Balloon D'Or bollocks

Post by Nos89 »

Not surprisingly it went to a Real Madrid player. It's staggering to think the last Premier League player to receive this accolade was Ronaldo in 2008. Still grates me that Pavel Nedved ( who is he, some may ask) received it ahead of Henry in 2004, when he was by far the best player in the world. Premier League always gets overlooked in this award ceremony.
How did Jude Bellingham finish ahead of Saka for Kopa Balloon D'Or? Oh that's right, plays in Germany.

Meh. Not really bothered about this shit tbh. Who in the PL would you like to see get it? Outside of Arsenal all PL players are cùnts of one type or another - and we even have one playing for us! :lol:

Although I do agree it was a crime for Nedved to win it ahead of Henry. Shameful shit that was. :censored:

It Really is a Load of Bollocks, just some kind of self-molesting award for MadridCuntwhores and the BarcaWhoreBitches to dress up and get a free glitzy meal and claim they have the best players in the world...

It is as Corrupt as Fifa.. and that's not saying much... and about as fair as a construction workers health & safety clause in their contract in Qatar


Totally agree about how TH14 was passed over for the NedvedCunt, if ever there was 100% Proof of the corruption that is at the core & spine of Eufa & FIFA... that's a prime example.

Ballon d'or Load of Utter BOLLOCKS.

At that time there were two awards.

Henry came second in the world player of the year behind ronaldinho yet lost out to nedved for the European player.

Absolute shambles.

And who was Ronaldinho playing for at the time? Yep Barcelona.
