The fraud has gone on for years. Remember the Sneijder - Messi's case. Where Sneijder was brilliant at the World Cup, I think Semi finals, won a treble with Inter Milan, including the Champions league and was key in all these. Yet they gave best player to Messi.

Remember Ronaldinho in 2006. Won the Champions League and treble with Barcelona with some of the best performances ever seen in football. Then they gave the best player to Canavaro who was not even the best player on the National team.

Saw the same with Ronaldo De Lima's robbery too in 98.

I do not even stress myself with these. Mendy's case is not a debate. He was the best keeper hands down.

There was no tome sneijder deserved to win the ballon d or ,please stop capping

If there was anyone who should win the ballon d or aside Messi 2010 it should be iniesta

So, nobody is saying anything about the corrupt politics that Egypt just played at this time. A whole CAF extended the draw for the World Cup only for Egypt to regain a top 5 ranking and be seeded. While we’re here arguing about messi

Don’t mind them

It’s usually like this anytime Messi takes the award grin

Klop said Afcon is a small competition but here some still tried to tell us that the journalist who questioned Klop didnt understand English......pls can Klop tagged Euro cup small competition?capital NO....rating a player just cos of euro and forgetting that the other is an African,why not champions league both participated in.

Even if Afcon was played this year and Mendy had a great tourney Donaraunma would still been given the best goalkeeper.

Agreed with all you said let's be very honest with ourselves let's keep emotions out of this ...is AFCON not a small tournament ? can you compare AFCON with euros and Copa America grin we still have the woes of poor infrastructure and good sporting facility most Africa country cannot even boast of FIFA approved pitch we can see the rice field and cassava field most of our matches are played on lets me not talk about poor officiating...this is not about klopp alone this is the way most European view this competition. You see the corruption in CAF has lead to zero productivity and retarded sport growth in Africa it such a shame we still don't have world class stadium most of the country even in eastern Europe have world class stadiums �️ not 1 not 2 sef, yet here we still as a normal thing they're even contemplating on playing the AFCON in Qatar, imagine an Africa tournament played outside the continent.

Not earthshaking news by any standard. But with @victorosimhen9 out, could play an important role.
NFF do not expect Rohr to lead @NGSuperEagles to Cameroon, though. Culled from Collin Udoh

The entire thing is so fraudulent, because take out the Euros and Donnaruma had a forgettable year.

Mendy has been pulling out too drawer saves and getting clean sheets the entire year, in all of the tournaments he has participated in.

I ask again, if AFCON had held this year, would Mendy have won the award over Donnaruma?

How can Mendy compete in a tournament he isn't eligible to participate in? The UCL they were both eligible to participate in, did Donnaruma see Mendy's back?

In their respective leagues in Europe, did Donnaruma see Mendy's back?

There is no argument that will justify that nonsense daylight robbery from that popularity poll.
This one na robbery, as dm no nominate Mendy for Balon d' O, I just know say dm dn rob am, and im happy alot of footballers called out the organizers of the award, Donnurumma had 3 clean sheet, made 9 saves and conceded 4 goals in nine appearances in the Euros while mendy had 9 clean sheet, conceded a record 4 goals, made 31 saves in 12 appearances in the champions league.
If na league make ww no even go that side, even as both of them no win title, we know say Mendy stats in the were far better than that of Donnurumma

You dey mind them? Giving some one world best player because he won latin america principal's cup.

Organizing competition every minute like set we used to play when we were younger so they can dash their HEgoat an award.

Blueelf:


To me Copa America is just 1cm above AFCON

Na the same carpentry teams dey there. Tell me any perennial credible threat in COPA America apart from Brazil and Argentina

Even Uruguay has began to decline

At least with AFCON, it's not as easy to predict the Finals

They used that very useless pangolo Copa America to give a short hypocrite an award

Tufia!!

So it was mannequins that Donnarumma had in front of him during the euros. Defense pairing that hadn't conceded a single goal during euro qualifier?

Mendy deserved it no argument.

yinkeys:

Donna is better 50% success rate in saving penalties
Mendy hasn’t really been tested because of good defenders especially in penalties
Go watch Donna’s saves at the Euros & at Milan.
Did you watch the Euros ?
Mendy is hyped because he’s got good players around him.

What criteria are you using for mendy ? I am sure you are using his champions league good performance

Now ask yourself and safari , did Donnaruma participate at the champions league ?
