Mr. African Emotional Zombie, humility is not enough to win awards. You need merit.

I have seen Messi fighting on the pitch & insulting people but never seen Kante do such.
Kante is humbler than Messi yet he didn't win because everyone knows he doesn't deserve it.

Lewandowski outperformed Messi for 2 years now so I really don't know why "humility" is the criteria for winning an award.

Rubbish

You’re just filled with hate

So by your analysis, they are equal abi.
Tell me how did Messi win over someone he was 'equal' to?? Explain that to us.

Because he won something for his country.. Lewa did not!

Lewandowski outperformed Messi in every tournamment they participated in.

He won more titles. He won his league, outscored Messi too.

What else do you want to know?

Are you kid for crying out loud?
When Ronaldo won Euros did Messi participated In Euros? You need malaria medicine

BABANGBALI:
That short man devil will not have peace of mind until he returns that award to its rightful owner

OJEEMAH:
As long as they are still putting on their sentimental lenses, they will never understand why Messi deserved to win.

Always talking shit as if Messi doesn't have the stats and trophies to back his win.

If Messi was a European and he won La liga Top scorer, Copa Del Rey, Euros, Player of the Tournament & Top scorer, would the hypocrite had spew this crap??

When Ronaldo De Lima & Rivaldo won FIFA Best by winning Copa America 97 & 99, it wasn't a 10 teams tournament but anything Messi wins automatically becomes irrelevant..................jokers!!

Messi & Lewy fumbled in the UCL. Messi covered his abysmal performance in UCL with his CA win and performances while Lewy couldn't do same with Poland, knowing its a year for int'l tournaments and it will play a major role in deciding the winner.

Balon D'or should look for a way to present 2020 award to him cos most people dey confuse his 2020 achievements with 2021.

same people that didn't question why Messi finished 5th in 2018 despite having the best individual stats dey complain as if anybody told them the award is for any player that scored the highest number of goals

See 2016 & 2018 stats and Messi lost

Did he win it? No! Then why did he win it?

I thought we were talking about Lewandowski vs Messi?

Have you finally agreed that Lewy was better?

[/s]

Can you remind us what Messi won for his country in 2010 to win Ballon D'Or?

Since country trophies now suddenly is the criterion. Please hurry...

He even countered himself by his own words. He said and I quote:
“This year there’s not much between the two but for me you’ve got to give it to Lewandowski because you’ve got to take the last two years into consideration.

“His standards haven’t dropped, if anything he’s gotten better. It’s not robbery that Messi won it… Messi’s numbers are still incredible.”

He claimed this year there is no much difference between Messi and Lewandoski but he expected the organiser to have taken two years into consideration but painfully the award is just for one year football calendar.
He also went further to say "it's not a robbery that Messi won it because Messi's numbers are still incredible".
With the above it's more of emotional words that he was tired of seeing Messi winning it always and he needed a new face no matter the statistics of Messi.
Penaldo fans please cry less and read the piece very well and make viable conclusion because he jailed the incredibility of Messi but just tired of him winning it not because he doesn't deserve it.

You are a small boy in the game. All you want is the person to score goal because you are protecting your gambling ticket. But I salute your courage to confess that you don't know.


No problem you will grow in the game to understand that the beautiful game did not start and end in who scores the goal. If that is the case only strikers will be winning it. Does it surprise you why Ronaldo hardly celebrates goal with his team mates when the goal was scored by another person? He is gunning for personal glory.




Now check the statistics . Lewa beat Messi to only the number of goals scored and the number of chances he had but don't forget he is a striker. The short man beat him in all other areas. There is a big difference in scoring the goals and making the goals. One man is good in the two.

Case in point

KillIgbohoN0W:
Why not give it to Messi?

I'm sure he has more dribbles completed against EPL teams than Salah. He has more pre assists, touches, through balls, MOTM, Jersey exchanges, social media followers and other useless stats to win this award.

Nonsense.

So now everyone realizes the award lost relevance since 2010.
Imagine last year the best coach was given to Jurgen Klopp, and a Bayern coach who cleared everything was snubbed, yet you all didn't see that. When Pep cleared it all, he was clearly given, but when Bayern equals the record their coach was snubbed.
It's just bad enough knowing Messi receives these award when he clearly didn't deserve it in 2010, even 2019, and now this.
Clueless football fans will bring CR7 to the topic, but his 2013 award that he didnt deserve, he paid for it with the 2019 that he deserved which he didn't win.
That of Leo, please don't come with goals goals goals, as you clearly don't have an idea of football if you keep bringing the Eibar man here.
Football fans argued he won't do well outside Barca, just imagine how he has made them feel right with the PSG show now, just imagine.
My take is, i think all Bayern players should boycott that award for life, the club deserves better respect.

Don't misinform young people here....

Ronaldo didn't win Ballon d'Or just because he won Copa America;

Ronaldo won the UEFA Cup Winners Cup, scoring in the final.
Ronaldo won the European Golden Shoe
Ronaldo won the Copa del Rey
Ronaldo won the Spanish Super Cup
Ronaldo scored 47 goals in 49 games
Ronaldo had the highest sign-on fee @ the time.

All this in 1997.

Glad you have lent your voice on this one sir
What of in 1999 Manchester united won the treble,Beckham was in the form of his life but Rivaldo won it what do u have to say ?

Stop talking ignorantly

It was an election with over 100 FIFA countries represented

Nigeria was represented in the voting by manager Gernot Rohr, Super Eagles captain Ahmed Musa and Samm Audu who was nominated to represent Nigerian journalists by the Nigeria Football Federation.

Day light robbery didn't just start today and no signs it's gonna stop any time soon except a new generation of youths flog these dirty old bastard's off the chair, we'll continue to wail

UEFA Cup is not UEFA Champions League. I never knew UEFA Cup is/was a requirement for Balon D'or??

His Copa America Victory played a crucial role not the UEFA Cup.
Would you have accepted Messi as a worthy winner, if he had won the Europa League??

what exact is wrong with winning COPA AMERICA??

why are you guys trying so hard to belittle the tournaments cos its played by fewer teams or cos Messi won it??
As far as i can remember, this is more like the first time i am seeing this level of criticism about COPA AMERICA.
Did you guys know the tournament is lowly rated when you asked Messi to win an Int'l tournament before he can be considered one of the greats like Ronaldo, Pele & Maradona?

South America is made up of 12 countries and i don't think its anybody's fault. it is what it is.

The number of games it takes to win Euro is still the same number of games it takes to win CA....... Why the disparity??

How about Rivaldo that defeated Beckham that won treble??

Something has to be done with the rate at which these pathetic and biased mods have been pushing anti-messi topics to the front page

Messi won his 7th,they should deal with it... Why all these he doesn't deserve it, lewy was cheated, ballon d or has lost it's credibility

Pushing a false narrative to the front page

It's really unfortunate for a forum as big as nairaland to be involved in such

Ever since he won, I am yet to see a thread created just to give honour to whom honour is due

Just create an anti-messi thread and you hit frontpage

It's incredibly ridiculous

All the anti-messi campaigns here did not prevent him from winning his 7th

forgiveness:



Did he win it? No! Then why did he win it?

That's an illustration meanwhile he won Copa America and Copa America is Euro equivalent

I hope footballers boycott this Award ceremony in the future.

Why not completely boycott football? Stop being a fan of Chelsea nd stop anything related to football, that's wen we will take u guys serious.

It has been given already so why all these unnecessary rants
We all know it belongs to Lewi but at times favoritism comes into play that's life for you. Many of us have lost so many things even when we merit it due to this favoritism and other factors. Nature have its way of doing things, Even God have his way of doing things e.g Jacob inherit his father's blessing instead of Esau by cheating and God still walk with him.

as it for once crossed you guys mind that may be this is as you say it "Nature's way" for the disrespect Messi suffered in 2018 or na only Messi case Nature get for file??
