype job players every year then you'll have to eat your words.
They say rodri but he got hooked at half time in the final. Spain midfielders Dani olmo and Fabian Ruiz were better than him throughout knockout rounds (decisive goals). The euro pott award went to rodri bcuz they knew he's the only one that can compete media wise against Vini n Bellingham. If it's trophies + consistency then its Carvajal.
B.S 😂 Carvajal was not even in the Euro team . Also Carvajal got suspended in the semis and nobody is going to take him for that is not fair play even if it's one for the team. Missing out semi final matters too. Rodri scored the crucial k.o goal that brought Spain back to the game. So you can also shove that logic down. Rodri is a defensive midfielder , his goal contribution don't even have to be taken into account on top of that. He did the best in his profile. Who are these "they" again? You act like some are conspiring against Madrid players when they are themself the biggest dynasty and media influence 😂 . You Madrid fanboys should rest . Vinicius claim rest on UCl Ko matches , then Rodri has the same shot with the Euros. Even Yamal dropped a masterclass in Euro which Vini and Bellingam wished they could have done for their nations in Euro KO's or Copa 😂. Why is he not in the discussion as well? You want to right your narrative lol
@@ALMARAZLEGACYNo one even the Brazilians legends themself will root for Vini😂 . Many of them has come calling out for his and the teams terrible perfomance in general.
@vishnujain7645 That's a lie, rodri never scored in the knockout rounds. Carvajal missed the semis yeah, rodri didn't and he still wasn't the best in semis. Fabian literally had more touches than him. Rodri was bad in the semi and final matches. And yes people are against real madrid bcuz they are anti-madridistas. Unfortunately in this world there are more anti-madridistas than madrisdistas.
Jude Bellingham deserves the Ballon D'or. He's the most deserving one, played through injury for half the season and took England to the final. And also has the most g/a among the top 3 favourites right now whilst playing as a midfielder.
@@ashleymarshall918 Bellinghim scored 23 goals 11 assists in la liga also won Champions League,La liga, Spanish Super Cup, UCL YPOTS, The POTS League, Golden Boy award,Kopa award, Laureus award. Vinicuis Jr winning La liga, Spanish super Copa scored 3 goals against Barcalona to win , UCL finals and goal scorer too .... And then comes rodri 🤡
Has to be Vini, Rodri won the epl and the euros but hes not even the best player in any of the teams he plays on. More Vini and Bellingham hate then actual Rodri merit
It’s Barca fans who are on social media saying Rodri must won because they don’t want any good things for Madrid and we all know it’s going to Madrid player vini or Bellingham
I’m a Barca fan, and while I hate to say it, I think Carvajal deserves it the most. He has been one of Real’s most influential players with all the injuries at the back, and he was one of Spain’s best players. Vinicius for me is the second favorite. Great season, but disappointing Copa. At first it was Bellingham for me, but the second half of his season plus the Euro’s was a step down.
Both Vini and Bellingham laid an egg in the Copa America and Euros respectively. Regardless, whoever wins the balon d'or will have some sort of underwhelming performance.
For who say that rodri will win it Rodri last season won the UCL the prem ,the FA cup ,clubs WC uefa supercopa , nations cup with spain and he wasn't even in top 5 in ballon d'or
His competition was tougher that season. Also Winning euros and POTT is really good for balondor. And 12 goals and 14 assists with one loss all season is insane, so I’d argue he had a better season this year than last year
Rodri was supposed to win last season. But because they couldn’t upset Messi they didn’t mind. Now because there’s no Messi and young Madrid boys are deserving, haters are coming up with this Rodri gimmick of winning a Balon D Or he has no business of winning
Rodri had his chance last season, and Man City blew it by pushing 3 players at the same time and not backing up any of them. It's clear that they are not familiar with having winners in the team. Vini is going to win it this year, 100%>
Because he was up against fifa's pet. What difference you were expecting? Have you seen the last 3 balon dors were handed to him? Its favoritism. Even haaland could have won that balon dor. But now( 3 years ago), they turned it based on international trophies. Smfh. Dont blame players, blame the corrupted system for not having a true mechanism in place for votings.
If you are giving it to the player with the most trophies it’s Carvajal If you are giving it to the player with the best performances it’s Vini I don’t see how Rodri is even in this conversation.
@@barcelona909just like messi ghosted in his earlier years with argentina, still won balon dors? Vini smoked your entire Barcelona and made you'll cry😂😂 so hatred is palpable here😂 keep crying crylona, those players are nowhere close to vinicius.
@@superman1856 - You must be a Madrid fan cause you are already triggered when I said Vini aint it.

I can even argue Bellingham has a better performance than Vini on club and international performance. As far as Messi goes, that's a off topic from the OP message.
Bellingham is unequivocally the most impressive player this season. People are overhating this kid because they don’t understand his position or role from game to game.
@@totalbodyperformancefitnes4813 you don’t watch the games obviously. He’s put up defensive masterclass after defensive masterclass. More blocks than rodri, same amount of successful tackles, more interceptions than rodri, who is a CDM btw.

Why not? Man City would have struggled to finish top-4 without him, everyone saw that this season whenever he was missing, that's how big his impact is. Won Prem being the best player(doesn't matter foden won the award) and was great at Euros even if I don't think he was the best player at the tournament
Madrid fans don’t get a say. Too biased. It’s easily rodri and it shouldn’t be close. Madrid is an amazing team, but that does not mean one of their players have to win the balondor
@@GauravYadav-bf7qj city struggled because they didn’t have a replacement for him. Completely changed city approach to games. You see Spain had a replacement and actually scored and won when Rodri came off, he wasn’t even the best spanish midfielder.
@@edguinmanuel1385 I have already said that I don't think rodri was the best at euros but atleast he was still great unlike other players and what you said about replacement, it can be said for every player mate, you act like vini or Bellingham score solo goals even tho they generally score tap ins, one on one or penalties, rodri actually dominates the midfield
I believe Carvajal should win the Balon d Or! What more does a player have to do? He’s done it all! His work ethic is insane… Even Roberto Carlos who was a defender got nominated 2xs for the Balon d Or… If Messi can win it doing absolutely nothing, then Carvajal definitely deserves it
@@GauravYadav-bf7qjMessi was booood by his own supporter(psg)he really sucked the whole season. Won a sketchy world cup boom he wins the balondr which Haalad should of won
Calafiori will be a brilliant signing. It was obvious that left back was our defensive Achilles heel last season. With Calafiori as a regular starter along with White, Saliba, and Gabriel next season, Arsenal should concede less than 20 goals in the league. Even without signing a twenty goal per season striker, the team's league record should improve at minimum to 30 - 4 - 4. And that folks will be enough to win the league.
Yeah the Vini or is irritating. Reminds me of Ronaldo and his cabal. Fact is it won't ever be given to someone who's not a forward even though someone like Carvajal has a much better case. It'll be the sexy step over bling army who win again. Another xonjob by those at the top
@mokwadiamg When did you start watching football? It’s always been like this, Rossi won it in 82 he played like 10 matches whole year , r9 was the same in 2002

@@lulamabowdenmagwa6803 you obviously. Don’t watch him to know how good he is defensively.

Shouldn’t be a debate he should easily win
Am I the only one think Carvajal deserve it? La Liga Champion, scoring in the final & winning UCL, & kept Bellingham quiet majority of the Euro final plus winning it. I’m Barca fan & not a fan of his attitude, but gotta give a credit where it’s due. He was important for Madrid & for Spain.
Honestly I think carvajal deserves ballon dor. He’s one of the best and most clutch players for Madrid, excellent defensively, scored in big games, and won the euros too..
I think people don't appreciate Bellingham's Euros enough.. he got them to the finals with personal brilliance (and that goal from saka). In a disfunctioning team it's something
Nada, olvídate, no lo darán a un español. No se lo dieron a Iniesta o a Hierro, los dos mejores jugadores españoles que yo he visto en 35 años, ni tampoco a Xavi, Raul, Busquets, Ramos, Casillas, Xabi Alonso…. Nada que hacer con este disparate de galardón

It’s Vini, Spain still won the final and probably would’ve won most of their games without Rodri, he wasn’t their best midfielder arguably. Not saying he’s bad far from it but if winning the euro is what put rodri above vini then the fact that he was arguably not their best midfielder/player for Spain and Spain even scored and won the final when rodri came off should just put him below Vini.
How is Luataro Martinez not even considered a contender? Top goal scorer in league and copa America. Won both league and copa America. Supercoppa winner and scored the winning goal in both supercoppa and copa America.

@@Asops2023 He did play midfield as per every heat map of the season bar 2 games. CAM is midfield position. De bruyne isnt a striker either. Nor is Özil or Olmo
Let me tell you Haaland with a poor season said by people had almost 40 goals in all competitions compared to his 1st season. Haaland 1st season makes people expect much expectation but it wasn't bad for him to give that numbers out of tiredness and miss most games due to injury. So did Haaland deserve it, if this is his 1st season I bet he gonna win it more than 2023
All those years ago when Messi and Ronaldo were at their prime, the Ballon d'Or wasn't awarded for the sake of being awarded. It was awarded to players who, without debate, deserved it.
Yeah but tbh, it was that era itself which was an anomaly. Now we are back to pre 2008 times, when there are like 30 players at top with very little difference in ability. Probably more than 30 even. And any can have few stellar performances in some KOs games, and win the award.
Toni Kroos to win. League and champions league double winner, their key midfielder. Retired. Arguably the best midfielder of his generation. Sentimentality will win the day. That's my prediction and worth the 28/1 odds.
Fabian Ruiz was the best midfielder for Spain in the Euros while Nico Williams or Yamal was POTT this Rodri gimmick to win Ballon D’or cause the world doesn’t want to see a black player win is really sad
nonsense. Rodri is the engine for club and country. He plays, you win. Vini looked terrible for Brazil, and Bellingham was underwhelming for England. You could argue Carvajal, but he's a nasty, whining bit of work.
Do you know he is not an attacking player right? and his role as a midfielder is not the one to overlap in the box either...so why would the goals be the deciding factor?
It’s crazy that 20 years after Thierry Henry was robbed of his Balon d’or by a white man because they media refuses to see a black player on top…. That we are about to see the exact same thing happen, disgusting
The standards have lowered seriously. Five years or earlier, none of these players would have been considered for Balon dor. Since Messi and Ronaldo declined, there has been no player(s) much above everyone else.
Vini has scored in the last 2 UCL finals he played in which they won, copa America was as joke of a tournament so I don't think it should be factored in at all
PRIMA DI LAUTARO L ARGENTINA DI MESSI NON HA VINTO NIENTE !!! MA MESSI VINCVA I PALLONI D ' ORO .... ORA L ARGENTINA ( E INTER) VINCE TANTI TROFEI PERCHE' GIOCA LAUTARO !! LAUTARO NUMBER 1 !!!!!!!

@@juanolmos7919 Not really I don't care if Madrid player wins it or not.. But if you ask me, Billingham far better player than Vini last season.. no one cares about goal scoring or who has the most assists.. it's WHO IS THE BEST PLAYER ON THE PITCH.. it was Billingham who controls the game.
Vinicius is clear, best player for Spain was Williams and Lamine
Real Madrid lost only 2 games in all competitions, how are people forgetting this insane season? Also, Rodri got a red card & missed a lot of games, resulted in many games lost for City... it was consecutive losses, Rodri had an average season compared to his treble winning season.
Wat about rodri who lost one game????
Rodri alone only lost one game whole season, if not the FA cup final he would have go unbeaten whole season. And let me remind you that, City lost Gundo on transfer and KDB was injured more than half of the season, it was Foden and Rodri that took City on their shoulders. If City moves forward in the CL Foden would have been the player who deserved it more he performed better than Jude and Vini, remember Vini was injured from the start of the season and was out for 3 months, Jude who started well didn't end well, if we talk about performance is Rodri who deserved it but is the CL that's putting Jude and Vini there but both doesn't reach the level for this award because of the trophies they won but why can't we give to a person who performed better and was more impactful. At 1st we only put our eyes alone on attacking players which has hurt most players who did difficult work in games

Carvajal deserves it more than vini or bellingham or even rodri!
Ballon'd or is not like 30 or 40 years go. you win it because you actually excelled in your country and club and you are really a football genius. Today, it is too easy and it has becone a fantasy. If we want fantasies, then Vini Jr should win it. He is the player that did something remarkable in the champions league for his club and in la Liga as well!
Messi ruined this award
When did you guys start watching football because the ballon d’or has always been like this. Rossi won the ballon d’or 42 years ago he played 10 games the entire year but because he had such a fantastic World Cup he won the balon d’or. Learn about the sport before commenting on it.

Vini

Bellingham
I dunno why all of a sudden Rodri’s name is being pushed .
Because Vini and Bellingham both laid an egg on Copa America and Euros respectively. Maybe Cavajal, but that would give a disrespect to Maldini who is considered the best defender not getting a Balon d'Or.

They say rodri but he got hooked at half time in the final. Spain midfielders Dani olmo and Fabian Ruiz were better than him throughout knockout rounds (decisive goals). The euro pott award went to rodri bcuz they knew he's the only one that can compete media wise against Vini n Bellingham. If it's trophies + consistency then its Carvajal.
And the fact that multiple previous balon dor winners root for vini just says it all
Wow spain got lucky to win by a buckups goal with rodri off spain look average in midfield thats why palmer scored think about it?😅
B.S 😂 Carvajal was not even in the Euro team . Also Carvajal got suspended in the semis and nobody is going to take him for that is not fair play even if it's one for the team. Missing out semi final matters too. Rodri scored the crucial k.o goal that brought Spain back to the game. So you can also shove that logic down. Rodri is a defensive midfielder , his goal contribution don't even have to be taken into account on top of that. He did the best in his profile.
Who are these "they" again? You act like some are conspiring against Madrid players when they are themself the biggest dynasty and media influence 😂 .
You Madrid fanboys should rest . Vinicius claim rest on UCl Ko matches , then Rodri has the same shot with the Euros.

@@ALMARAZLEGACYNo one even the Brazilians legends themself will root for Vini😂 . Many of them has come calling out for his and the teams terrible perfomance in general.
@vishnujain7645 That's a lie, rodri never scored in the knockout rounds. Carvajal missed the semis yeah, rodri didn't and he still wasn't the best in semis.

Unfortunately in this world there are more anti-madridistas than madrisdistas.
Jude Bellingham deserves the Ballon D'or. He's the most deserving one, played through injury for half the season and took England to the final. And also has the most g/a among the top 3 favourites right now whilst playing as a midfielder.

I still remember Madrid fans doing the same to Messi. You deserve it ✌️
I’m a Barca fan, and while I hate to say it, I think Carvajal deserves it the most. He has been one of Real’s most influential players with all the injuries at the back, and he was one of Spain’s best players.

Nope. I’m a Barca fan, and I prefer Lautaro Martinez for winning Ballon D’Or.
Both Vini and Bellingham laid an egg in the Copa America and Euros respectively. Regardless, whoever wins the balon d'or will have some sort of underwhelming performance.
Craig says he is a little bit sentimental 😂
For who say that rodri will win it Rodri last season won the UCL the prem ,the FA cup ,clubs WC uefa supercopa , nations cup with spain and he wasn't even in top 5 in ballon d'or
His competition was tougher that season. Also Winning euros and POTT is really good for balondor. And 12 goals and 14 assists with one loss all season is insane, so I’d argue he had a better season this year than last year
Rodri was supposed to win last season. But because they couldn’t upset Messi they didn’t mind. Now because there’s no Messi and young Madrid boys are deserving, haters are coming up with this Rodri gimmick of winning a Balon D Or he has no business of winning
Rodri had his chance last season, and Man City blew it by pushing 3 players at the same time and not backing up any of them. It's clear that they are not familiar with having winners in the team.
Vini is going to win it this year, 100%>
Stop the cap. It was Messi-Halaand-Mbappe-Kdb then Rodri last year
Because he was up against fifa's pet. What difference you were expecting? Have you seen the last 3 balon dors were handed to him? Its favoritism. Even haaland could have won that balon dor. But now( 3 years ago), they turned it based on international trophies. Smfh. Dont blame players, blame the corrupted system for not having a true mechanism in place for votings.
How can Rodri win the Ballon d'or. It's not even close. Vinicius, Bellingham, and Mbappe are more deserving of it.
If you are giving it to the player with the most trophies it’s Carvajal
If you are giving it to the player with the best performances it’s Vini

nonsense. Rodri is the engine for club and country. He plays, you win. Vini looked terrible for Brazil, and Bellingham was underwhelming for England. You could argue Carvajal, but he's a nasty, whining bit of work.
Nobody even talking about Martinez. This is a crime against football.
Vinicius , no doubt.
Stats tell the whole story.
Red card included with that brazil match?
@@barcelona909 Tears 😂👍
@@barcelona909gaycalona also
@@ViswajithPadachery-pb2ue - What is that suppose to mean?
How many goals he scored??? Assists??? Spain won even without him in the final. He went off injured.
Do you know he is not an attacking player right? and his role as a midfielder is not the one to overlap in the box either...so why would the goals be the deciding factor?
Don't be stupid.. modric won it when Messi had the Best stats ..
Well Ronaldo won his euro and dude played 17 minutes in the final.
Rodri💯
Bellingham did what he's never done..Rodri is also a good shout,its also unfair for Caravajal not winning
Why yall never push the same agenda in 2010 when Iniesta won soo MUCH but they gaved it to the spolit child ?? Yall get a life. VINI VINI VINI
How do you know what agenda was pushed in 2010
Vini plays incredible soccer
lol rubbish. most of is flair ends up with getting owned by defenders and he lacks quality infront of goal
It’s crazy that 20 years after Thierry Henry was robbed of his Balon d’or by a white man because they media refuses to see a black player on top…. That we are about to see the exact same thing happen, disgusting
George Weah tho😏
The standards have lowered seriously. Five years or earlier, none of these players would have been considered for Balon dor.
Since Messi and Ronaldo declined, there has been no player(s) much above everyone else.
Vini has scored in the last 2 UCL finals he played in which they won, copa America was as joke of a tournament so I don't think it should be factored in at all
@@andrewrobert22 lmao what why shouldn't it be factored
balon d'or is for one year. your logic is ridiculous. Vini looked terrible for Brazil, and it should matter.
Lol if it's a joke of a tournament then it's all the more reason as to why he should've been able to have a great tournament.
@@jr3213 He scored a brace in 1 of the 3 games he played... How is that terrible?
And Euros is a pathetic overrated tournament
Why is no one talking about lautaro Martinez?
PRIMA DI LAUTARO L ARGENTINA DI MESSI NON HA VINTO NIENTE !!! MA MESSI VINCVA I PALLONI D ' ORO ....
ORA L ARGENTINA ( E INTER) VINCE TANTI TROFEI PERCHE' GIOCA LAUTARO !!
LAUTARO NUMBER 1 !!!!!!! GIOCATORE +FORTE IN CIRCOLAZIONE !!!!
PS
QUESTI GUARDANO SOLO LIGA E PREMIER .... TRASMISSIONE LIMITATA ...
Rodri or L.Martinez deserves it , others are just English madrid media PR stunt
😅😅
Tears are crazy
Barcelona fans don’t want any Real Madrid to player to win …..so they are saying Rodri who other players better than him last season and even the euros
I’m a Barca fan & I think Carvajal deserves it more than Vini or Bellingham.
Don’t like his attitude, but def he should be in the list.
RODRI FOR THE WIN
Bellingham was superb in the first half of the season. Vinicius was superb in the second half of the season. And Rodri was superb during all the season
What did he do that made him superb all season? Explain.
@@isaacgloriosissimus2509 nothing to explain. Just watch him playing. He has lost one game of the last 80, or something like that. As Jorge Valdano wrote some days ago: “We know that football is confused these days; but I wouldn’t like to discover that stupidity rules football if Rodrigo doesn’t win the BdO this year”
@@isaacgloriosissimus2509 Just look at man City's record with and without rodri, you will see the impact. Also even if you talk about stats then 12 goals 14 assists as a CDM are much better than the numbers vini and Bellingham put up from their positions
@@isaacgloriosissimus2509 By the way, as a spaniard I’ve enjoyed for the last 34 years watching four wonderful holding midfielders: Guardiola (1990-2001), Alonso (2002-2014), Busquets (2008-2023) and now Rodri, though he doesn’t play in Spain. I believe those four were fabulous, and not one of them better than the others, but it’s time and a matter of justice that one spanish player wins the f… BdO, and nobody better than Rodrigo
@@GauravYadav-bf7qjhe pushes forward a lot. City’s system really doesn’t have a DM either. It’s a pivot with the CBs close by
Vinni all day. With work he put season after season he deserve to win ballon’dor this year. The flair the contribution he does to his team is amazing. Vinniii
Dani Carvajal
Rodri deserves the Ballon D'or, the best and most consistent player in the world right now!
Lautaro for Bdor!
Why is Rodri in the convo now? It’s real stupid just like the idea of joginho winning the ballondor. Individual performances will be for Jude. Am sure he’s winning it or vini
On what earth does rodri have a legitimate claim to the balon'dor??
All because real madrid have to absolute beast make you hear the haters coming with all this 🐎- 💩
