it’s so crazy that modric has a ballon d’or and iniesta/xavi doesnt have one. how many players did messi/ronaldo ‘rob’ of having won the ballon d’or? (maybe prevent is the better word, not rob)
The Frenchman Luka Modric
I still don’t know how Modric won the 2018 Ballon D’or. He was not the best player in the world that year lol.
Modric deserved it for his career and for carrying Croatia to a world cup final. Only Cristiano getting a Balon d’Or in that STACKED Real Madrid squad that won five UCLs would have been a travesty. I sincerely don’t get why Reddit is so annoyed by Modric getting a Balon d’Or, seems to be a “stats” thing.
W Modrić
It’s crazy that Cristiano Ronaldo won the Ballon D’or in 2014 despite Portugal getting knocked out in the group stage
But but messi is going to win it this year
