lexy2014: Stop being sentimental dude, there will always be something or someone below on the pecking order. nations cup is below and Africa is. And is no one’s fault but ours. Considering everything, Euro and Nations cup are so far apart, the quality of the game, the best players in the world, the coverage, budget etc. I mean even you would rather watch Portugal vs Italy as opposed to Senegal Vs Algeria or something That said, while winning the nations cup might not have the same effect as winning the Euros. I do think if mendy does win nations cup next year and puts up some spectacular performances at the World Cup, he’d clinch it Let’s some playing victim and be honest. Being named the best player at a tournament like the Euros where people like Ronaldo, Benzema, lewandowski, Kanye, Jorginho played and coming 10th on the Ballon D’or?? Come on! Be objective. It was a tight race but Donna had the edge any time any day. 1 Like |

Carlyboi:first of all lewandowski out scored Messi last season and is doing the same this season also. He also won the bundesliga and dfb pokal, this two trophies are more impressive than what Messi won, cus the said Copa America is one of the easiest to win. Also if it's by winning Copa America that makes messi win the ballon D' or then Ronaldo was rubbed cus he won the euros and nations league but didn't win the ballon D'or. The truth is that Lewandowski deserves it more even jorginho deserves it more given that it's not only strikers that play football or should win all the glamorous awards in football. Personally I think that award should be cancelled cus it promotes bias and racism. 1 Like |

lexy2014: He would have won cause he also had the champions league. No doubt. I also think Mendy would have won even without the nations league this year if Donna wasn’t named player of the tournament at euros (it’s a rare achievement for a goalkeeper). with dramatic saves at the final winning Italy the cup after a ridiculous Jorginho penalty , those little moments are much more than just simply “helping your country with a cup” Again, well deserved for Dona. We saw from Modric’s 2018. That Ballon D’or holds national performances to higher regard than Club. It is what is. |

Was Lewandoski also snubbed because he's African? I don't think this has anything to do with race. The journalists drank ogogoro before voting, and this is the end result. |

temmypotter: you still dont understand the question i asked u. dont u undrstand the meaning of "tables being turned"? u gave this as the criteria as to why donaruma bested mendy in d awards: Donarruma was named player of the tournament in a tournament like the euros after singlehandedly winning it for italy with some mad saves , omor that's a huge feat, forget! my question is if the tables were turned with donaruma held mendys stats with mendy doing d above as mentioned by u in an african cup of nations, would he have won donaruma at ballon d'or? |

oakinshield: So lewandowski who plays in the bundesliga and purely as a ST/CF compared to Messi an AM/FW isn’t supposed to score more goals?not to talk how stacked the Bayern team is and the competitiveness of the league’s they both play in. How is the DFB pokal bigger than the kings Cup and bundesliga bigger than Copa America an international competition?oh I forgot cos it’s not the European championship? Lastly Messi won The Pichichi and the Copa MVP as well even if you wanna talk bout goals or individual awards they won bar BD’or so on what grounds has he blown Messi achievements away European golden shoe and For bundesliga? Pls,people should be a lil objective in your arguments inasmuch as it would be nice to see lewandowski win it..which he should have won if it was held in 2020 for this year he’s not head and shoulders above everyone else...The Ballon D’or organizers should have been called out for not staging one last year instead crying foul and expecting some compensation for him this season.The real Ronaldo and Zizou are my fave players of all time,not a Barcelona or PSG fan not crazy bout Messi I just appreciate his amazing football talents...so if you wanna quote me...take your time to read that part. I see giving Messi the award a matter of preference by the organizers but y’all stop the robbery bullshit pls. |

Kriss216:Funny thing is Mendy is French. He was born and bred in France but chose to play for Senegal, his mother's country. France Football decided to pick an Italian ahead of their own citizen who's better cos of nationality and race, quite unfortunate. |

Mendy truly deserves that award. |
Re: Evra claims Edouard Mendy Was Snubbed For The Yashin Trophy Because he's African by Sheggy13(m): 3:17pm On Dec 01, 2021 |
Evra wouldn't have condemned the Balon d'Or given to Messi if they had given it to his buddy, Cristiano Ronaldo instead even though Ronaldo should not even be mentioned in the top 5. That's the bias and sentimental point of view of most of these people condemning the Balon d'Or, not because they rate and like Lewandowski that much but they are just CR7 fan boys and girls. |

Klchnjoku: Seriously it makes me laugh when Africans keep whining and whining like this, because this is just the blowback of ineptitudes that envelopes Africa. The question you should ask is "why will a white man create a prestigious award to be given to an African man? when you answer this truthfully there lies in the answer to all these cry cry baby racism shout. I mean it is natural for people to do the best for themselves that is self-preservation. The truth is everything a white man does is for the benefits of WHITES FIRST before any other thing if Africans are so much pained let everyone come back and develop football here and if it gets advanced to an extent that Whites coming to play their best football here, we can create an award and give only to ourselves and you will see equality, until that is done, The black man will keep getting the shorter stick of the bargain, In years to come nobody will remember who got cheated because posterity will only favour the winners not some bullshit story about cheating, Donarruma will be remembered for the award in years and if Mendy fails to get another good season e don be for him. My point is Africans should shut up and be taking scrubs until we get sense and look home and develop here everything the white man throw at us we should happily assimilate and absorb it like that with a heavy Thank sir. This is not only applicable to sports but all other areas of life, Medicine, Education, politics. health etc just name it. So my guy no need for this whining |

Why is he trying so hard to associate with Africa, even though he was born in Senegal, he made a choice to play for France. If you need a punditry job during next year's AFCON, just ask nicely and stop being a joke all over Instagram. |

To be Honest Edouard Mendy is the better keeper by miles, however when it comes to which keeper has a direct effect on the game, Donnaruma comes up... how you may ask? So Donnaruma is a modern day Sweeper Keeper, while Mendy is a traditional keeper with acrobatic traits. The thing with Sweeper keepers is they also contribute directly to defensive actions by dictating defensive patterns, which Donnaruma was constantly doing in the Italian team (Chiellini, Spinazola and Bonnuci were also very good so it made Donnaruma's coordinations very obvious). Donnaruma is particularly good at breaking crosses. Now Mendy does not do all that defensive coordination but, Mendy will most likely give you a clean sheet with his insane save rate. a 1V1 with Mendy is most likely going to end up with a save. However here's the thing if Mendy is in a team with poor scorers, he may help defend the team to the end, but not help them win. Donnaruma on the other hand can contribute to a team winning even with poor scorers, by influencing an aspect of the game, such as making key passes, or breaking a strategy by rearranging the backline or pushing a highline to counter a press by coming out. So if you ask me which of the goalkeepers influences a game most, it's Donnaruma by a mile, but which keeper has a higher save rate it's Mendy. Donnaruma was also solely responsible for Italy winning the Euros, however I can't say the same for Mendy in the champions league because he had a man like Ngolo Kante doing divine things. Check their stats.

Africans need to begin to spend to uniquely make Africa African again. This time in such a way to attract respect and boundaries, the right kind of fear, too But they are borrowing, piling up debts next two generations must clear, fighting corrupt democrats only to turn out dictators, evil and senile, amassing wealth in uniforms and the ceremonial OAU and whatever ones exist are just there for camaraderie and pic album compilations in hallowed chambers. Evra does have a point. |
