Madrid's response screams of backroom dealings. Given the nature of the Balon d'Or, clubs/agents aggressively lobby for votes. Why wouldn't they? i It would not be surprising if it turned out they payed for votes, given the financial incentive for winning. It seems to me Madrid had payed for a massive campaign, thought they had guaranteed themselves the awards, and got a shock. Why else would they have scheduled a 5 hour show and prepare a 50 person delegation or whatever it was. You don't do that unless you are sure, and Vinicius' season was just not good enough to justify that. No international success? Less than 30 goals in all competitions? A good season, but not nearly good enough to be a shoe in.

A narrative can be created for nearly any player if you frame their season in the right way. Highlight a few stats, focus on key moments, and suddenly it seems like they had an award-worthy year. With this approach, you could make a case for any player’s season, and it could just as easily be debated as not worthy enough to win. Take Kane’s season for a moment, more goal contributions than matches played, Golden Boot in every tournament that he has played, scored in every knockout round in the Champions League that he has played, but because he didn't have a high-profile moment in a final or a big match, people often overlook the consistency he showed throughout the season. This bias toward memorable moments skews perceptions. We see it all the time-players with a standout moment end up getting more recognition, even if others performed better over the whole season. It’s as if sustained excellence isn’t as valued as those dramatic, one-time moments. In the end, it's often less about the season's merit and player's merit and is more about the narrative that sticks with fans and the media. The more popular you are, more the journalists hear about you and more votes you get.

No he didnt. He was deserving of a spot in the TOTY, but he was not the best player in the world. He somehow won player of the tournament at the EUROS despite Spain playing better without him, and he oversaw a pretty poor season for City. He had a great year, but it defintely feels like he was the "hipsters choice", winning alot of plaudits he didnt really merit.

@@anotherguy3082He was only “hipster choice” cause there was no true outstanding candidate. Reality is if we’re doing it in solely the 1st half the season Bellingham should’ve won the ballondor. And solely the 2nd half of the season Vinicius should’ve won the ballondor. But ballondor is August-June. For those two major candidates not one of them had a e.g Benzema 2022 where from August to May he was always in ballondor conversations/favourite and pretty undeniably the best player in all comps. You may feel Vini should’ve won fair enough, I just don’t think it was a landslide victory for anybody. There were holes in his case too.

a player needs 3 things to win the Balon D'or.. one of them is Fair Play/Class.. I want you to show me a match where Vini hasn't messed up with anyone...(Except the one where Vini gives his water bottle to Kimmich LoL).. Even in the last match while his team was getting trashed by Barca, he was talking about Monday Balon D'or ceremony on the field even though he hasn't even won it.. just imagine where his arrogance would have reached if he ever won this award.. just as Football has no place for racism, it also doesn't have any place for guys like him

The statement from real madrid is truly ridiculous, but at least here in brazil, the discourse been much more about UEFA, france football and actually fifa really not caring and being against Vinicius’ fight against racism in Spain. And it’s real if you think about how european press basically tell him to shut up and dribble, and still complain when he dribbles. Don’t know if you see that as an overreaction, but it’s been the case since some of the neymar finishes in the top 5, that we see ourselves as disrespected because the big european conglomerates think we are too expressive and don’t bow down to disrespect.

Imo, the behaviour of Real Madrid and its fanbase is the only disgrace of this year’s Ballon d’Or. They demand to be respected yet refuse to turn up to the ceremony on the sole basis that none of their players won it, and their fans have effectively been rioting on social media (ironically/stupidly going after basically anyone called Rodrigo that isn’t Rodri himself)

Here is a list (my opinion) of what the Balon Dor would look like if it was fair/fairer (too many things to explain dont make me argue about things that are a given just because i didnt want to write 50 pages of context) 1 - Rodri - individually i do still think he was better and more important to his team its just hard to show because City could win the Prem with their B team at this point 2 - Viny - the best attacker in terms of output for his team who won everything (importance on HIS team) outside of the Spanish Cup but overall not even near top output compared to others even with adjusted minutes 3 - Jude Bellingham - Fantastic start and debut season for club and country but towards the later parts he was really lacking on off the ball play which might have cost him a Euros still clutch from time to time 4 - Harry Kane - Despite not winning anything cause of a broken Bayern side and losing in the final Kane for me was the best performer of the year , most complete in-form striker right now just sucks that he is anti clutch but if we are being honest his teammates also massively failed him from time to time 5 - Lautaro Martinez - Top scorer in the second best League in the world (per Uefa and Opta ) and top scorer in the Copa America , won a domestic double and his confederations trophy by being the main man , an early UCL exit is all he has for wrongs 6 - Alejandro Grimaldo - Euro winner and invincible domestic double and Europa league finalist , lost 1 game all year , was the best performing full back in the world along side his counterpart Frimpong , also insane output as a fullback actually 3 G/A off Vinicius himself AS A FULLBACK 7 - Toni Kroos - Great last season from an individuall and team prespective , Toni pretty much as class as always Germany's defeat is the only reason he isnt higher Anything under these 7 players can be whatever imo these are the only players who were clear cut better than everyone else , shout outs however go to , Salah , Rudiger , F. Valverde , Foden , Palmer , Halaand , Xhaka , Carvajal , Emi Martinez , Calhanoglou , Frimpong , Wirtz , Saliba , Rice in no particular order

Called it, before I watch. Its obvious that the Balond Dor is decided based on what makes for the most narrative, its clearly been made as a kind of marketing tool, maybe it always was but I think the recent controversy surrounding the winners these days is because it isn't quite as unanimous as it was when it was just CR7 and Messi. I wonder how the award will adapt with the growing disillusionment among fans, players and clubs alike.

I don't even think the problem was Rodri winning, but the whole campaign against Vinicius that culminated in the ballon d'or fiasco, you have jornalists not voting for Vini because of "lack of fairplay", when guys like Emi Martinez get praise for being provocative, while the whole reason for this Vinicius backlash is because he gets offended on the pitch and doesn't lower his head, you have jornalists and rival fans calling him a monkey, and he fights back where he can, on the pitch. If Vinicius losing was purely by perfomance, then fine, we can agree to disagree, but being penalized for arbitrary (and sometimes quite racist) reasons, is just quite revolting when you think about it. Also choosing George Weah to give the ballon d'or, a player who has ABSOLUTELY no connection to Rodri, just kind of show how the war between UEFA and Madrid goes both ways. They knew everyone thought Vinicius would win, picked the only african winner of the award with the sole intent to humiliate Vinícius on stage.

Vini Jr. was clearly the best player in the world. He just had a masterclass season in the UCL, La Liga, and Copa del Rey, being the best player in two of these competitions and deciding the most challenging games. Because of his determination to fight against racism, UEFA tried to embarrass and silence him all season long. It's embarrassing to see that almost every opinion about him not deserving the Ballon d'Or was based on his attitude rather than his performance. It's also embarrassing to say that Rodri was the best player of the year when he wasn’t the best player on the Spanish team, in the Euro, in the Premier League, on Man City, or in the UCL. All of those internacional prizes just had to end.
