I’m trying to be completely objective if the fanboys can please try to do the same. In 2020 and 2021 lewandowski was the best player in the world winning the sextuple one year and then breaking a 40 year old bundesliga scoring record. I get the award was cancelled in 2020 but for 21 the narrative was messi finally got his international trophy so he has to win balon d’or. But Argentina literally have the most copa Americas in history they won it 14 times before messi, he had 4 tries in 6 years to win it. 15, 16, 19, and 21. So was it really that impressive that he won a tournament that him not winning up to that point was literally a failure because of how good Argentina were historically? Im not trying to argue about who the best player ever is or what he’s done in the past. Can someone just objectively tell me that it was impressive and not just journalists being emotional and voting for their favorite player and the narrative instead of the actual best player?

    In WC tho, Di Maria was amazing but you’re really discrediting Messi. Secondly that’s not a perfect correlation when you say Di Maria, a winger got off and they scored goal, that’s more of a defense thingy.

    Yes di Maria was like the bestest player while he was on pitch tho.

    Messi did amazing things later too.

      I’d love to carry on this convo but that other guy who was replying to every post of mine & now claimed he’s blocked me is a freak. He’s now sending me personal messages threatening me & has somehow found out my name, guessing he has doxed me but can’t be sure

      I wish you good fortune. Shame it had to end this way.
