XXS is Best

i always knew he'd start balling. he has both the physical capability and mentality to keep going despite the negative energy around him. both garnacho and rashford think they are prime Ronaldo and do not give hojlund any significant assistance yet he keeps running like a poacher striker waiting for his opportunity. hope he'll be 82/89 soon

Oh my days if these are the players that are 90/95 nowadays.... We were truly blessed with Cr7, Messi, Hazard, Bale, Neymar, Etc.

Ballon d’or if he was fair: 2008: Ronaldo 2009: Messi 2010: Iniesta/ Sneijder 2011: Messi 2012: Messi 2013: Ribéry 2014: Ronaldo 2015: Messi 2016: Ronaldo 2017: Ronaldo 2018: Ronaldo 2019: Van dijk 2020: Lewandowski 2021: Lewandowski 2022: Benzema 2023: Haaland The journalist who vote, are biased and give the ballon d’or for someone with more skills, vibe a person like mbappe would empty his role perfectly but he had not winning more trophy and yes messi score on pen but messi is messi ( like say guardiola, i am absolutely not with him but that explain that messi have just to score , win one thophy and good stat for having the ballon d’or) and i really think this is like the journalist think about giving him the ballon d’or and he shouldn’t be normal Finally the different between this year and 2021 is that world cup > copa america and messi first season at psg was really really execrable, disastrous and he is only good with argentina As a Cr7 fan ✌🏼, thx for reading this and this is what i really think about this masquerade and he should change the way of giving a ballon d’or for someone and also the journalist.

I prefer Ronaldo instead of him

I like him alot but if he wins the Ballondor it's one of the biggest robberies in football history.

I think him and Ronaldo are even but now him and Ronaldo currently are no where near the best in the world but all time they are the goats

He's still class and I could see him playing in a top club in Europe. However, going to the MLS is a huge downgrade. 88/88

GOAT

Best player in the world. Clear of Halaand

Best: Messi > Maradona > Ronaldo > Pele Greatest: Pele and Maradona > Messi > Ronaldo. "Greatest" is subjective because we all defineit differently. For me Pele and Maradona are what Jordan was to basketball and Ali was to boxing. It doesn't matter who does what in the future, they are the Godfathers of the sport so I consider them the Greatest. Not everyone will agree. But if we're being honest...Messi is better than both of them. Ronaldo is better than Pele too. Peak Ronaldo vs peak Maradona is a debate. I'm still going with Diego.

Mbappe was the best player at the World Cup and the best player at Psg last season Why on earth is Messi odds on to win the ballon dor

As much credit as guardiola deserves I don't see him winning anything this season without haland. Even if he had 200m to replace haland I doubt the result would have been the same with whatever player he signed.

gg city ugly game but win is a win

How does this guy have 66% probability of winning this years Balon d'or? Can someone explain? Bc WC was in 2022 and they bhought the WC for him. He didnt do shit at CL and he is outscored by a mediocre player (Lacazette) in the league.

G.o.a.t🐐💯

No. The difference is that he now has players, management and fans that actually appreciate his presence unlike when he was at Manchester, he has a healthy relationship with everyone which can reflect his performance. Not less than a year ago Ronaldo contributed 21 goals in 27 starts in the Premier League, does that mean that the Premier League isn’t competitive? :) That being said, I’m not a fan of Ronaldo since he plays for my rivals

Last time I checked dribbling doesn't win you games, goals do and this man has the most in history, go watch american football.

Messi is a geat player but there is one better than him

GOAT

certain ppl were saying city were in a "transition year" bc they sold sterling and jesus and replaced them with alvarez and the greatest scorer in football history on top of an already consecutive title winning side lol. (those certain fans were city fans overreacting after a few bad results and mostly liverpool fans and others rivals coping haha)

Saka has been better the previous seasons, so 85 for both would be okay for now, and surely they deserve more Pace.

Deserves a downgrade

https://youtu.be/RZsIzVoFsEk Really is hilariously disgusting, will give some cred to messi for taking his penalties but its the most undeserved wc of all time no one can disagree after rewatching these calls

Doesn’t get enough slander for this entire PSG thing, and it's not fair. He's been a mile away from what was expected. In terms of expectations VS reality this up on par with Ronaldo's return to United, possibly worse since Ronaldo joined a shit team and Messi's team was expected to win the UCL only the fail to even reach the Semis.

I would say Haaland (If he win the CL and/or the PL, continues to score and break all the records but the fact that he has not played the WC will be a problem). There were also Mbappe and Messi but the fact they have been eliminated in the CL will be a problem (especially for Mbappe since Messi won the WC). I could also see a defender

You are acting like just because he doesnt have messi's dribbling he doesnt deserve messi's rating. Mbappe's pace obviously adds to his rating. Do you know how fifa ratings work or is this all new for you?

I've been saying this for years tbh, I dont think any reasonable football fan doesnt think sneijder wasn't robbed. Like i said i respect and love messi but fifa's love for him gave him more ballon d'ors than he deserved. Ofcourse arguing with an argentinian about messi is like trying to run through a brick wall so whats the point.

Messi deserves all the respect and praise for his career, but lets be honest, if it wasnt for FIFA corruptness leo wouldve had 5 ballon d'ors.

Upvote- Haaland better Downvote- Mbappe better

Upvote - Haaland Downvote - Aguero

He own person who robbed 2 golden ball . Such a shame and on the big game he ´s invisible not like cr7 who carried his team when they need him

There's no way they can give Messi the ballond'or. He clearly isn't the best player in the world.

Not a big game player anymore. Sure, he's solid in Ligue 1, but then again... It's Ligue 1. Not saying he wouldn't be able to perform in La Liga if he had stayed at Barça, but he does go missing in important games.

Plenty of top clubs could have still used him, you can’t say someone like Choupo-Moting could join Bayern after having a pretty nothing career and Ronaldo couldn’t

If he wins the Ballon D'or (its basically already happened) over Mbappe and other people who have been good this year I will shave Gianni Infantino's head.

WC or not CR7 is the greatest goalscorer in world football history & it will stay that way. & Has most assists in European football history . Messi will also retire before CR7

he’s just as washed as CR7 so sad to see but it’s true indians and river plate fans are about to flame the shit out of me too but they know it’s true

Messi and Neymar are the ones holding back PSG lmao

He doesn’t have that Ronaldo mentality

The goat debate isnt pure who is the better player, Ronaldo in that era was so clutch while messi continually collapsed other than 2015 in the CL

this happens when you dont play with good players that do everything for you like it happened in thw WC

He should be 89 at most now.

Top scorer in PSG history. He’s already a top 20 player in football history. And will probably retire as the GREATEST OF ALL TIME!🐐

The wc? Not a case to anything. Messi is considered by many as the goat because of what he did his all career, imo the wc adds nothing since it was clearly rigged. He scored 4 pens man he did nothing special in the wc except taking the gifts fifa gave him

Goat

how can you be the best in the world if you're not the best on your team ?? Watch the Real games last season and tell me it's deserved

The audacity of fifa is just crazy. Clearly riggind a wc so argentina win it and then rob the best players of the individual awards just to give it to argentinians. Might as well just gave those awards to the refs of the wc that were the true winners of the cup

Wasn't even the best player at PSG and completely shit for the majority of 21/22. Not to mention that he once again ghosted against the big teams in the Champions League (Real Madrid/Bayern) and was carried by questionable penalties during the world cup. Undeserved award.

Even in WC Martinez wasnt the best GK

Messi / Ronaldo join PSG(qatar owned) / join Al Nassr(saudi owned) play in WC 2022(qatar host) / play in WC 2026(saudi host) win the WC 2022 after your team being stronly supported by refs / win the WC 2026? (helped by paid refs ofc) arab world owns FIFA enjoy football guys

Yeah i agree, I think even if he moved abroad after last season most wouldn’t argue he went out on a high helping such a rubbish Manchester United side.

he was a beast during messi's time, if you don't believe ronaldo was better than messi during a bunch of years you weren't watching football

Let’s be honest, he’d have a few Balon D’ors under his belt if he’d left. 91/91

probably yes. his peak was amazing, bicycle kick, ronaldo chop, and so many others skill, its just amazing back then. Used to be far superior than even messi.

PSG would most likely lose against Bayern anyhow since Mbappe is out so Messi missing it doesnt matter tbh. Messi doesnt give a F about PSG just like he didnt give a F about Barca so he would not even try to win against Bayern and just walk around on the pitch. He should just join Ronaldo in Saudi Arabia and retire bc it is everyones dream to see Ronaldo and Messi in the same team.

Al Nassr version of Ronaldo>>>> Arsenal version of Sanchez

Some Messi fans are yet to understand CR7 Is the goat because he is by far the most iconic player this sport has ever seen and Messi unfortunately for his fans isn´t a very iconical figure even players like Maradona and Pele also far surpass Messi in that regard and thats what greatness is all about.

He is the goat right now bro

92/92

same level as ligue 1, arguably better. and clear of mls by miles
