Why Is That English Premier League Players Barely Win The Ballon D'or by Brighton1(m): 3:37pm On Oct 26, 2022
The English Premier League is the leader in viewership across the globe.

The English premier league is also Considered the toughest league competition in the world.

English premier league also surpasses all others in terms of financial might like spending outrageous amount of money on buying or selling their players.

But Why is that Ballon d'Or winner barely comes out of England despite being considered the most toughest and most viewed football league in the world. Cristiano Ronaldo was the last person that won it in English premier league 2008 when he was playing for Manchester united.

2020 there was no Ballon d'Or winner due to corona virus outbreak but assuming it held we all know it was not coming to England. The award was going to Robert Lewandowski in Germany, FC Bayern Munich.

The Ballon d'Or award is an annual football award for the best player over the previous year. The recent winner of the Ballon d'Or award is a Real Madrid player, Karim Benzema.

Is it that English premier league players are just overrated and hyped? Or is it that if you want to create name for yourself premier league is the right place But if you want to win trophies Spanish league is the right place?? Please let share our thoughts on this issue.

English premiere league is so difficult.
even more difficult than Spanish La-Liga.
It's only in the English premier league that you can win the golden boot by scoring only 19 goals.
Cristiano Ronaldo & other great strikers in all their seasons in the premier league never managed to score more than 50 goals in a season.
It's only in the Spanish la-liga that players like Ronaldo & Messi managed to score 80 goals or more in a calender year because of how easy the league is.
And most times the number of goals you score, determines your position on the balon-dor list.
Even players like Negrado & Jesus Navas who flopped in the premier league, became stars when they switched to La-liga.

English League is not difficult. It is just that they didn't have quality goal scorers in their primes. E.g Cr7. When cr7 started in England, he wasn't prolific as he was when he got to Spain. Cr7 started declining in goal scoring from 2016 in Spain.

Mo Salah won the golden boat with 34 goals a certain season but you are here telling us that most a player can score in England wouldn't be more than 20 goals to win golden boot.

This season will shock you. You will see how Halaand will win the golden boot with more than 40 goals. He is all ready on 17 with 27 games left. You will see that your "hard" league is always short of prolific strikers.

You are saying it is only in Spain, one can score more than 80 goals in a calendar year.

Apart from Lionel Messi mention one player that has played in Spain and had scored more than 70 goals in a calendar year.

Cr7 you are mentioning has never scored up to 70 goals in a calendar year in laliga.

Jesus navas and who so ever you are calling can't even lace the boot of jao Felix.... You are calling average players, stars in Laliga. I am trying to remember the last time I heard of the name Jesus Navas in Sevilla.



The thing is Spain are always lucky with exceptional players.

And they do very well in European football competition (UEFA &Europa). That is why they are very good in producing more Balloon D'or winner. Even Fifa Best players.

Man City is showing how difficult it is. That also explains why EPL teams have reigned in all European competitions the last 15 years, right? I thought all EPL fanbois have been cured of all this brainwashing.

So, it's difficult for strikers in the EPL to win golden boot in England because the EPL is so tough, right? So, why are EPL strikers not winning the golden boot in European competitions? Oh I know why! They play against "tough" EPL defenders in the UCL and UEL. Smh.

You're a real specimen of brainwashing. Now, lemme lecture you. When Ronaldo was at Man U in England (that he didn't score 50 in a season), did you know how many goals he scored in the UCL for Man U in all of his 6 years or so? 17. F**king 17. When he got to Spain and started scoring 50 in a season (due to the league's weakness, according to the traditional braindead EPL fanboi take), he scored 51 for Madrid in 3 seasons. That is, he scored 3x his UCL goals at Man U at Madrid. What do you think was responsible for that? He was playing against "tough" EPL defenders in the UCL while at Man U, right? EPL fanbois should try use their brains once in a while.

Even Hazard (who's nothing at Madrid) was a star in the EPL. How about that? Trying to prove you guys don't have a monopoly of brandead takes.

They don't have individual exceptional players.the only time they do and there was no competition outside the league was the last time they won It,with Ronaldo. Harzard should have won it but he was a very gifted a lazy footballer.

It's a very different football in England. English football is intense, physical and fast pace due to fierce competition, tense rivalry and unsettled age long derby among English teams. This happens in the Premier league down to the second division of English football.

In such condition of rivalry and physicality, players in England are prone to constant injury, rapid fluctuation of form and unguaranteed starting position in the team.

This goes a long way affecting players performance because a ballon d Or candidate must be consistent to win the award atleast for a season; the premier league won't guarantee you that. You might be on top of your game and boom! INJURY and when you reture from injury, you struggle to pick up form.

This is also why players from other leagues find hard to adjust when they get signed to an English team. They might be banging in goals in other leagues and playing like prime Ronadihno however, when they arrive England, they will begin to struggle until some find form while the majority ends up in the bench or gets sold.

It's a tough game in England but only C.Ronaldo has succeeded so far in his earlier days with Man United, NOT modern day arrogant C.Ronaldo.

Lampard came close when he won second best world player the year Ronaldinho won world best player.

Coz they haven't tried enough.
The past two seasons were supposed to be Kelvin De bryne time, but his team fumbled against Chelsea in the final, and the preceding season, they fumbled again against Real Madrid in the semi finals
