Ditch Diaz and give Messi a sympathy spot
Bet West Ham wish they had put a Ballon d'Or clause in the contract when they sold Haller.
Give it to haller
Messi and Ronaldo’s careers have been insane. 15+ years at the very top.

Haller is on it
That means that the judges only watch the CL highlights.

Fair play Haller.
Benzema will get it surely

Diaz, Mahrez and Nunez?
Give me a bloody break. Decent players like, but nominated for the Balon D'Or?

It’s a 30 man shortlist. It’s filled with good players who had good seasons. It’s the nature of such a long list of nominations. Same complaint is made every year.
It’s an acknowledgment for their success. However, obviously most of them aren’t getting near the award.
Did Foden have a good season last year?
Nunez with his zero goals for Uruguay isn't making that list or the backup 30 if he's still at Benfica.
He did well in the Eredivisie. I would say that they have gone for players who have been consistent in their performances at their positions.Haller is on it
That means that the judges only watch the CL highlights.
The main controversy here should be that Muller is missing, not that Messi is.
Surely it has to be Benzema?
Benzema or Lewa, but Benzema will probably win it because he won the CL.
Ronaldo is the most consistent footballer ever.
It’s an imperfect list. I agree.
I presume his goals for Benfica are the reason he’s on the list rather than scoring in the Community Shield.
Benzema should win it, and deservedly so, but the difference between him and others isn't as big as some people think.
If Marquinhos and Donnarumma didn't have their brainfarts, nobody would have him as the favourite.

No need for nominees this year.
Everyone knows its the year of the Mctominator.
But seriously, Benzema has this won.

Also because he was the best player on the planet.
If Elanga tracked back Utd would have won the UCL.
Beautiful deduction ability on display
Is Courtois in with a shout ?
Played as if he was, which is what matters. I think it's a lock and it's well-deserved. Leading Madrid to the league and UCL double is something they've only done once before (in 2017). His overall play was outstanding and came up big in pretty much every important match they had.
Yeah they just pad it out with lots of players to try and get as many people talking about it, who support different clubs, as possible. I wish they just had a 6 person shortlist, done.
Well I would still stay he and Lewa are about on the same level, but he definitely won the bigger trophy which at least in the part always seemed to be a deciding factor as well.
If you acknowledge that PSG blew that match more than Real won it, then by extension you have to acknowledge that Benzema's Ballon D'Or case rests on that.
This is not the "I have the crystal ball that sees alternate universes" kind of statement.
If I said the same stuff about 2018 CL final and Karius' blunders, would you also react like that? I think we can say without the shadow of a doubt, that those blunders skewed the result in a major way. Same as Marquinhos and Donnarumma ones.
It's something too obvious that it ain't even worth mentioning. It just seemed needless. Benzema will win it and that will be entirely down to him. He can only control his performances
Goals doesn't equal a good performance. Haller scored a lot, but missed a lot more sitters and didn't play well most matches. That's what i meant by only watching the highlights. Haller only played 1, maybe 2 good matches all season.
They got balls putting Haller in there.
Too soon
