They should just have this award and that's it. I don't see the point of having that Fifa award as well. The same player usually wins both anyway.

Subscriber CaaC (John)+ Posted October 21, 2019 Subscriber Share Posted October 21, 2019 17:38 Get Involved #bbcfootball or text 81111 (UK only) Cam wild: Ronaldo shouldn't be anywhere near the top 3 in the Ballon d'Or this year. 5th top scorer in Serie A, 6th top assists, couldn't get past the quarter-finals of Champions League. If he gets near the top three it's for no other reason than his name. @Teso dos Bichos your thoughts, good be right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smiley Culture Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 Fuck me, they release the nominees in batches? How tedious and unnecessary. Does anyone actually give a flying one about this sort of thing? Didn’t we have these awards last month, anyway? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True Blue Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 Agreed on Ronaldo, think he is one of the best to play the game. However shouldn't be anywhere near the top three spots for last seasons efforts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirBalon Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 Marcelo HAS to end up winning one for god's sake! He's managed to make that FIFA XI for god knows how long (even this year, while injured much of the season and Real capitulating on all fronts) while being totally mediocre. I vote for MARCELO... Let's start the campaign rolling! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carnivore Chris Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 Messi should walk it if we are being honest. Van Dijk is class and you don't get many defenders like him in this day and age but no defender should be winning this when an attacking player plays to the level that Messi has over the year.

Teso dos Bichos Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 Vidal was the only player that really tried at Anfield... no way Ronaldo would let such lead at home go to waste without putting up a decent fight. Messi is a victim of his own success and he had FAILED the last few years in the CL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do we put emphasis on the attacker every single year though? When he’s played to a defensive level like he has and assisted to its highest points tally ever (only to be beaten by billion dollar City) and a Champions League?

Dr. Gonzo Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 Since he didn't get nominated, I think whoevers in charge of this award should pay proper respects to him and rename the award for a true legend of the game.
