2010:
- Messi 60 G/A
- Xavi & Iniesta: World Cup Winners
- Ballon D’or Winner: Messi
2023:
- Haaland: 71 G/A + Treble
- Messi: World Cup Winner
- Ballon D’or Winner: Messi
I always insisted that Messi deserved 2010 Ballon D’or but at this point it’s a joke. Haaland deserved this one. Better numbers than Messi during the 2022/2023 season but they give it to Messi for a 7 games display when they got 5 penalties in 7 games
UCLs since 2015: zero
Ballon D’Ors since 2015: three
It’s been eight years folks. One actual trophy in eight fucking years gets him three D’Ors.
