Messi winning feels a bit off. Yes, I know he won the world cup, but aside from that, he's not really been the player he once was. Haaland, meanwhile, had an absolutely ridiculous season in arguably the hardest league in the world, won the treble, broke virtually every scoring record for a single season we had, and just blew everyone away. Feels wrong that he's not going to win it

Messi did carry that team through the World Cup, which is the greatest prize in football. How he got what he did out of his team mates is crazy, that team on paper wasn’t great, their love and respect for him is mental. He did fine on club level too in a pretty toxic team.

What City did as a team is heroic, at least Haaland was recognised and picked up an award.

Does anyone take this nonsense seriously? One look at the top 10 gks should say all it needs to say. Garbage.

Yeah, I mean Martinez is a decent keeper, but is he really the best in the world?

It is all easy when you fake your revenue.

No Alisson is and he wasnt in the top 10 why? Liverpool had a poor season...he didnt though.

So Cities revenue is real then and they have gotten to where they are through legitimate means?

I don't know, I'm pretty sure you don't either. Stop crying old boy.

It was a rhetorical question.

Messi deserved it for what he did at the WC

Jude will win it next year.

Probably be Ronaldo’s turn again next year.

Deserved to win it, amazing season for PSG on a personal level and dragged that Argentina team to the World Cup and stood out in every single match.

Haaland robbed but as to be expected from this mickey mouse award. So inconsistent with the approach.

Haaland was simply on different levels last year

Wonder how they can shoehorn Messi in next year plying his trade in a league at championship standard at best

I mean 115 charges suggest they arent exactly clean.

Mental to think that the only year you could arguably say he was better was 2008. Messi has simply been on a different planet these last 15 years.

Gz to Messi, fully deserved

How many other players got it for winning the World Cup when messi was having record seasons at Barcelona? I know it’s seen as the pinnacle but world cup football is mickey mouse compared to most leagues or champions league football.

For this year only they have massively over valued the World Cup. How strange.

Indeed. So insonsistent but nostalgia played a big part this year imo. Has been a few hugely questionable winners over the years

But hey ho they won't be able to get away with it next year with him playing in the MLS.
