Still nonsense....he doesn't even deserve to be among top 30... he did nothing last year.... Rodri, debryna , halaand , vinicious , Bellingham, salah , saka , odengaard , son , alvarez , mbappe , kane , oshimhen, leao, karashnikrevas, Gavi , Gudungan, benzema , martinez( inter) , bernando silva , grealish, Ronaldo, all performed better last year

Bla bla bla... Tell me abt their national team games last year...
U think it is all abt club club club...

Combine their club n national games, then retweet.

Beverlyjean:
Halaand ruled 2023...but they still gave it to someone that did nothing significant last year....

Ruled, ruler, measurement tape.

It was voted for by coaches, captains journalists et al.
Messi n Haaland got equal votes... Wen this happens, according to FIFA, a tie breaker is used.
The person with d higher votes from his fellow footballers (in this case captains) wins.
It shows that his fellow players kno who their king is..

pls help check on Ronaldo n his sister.

Actually, the ship belongs to Iran. America stole it under d pretext of sanctions, renamed it and then started using it.
Iran just took back their stolen property.
America doesn't own planet earth.

wat of the female journalist they killed some years back?
What of all the journalists they have killed so far, from different tv outlets?
Jews are recorded liars..
Propagandists too....
These guys were recorded in the Bible to have paid people to go about spreading lies that Jesus Christ was stolen from the grave at night, even with all d guards..

Messi shud be careful. These lyrics from Nas frm his song, ' my bible' comes to mind:

Speak gospel for the next generation
You can have it all, just don't side with Satan
I seen that take down most of the greatest
Hotel suites, Hollywood stars hangin'
The other side of what you think is fly
Your jewelry could be cursed and so can your ride
Let that soak in your mind, Suburbans and Beamers
Shot up with Ninas, how to stop a young genius




Btw, 'The suburbans and beamers' part refers to the 2 types of vehicles that Tupac and Biggie were in when they were riddled with bullets

U actually know ur Hip hop n d deep inspirations between the lyrics.

Kudos mahn

JerryJJZ:
Or else we choose to deceive ourselves, Messi didnt deserve the award. Does that means having a decent World Cup campaign automatically gives you the most coveted individual award? Nah. Just Nah. A clear robbery for Haaland. No justification for it. A tremble goes off the table. From the beginning of that World Cup campaign, it was soooo evident it was a Messi show. It was too obvious. Rubbish!

How many trophies do u know Messi won last season?
He won more trophies than Haaland...
For club n country...
Messi is the only player in history to win trophies with 3 different teams in a season.
Verify before you talk.
Why the world cup is mentioned most is because it is the ultimate.

Beverlyjean:
No one can honestly say Messi was the best player in the last 12 months . A 7 game tournament is not the only football that was played in the past 12 months ... If they say it's all about the world cup, how come mbappe dint finish second ... Mbappe had a better tournament than Messi....was top scorer with 8goals ( 2 penalties included) ... anyone that understands this game knows its all propaganda...

2010 Spain won their first ever world cup , they dint remember that it was all about the world cup . They still gave it to Messi, saying he won la liga and was top scorer in Europe and champions league ... 12 yrs later , halaand wins mancitys first ever treble , top scorer in the league with a new record , top scorer in champions league, top scorer in Europe and they still give Messi that PSG fans booed out of France for failing to help the team pass round of 16 in CL....

As someone rightly said, if halaand won the world cup and Messi won the champions league and ligue1 with psg and was top scorer in both competitions, they will still give Messi...

Fifa and the balon dor are just Messi lickers .... no football player in history has ever received 10% pampering Messi has received in his career ...

Suddenly winning the world cup gets u the balon dor... but it dint in 2010, 2014 and 2018... Messi wins the WC and it becomes a criteria again... if u condemn INEC and support this nonsense award , then u are a certified hypocrite

At least the world knows that Ronaldo won balon d'or with a trophiless season.
the only player in history to get it for free.
Sepp Blatter arranged it for him.
If u don't kno, go n read it up.

As per Messi

People only talk of the world cup cos it is d biggest, but it wasn't the only thing..
Have you seen the stats between the three?
The whole stats, things the voters considered?

Don't just open ur mouth to wail, educate urself.
I know it's not easy, but try.

When you talk abt Spain n Germany, who where the stand out players who actually tore football that year?

Name one, then drop their stat.
Messi's worst season is plenty footballers dream.
Check the stats.
If u r lazy to research, use Chatgpt.

Messi did well in PSG last season.. His stats speak well.
Contribution for clubs n country, Messi did great.

Do u know his name was among the finalist for top scorers award, which Haaland rightly won?

Don't just talk, inform urself first.

Ade1177:



Mbappe and Haaland had a better year

Pls

The name Messi has built over the years is the reason

All the stats you posted above is average

If haaland won the World Cup

And Messi didn't win world cup but won the treble and is the highest goal scorer

Messi would win it

Ask ur question properly
If Haaland won the world cup, became the best player in the world cup, then won a couple more trophies at club level, then gave a new team another trophy while being a key player......

Frame ur question like that, then I will answer you.
I will tell u wat u have been dying to hear.

LesbianBoy:
This award has lost its value after Ronaldo award was given to modric in 2018. Since then the award no sweet again jor.

They have made it obvious that they love Messi. Even if another player achieve so much, once Messi achieve a little fiammm they will give it to him.

Wetin Ronaldo win dt year wen Modric nor win?
Modric went on to be d best player in the World Cup while Ronaldo fell by d way...

It is not just by goals..
Thank God that for some years now, they have now separated highest goal scorer from overall best...

Ade1177:


He won Nada in inter miami
Stop the cap
He won nothing tangible in psg

He won everything at BARCELONA

the ballon dor he is given yesterday is for his PERFORMANCE IN THE WORLD CUP AND WINNING IT

Not for Psg or Inter miami

If not for the world cup
Haaland deserves this FOR THE FULL YEAR not a month tournament

Eya... Sorry o

See as u dey cap rust...

In PSG
In 41 games
20 goals, 21 assists..
41 goal contribution.
He won 2 trophies, won plenty man of d match even in games he did not score..

In Inter Miami
14 games
He score 11 goals..
1 trophy
Highest goal scorer award

In Argentina
One World cup
2nd highest goal scorer
best player of the tournament...

And before u talk trash my boy...
The world cup is the ultimate for so many reasons...
Qualifiers et al
Everything abt world cup na blast.
Qualifying is not easy, ask Nigeria n Norway.

If u wana argue, use small brain..
Even in the full year...
How many games did Haaland play?
How many did Messi play?

Who was better?
Highest goal scorer is different from overall best..

yinkeys:

Lewandoski was robbed in 2021
T. Henry was robbed in 2003
Halaand unlucky 2023

2021 nor be 2020..
In 2020 Lewa won everything in club
unfortunately they cancelled balon d'or due to covid
but he won every other award that was hosted..

in 2021
he won only in Germany
Messi won in club and country...

Mind u, this was 2021 not 2020

In 2021, both of them went for continental competitions

Lewandoski could not bring Poland from the group stage in the Euros,
Messi took Argentina to glory, with highest goal, n highest assist... Winning the best player too..

So u mean they should have robbed Messi out of pity for Lewandoski?

Burob:
See you exhibiting your ignorance with pride, Ballon d’or is for achievements in Europe O.

What did PSG do in Europe last season, how many goals messi score for champions league?

Halaand of Man City should win it, League Title, breaking the scoring record in the Premiership, & winning the Champions league.

Manchester City's Erling Haaland topped the UCL top-scorers list last season. He netted 12 goals in 11 appearances to win the UCL 2022-23 Golden Boot.

See the way you dey disgrace your self with full voltage...

Simply read n research d balon d'or..
If possible, use chatgpt
Ask it questions and it will enlighten you.

Balon d'or used to be for only players who are Europeans, but it wasn't for only their achievement alone in Europe.
Very many years ago, if u are not from Europe, you wont be nominated.
But that has changed..
Brazilians, Africans etc have been nominated...

Talking of European achievement...
2006, Ronaldinho won Champions League, but an Italian who won the world cup n some other things won d Balon d'or..

mind you, Ronaldinho won it before that year.

Educate yourself before you speak on any issue.
The reason why nominees mostly come from Europe is becos it is assumed that their league is more consistent.

But in Messi's case, he played a complete season in Europe, won trophies with PSG last season, then won with Argentina.

After the season in consideration, he went to usa, completed the season with them and was a star as they won a first trophy..

School nor be scam o.

Burob:
This Oblivious Children, The Ballon Dior is for achievement in Europe.

World Cup is not factored into it, that will come when FIFA does their world best.

Before u talk, listen...
Inform urself, so u talk well.

Did they tell u Balon d'or is UEFA best?
Na wetin d organisers tell u abi? Mr Sabinus

Messi won more than 3 trophies last season..
He won with 3 different teams, from 3 different continents.
Argentina, PSG, Inter Miami.
He won in Qatar, in Asia
PSG in France, Europe
Inter Miami in USA, North America...
The only player in history to do that.
Mark you, World Cup is the biggest football fiesta.

Messi didn't just win, he was outstanding...
His goals and assist contribution soeaks volumes too.

There is a big difference between a goal scorer, and the best player.

Kapish?

I was telling someone on this sport thread that man city ought to be grateful to these top 4 players for the treble win, they are KDB, Gundogan, Rodri and Bernardo Silva, I will even count more like akanji, Ruben dias and foden before mentioning Haaland. If haaland is that spectacular, why didn't he win bundesliga for Dortmund while at Germany?


Haaland even played 8 finals and semi finals, 0 goals 0 assists to him.

Those supporters r mostly Man Utd fans, or mediocres.
All they know is to check livescore to see who scored.

They forget that most times, a player who didn't score might end up being man of the match.

If Haaland is so good he can qualify his country for at least one international competition.

Without Haaland, City won the league without a striker.

mayor1814:
OP tapnaldo fans go cry blood this evening wen THE BEST FOOTBALL PLAYER OF ALL TIME will be crowned as the ballon dor winner for the 8th time. Just dey watch

Don't mind them...
To think they compare Haaland to Messi..
Haaland won 3 trophies
Messi won more

Messi is the only player in history who won trophies with 3 different teams in a season.. Argentina, PSG, Inter Miami

And across 3 different continents, Qatar in Asia, PSG in Europe, Inter Miami in North America.
Messi didn't just win, he was outstanding too.
His goals n assists were great too.

There is difference between being a goal scorer and the best player.

Messi did not just win, he was also very outstanding, he was focal, and in most, he was the outright best player.

Sugar cane nor be bamboo.. It's not by height.. Not by social media..
But by sweat on the pitch..

CoronaVirusPro:
FIFA and Adidas already bought award for Messi

Too late...

Which bought?
On a serious note, how many trophies did each of them win last season?
Messi won with three different teams : Argentina, PSG, Inter Miami..
From 3 different continents even.

Messi won more trophies than Haaland too. Go n verify.

Messi was a star player in all of them

Haaland only scored more goals..
Unfortunately, Messi's goal record was impressive too.
Before u consider assists n playmaking.

Highest goal scorer isn't best player.

King of d pitch... Football lord

Messi is the football standard.. They compare every other footballer to him!

only footballer who shines in every tournament.... Club n national

The greatest ever!

Lionel Messi is the only player in history to win trophies in 3 diferent teams in a season, and he accomplished the feat in 3 different continents.
After winning the greatest trophy in Qatar, right in Asia, the world cup winner went on to win multiple trophies in France which is in Europe before heading to North America to win yet another one, all in a season.

His goal and assist ratio for the season is also very impressive, and his style of delivery can never be matched.

After all these, it is safe to say every other footballer envies him.. There are those who have tried to use the media to try to compare them with the football god, but to no avail..

Someone ones said he needed more balon d'or than Messi, but when Messi won more, the person claimed golden boot is better cos it is not won by vote..

Messi went on to win more golden boots..

heeheheh

Messi gave him an assignment by scoring almost a hundred goals in a year, and for so many years, the other guy hasn't matched it, even though goal scoring is the only relevant thing he does in football.

Messi is the only footballer dead or alive to win sports person of d year... He even did it twice.

Odogwu makes things so easy to the extent people now scream scripted, without checking.

All hail d King!

Before this war, Israel was a weapon exporter.
Wait and let the war start, you will see who is who.

Just relax
Wen kasala burst u go know say sugar cane nor be bamboo..

U guys don't understand one thing...
US n France have understood it d hard way, n secretly they are being cautious..

US has bases world wide, but after Afghanistan, they kno they can be evicted..
Same with France... Africa has shown them shege..

Now if there is a big crises, countries will evict US troops.
balieve that..
They will abandon many things even, cos the time will be short.
NATO forces will lose bases outside many European nations.

Now transporting troops n weapons from America will take time n more money....

France no longer has d power to call up African soldiers from countries they colonized.. That clause in the independence agreement has be torn..

As oer Israel, they are not d only weapons exporters in d middle east.. Iran dey..
So relax, nor be dem sabi pass.

Everything na hype..
