Deserved. If he is kept healthy I’m sure next year the Balon d’Or should be his.
🔎🔎looking for all the r/soccer geniuses who complained endlessly about how overrated this kid was on every highlight of his that got posted. where did they go???
Well, he’ll probably also winvthe Ballon D’or if he continues scoring like that.
Pedri>Bellingham is gonna be the new Dembele>Mbappe
What an awful comment
Even more hilarious, they say Gabi>Bellingham. At least Pedri has the football to back it up.
Was rooting for Musiala. But clearly, this season dominates the previous one in voting. Congratulations to the fans and media, I guess.
Should be unanimous
depends if it’s for the year 2023 or the season 2022/23. If it’s the former I would agree. If it’s the latter I would disagree. Even Bellingham winning shouldn’t be uncontroversial for the 2022/23 season even if it isn’t undeserved
this is less surprising than Messi winning the balon dor
There’s a whole campaign against Messi’s balon dor by a certain fanbase
Or just people who find it unfair to Haaland? He’s only getting it because it’s him lol, any other player in his place (except ronaldo maybe) with the same stats and he 100% doesn’t get it over haaland
Modric won in 2018 for coming second in WC over Ronaldo. Messi not only won the world cup, he won the cup as the best player of the tournament. Haaland was absent in the big games of the man city UCL win but Messi was motm of every game outside the group stage.
People suddenly started criticizing world cup like crazy since Messi won it as if it isn’t the most prestigious award for any nation and the most sought after by players. To win the award as the best player and complete the year with highest g+a is always enough for a balloon d’Or
Surprising they didn’t give this one to Messi too
