Didn’t Arsenal get knocked out in the group stage the year Nedved won?

That 20 goal 20 assist thing is overblown. It didn’t accomplish much for Arsenal at the end of the day.

If anything, Henry likely had a better shot when they gave it to Shevchenko.

For some reason people like to fluff Real Madrid because of the Euro league stuff, but seriously. Fuck that club and all of their supporters. To not show up to the event after winning the team award means they shouldn’t be considered for it in the future. That is the epitome of a whiny, shitbag club. And it looks very poor among Vinicius in the midst of all the supposed racism he receives.

Fuck Rodri and fuck City, fucking hate those cunts
I dislike City with a passion, but Rodri is class on and off the field.

They became so entitled because the two Spanish giants became so used to winning the Ballon d'Or, so they probably took it as a given they'd win it again.

Can hope Real Madrid players won't be possible for election in the coming 2-3 years, only way to show these cunts their actions have consequenses.

Was a rather small time and pathetic gesture by Madrid. I'm sure they feel this is related to ESL some way, rather than just differing opinions. Someone had the audacity to not fondle their balls as is the norm? Shocking!

Remember this lovely moment... Gigi getting the keeper of the year award in 2017 and tending goal between these two schmucks?

I read today that Vini has already been planning a big Ballon d'or winning party and was about to gift every friend there a special rolex.
That makes their (Vini, RM, Brazil) crying much funnier than it already is:lol:

And kudos to Rodri, he was my favourite since Euro finals.

I think this is the driver of this whole thing, they must've had some unofficial guarantees from somewhere that he was winning it. Either that or they simply thought the Madrid/Brazil PR campaign was going to be insurmountable for anyone.

I wouldn't have complained if Vinicius Jr had won it, he would have been worthy, but I don't understand this mindset like he had some divine right.

Rio Ferdinand et al already crowned him months ago , talk about putting the the cart before the horse.

I really don't understand the controversy at all. I thought the football world was pretty much in agreement that whoever did the best out of Spain/England/Brazil at their respective international tournaments, the winner would be either Rodri/Bellingham/Vini.

Vini shit the bed when playing for Brazil.

How the fuck can Real Madrid have a victim mentality? Fucking embarrassing. More embarrassing than getting done by a 17 year old who pointed at his braces after scoring at the Santiago Bernabéu.
