Exactly my Question
And why is Mbappe not in the last three

Hate has blinded you guys . What has Mpape done this year ?
Messi will still win it. Copa America has given him the edge . Nothing you guys can do about it.

if I hear say u be Messi fan again
I go fes ooo
I'm a Messi fan100 percent but on this particular award, I give it to Mo Salah. That guy deserve it [/quote]

After the backlash that followed ballon d'or award, they will give this to Lewandowski or Sallah. All these awards are now popularity contest

Nice one Mo Salah. Always representing Africa well. We will be seeing more of you at AFCON.

I’m glad that TikTok has partnered with CAF ahead of 2021 AFCON tournament.

jetwonder:
Mo salah deserve this award!!! #this salah na wow!

no be only wow, na klin

who qualified among the two teams in that picture abeg I wan confirm something

Messi should be third place that's my own

Yureyes:


I tried to ignore the clown that first quoted me, but you? You think you are smart but actually you are dumb.

FIFA is what? World governing body of anything football related. Even club football is subject to FIFA rules and governance. So if you want Messi to win the award because he won Copa America, then you have a problem.

According to FIFA official website, “The best FIFA awards is an award that annually honour the most outstanding members of the world’s most popular sport”. In order words it is an INDIVIDUAL AWARD that honours the most outstanding players in football in general, not the winner of a national team trophy.

Now ask yourself who were the outstanding players in men football in 2021. Ask yourself if Messi was simply outstanding to be guaranteed a place in the top 3. Lewandoski was, Salah was but Messi’s case is arguable and that’s why I said I am not sure if he deserves to be among the top 3

I was simply insinuating that I am not sure if Messi was outstanding as an individual last year to warrant a place in the top 3 and you are quoting me with a long useless post talking about winning a national team trophy.

And just so you know, I am not having to deal with Buhari like you, my PM is Justin Trudeau. Don’t come here throwing that Nigerians voted for Buhari bullshit at me.

If these awards were based strictly on individual performances Messi would have 10 Ballon dor's today.

It is based on both individual and team performance.

And it is not an award for the season (September to December )

It is an award for the whole year (Jan to Dec)

Messi in 2021..

*43 Goals and 18 Assists (bettered only by Lewy and Haaland)
*La Liga Golden Boot.
*Copa del Rey trophy.
*Copa America trophy.
*Copa America Golden Ball.
*Copa America Golden Boot.

Tell me one player with bigger achievements in 2021.

Oya pls summarize Salah's achievements in 2021 for me. I want to check something.

What is Salah even doing on that list?

It's an award for the entire 2021 (January to December) not the last quarter of 2021 (October to December.)

If this award is actually for the entire 2021, I would put the following 5 players before Salah.

Messi
Lewandosky
Mbappe
Benzema
Kante

You see this Copa America we won last year, we will use it to win ANY and EVERYTHING winnable.


Pendu and his fans will cry tire.

dedonfranco:
Lewandowski.

Even Messi Fans knows He deserve it.

Sebi he don win Tiktok player of the year, that one sef don do am.

Tell me one player with bigger achievements in 2021 than that of messi.
Messi Messi Messi Messi Messi Messi Messi

Messi that has just ONE league goal so far this season

Confused people. What exactly did salah achieve last year?

Lewy got this

FIFA playing with fire

What is Messi name doing there




FIFA

fergie001:

I don't think he will win it.....My pick is Lewy.

another lewandowski/ronaldo fan spotted,,,, but I also want him to win it at least to compensate his ballon do'r loss don't see salah coming close

Enoch3721:

Lewandowski/Ronaldo fan spotted, but I also want him to win it

Is your opinion different from mine?

....at least to compensate his ballon do'r loss don't see salah coming close

Nothing like compensate......

Ballon d'Or is for the best player in Europe. Whilst select journalists in the France football magazine L'Equippe vote for the Ballon d'Or; All Captains and Coaches vote for this one except that you can't vote for someone from the same National Team.

This award is for the best men player in the World.

Ballon d'Or is seen as more prestigious because of its history.

Nawa o but I would love to see the guy win a major award soon for the beauty he adds to the game

prekumohtim:


Salah is in top form now , but the award is not given for being in top form now . It simply for last year's (previous ) work . In last year's record , Messi will likely be unbeatable but narrowly Lewan may win , not Salah

No mind me.....I have seen worse though.
Even the great Johan Cruyff questioned some of these things @ a time.

FIFA award, Superior...on paper? Perhaps.

The Ballon d'Or started in 1956, the FIFA awards started in 1991....merged with the Ballon d'Or (2010-2015), then TheBest FIFA awards came to be in 2016.

The history comes with its longevity.

that is y it has been criticised, the organizer should look at the stats and other areas to select d winners by himself or maybe d fifa president but majority votes always comes with favouritism its just inevitable.

Here we go.

When you Nigerians have no point to make you turn to insult but the truth is I'm not surprised anymore I'm sure you taught voting for Buhari would also save you well you have your answer.

So I'm going to ignore you cause that's what I do towards Nigerians these days.

Forget longevity .... fifa has always been the prestigious award ....balon dor only lauded claims when fifa absorbed it in 2010 and called it fifa balon dor... all those awards Ronaldo de Lima, zidane Ronaldinho Rivaldo won , were fifa awards ... dem no dey send balon dor b4 , thats y most people don't even know players like Owen, Shevchenko and Nedved were former winners ... the same time players like zidane Figo and Ronaldinho were winning fifa best ... fifa best is a bigger award cos its selected by team captains and coaches.... that balon dor na rubbish, how can journalists solely determine the best player ??

When Ronaldo was winning Balon D'or, which of una complain whether na journalists or captains dey vote??

Like it or not, Balon D'or was the most prestigious individual award before the emergence of FIFA Best in 1991 and it has overtaken FIFA since their separation in 2016.

When Messi won 2019, you guys said it was rigged.

Didn't FIFA crown him?

Even before the merger, when was the last time FIFA & French Football Magazine produced different winners?

2004 I guess.

FIFA Best was considered bigger because Balon D'or was limited to Europeans and FIFA na football governing body.

When Messi wins FIFA award, una go blame Blatter. When e win Balon D'or, Platini name no go rest.

Neither of them dey head FIFA, UEFA and Balon D'or and Messi still win..... Una especially that lunatic still dey find who to blame.

Fergie, abeg no dey join me and senseless people on this forum.
