      He’s been sh*t in front of goal this season. No doubt he will still win the Ballon d’Or though, because Portugal qualified.
      Messi should have it in the bag this year but you never know

      Messi would have to miss his next 507 chances to have the same conversion rate as the man with the tan

      How the hell has Ronaldo won the Ballon D'or? He's been crap for half the year. Messi has blown him away since the season started.

      The Ballon D'Or has been won by either of these for the past 10 years. I think that is even more of an issue. It's a soap opera created by UEFA to make money. The super teams with their marquee signings win everything, establishing a 'natural' order. People then get to bicker over which one really deserves it.

      Madrid wins, ROnaldo wins, Barcelona wins , Messi wins. In the end Money wins. THeir statistics are phenomenal but that is because the level of investment is  phenomenal and they only play about 2 teams at their level all year. Meanwhile about 10 teams in Europe have about  500 of the most talented players in Europe on the books. Half  the talent is diluted out through loan deals in lesser leagues. Their academies are full of the brightest whom never go on with it, so as to never threaten the status quo. The lower teams have ell their talent stripped as soon as it shows itself.

      Ballon D'Or .... fu&k the Ballon D'Or.

      It's F***ing stupid, I think these idiots that vote are basing it on trophies and the previous season, idiots. It's based on a calender year, isn't it? More the individual performance than trophies, and Messi should have won it 2016 and 2017.

      But why should these guys get it. Personally its a team sport anyway so individual efforts are taken out of context. However, Messi surrounded by the best players in the world and the team performs to his strengths. Ditto Ronaldo. HOw do you assess his individual contribution based on unbelievably skewed statistics.

      They have borrowed Formula 1's MO, the car wins it but the driver gets the accolades. Money wins it and Messi or Ronaldo get the accolades. If it's just about whom deserves it, then they base it on the statistic of which team won as being the only statistic that matters. Which means it is based solely on level of investment i.e. money wins.

      Couldn't agree more, how does one compare Kante to Messi, De Gea to Messi etc, right? But it is what it is, and we have these awards in which it's usually based on stats/performances and mostly in favour of forwards, so therefore, the guy who has scored and assisted the most and performed consistently for the calender year should be winning the prize... Messi!

      Just a desperate desire from FIFA to even up the numbers between the two of them.

      Changes nothing - anybody with eyes can see Messi is different gravy.

      Ronaldo is exceptional, no denying, but the little fella is once in a lifetime.

      When you see Costa sent off, the last thing I’d expect it to have been would be celebrating a goal. I’d have thought it would have been along the lines of assault. His 1st yellow in the game was actually an elbow to the face.
