Well if it isnt only about goals. Messi proofs that because of him Arg won the WC (vest player of the tournament etc) Messi gave capitan band to ex capitan, at the tine wheb lifting the trophy (MLS) and he done it as respect to him for his work in inter miami team. Messi gave band to Di Maria to show his respect toward his team mate and application toward his efforts (as he scored important goals.) Messi should win as he was better in all seance and I dobt care 8f people tried to see him winn all the time. You want to be tge best tgen you must do what vest does. Messi forever GOAT
Being on a show like the espn and arguing that a player who averages 5 touches a games deserves to be the best player just because he scored 52 goals sounds very much like the Cinderella story.
Craig is gonna be a mental patient after Messi wins the ballon d'or😅
Haaland all day long … but it’s fixed so it will go to Messi
haters gonna hate
This Balon d is for Messi, Messi makes self alls gool
Balmain Paris
Balenciaga Paris
Messi Paris
Its a fashion show,
Haaland deserves it but KDB deserves it more
You lot robbed Neymar but dont rob KDB, he deserves it, heck give it to Haaland if you want.
Everyone knows the World Cup 2022 was dodgy.
Messi will be given the Ballon dOr like he was given a penalty every match in World Cup.
Spent the whole season being booed by PSG fans until he moved to an amateur league. Won WC with soft and laughable penalties at every stage. But he’ll never have the same treatment media gives Ronaldo, the guy that took the blame for Man Utd’s woes after being their top goal scorer at the same age Messi is now.
Osimehin should be here ahead of Vinicius in my opinion
Hmmm ale if this is the crowning achievement? Why wouldn’t the 3rd champions league in a row and 5th champions league deserve a balon dor? 🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️
One of most dumb espn channel
No need to debate cz it obvious , it will be messi all the way.
Just imagine those Messi supporters faces when they see haaland walking onto the podium to lift the Balon dor😂😂😂
After winning the World Cup, is there still suspense for the Golden Globe?🤔
U guys are disrespectful to haaland. Messi was getting booed most of this season when he was playing for psg. Haaland is the premier league top scorer in a season( all time record ) and he is the champions league top scorer. Haaland scored 5 goals in a game this season in the champions league while messi was getting booed by psg supporters. U guys are illusional saying messi should win. Messi went to inter miami and all of a sudden he should win u guys are illusional. The american football league is not really that competitive so I don't understand why messi should win. He was getting booed most of this season for psg.
Was erling haland the best player in the world this year?? Certainly not
Scoring loads of goals doesn't make one the best player. Kevin de bruyne's game had more flair than haaland.
Haaland was great , but Messi won the World Cup contributing second highest goals,most assist and the golden ball. Messi deserves the balon d or.
the world cup was the most prestigious trophy until messi won it, not its downgraded
If you are talking about the best player in WC2022 , its Mbappe and if you are talking about best player in the league and Champions league, its Halland. Messi is nowhere the best player last season.
I love messi and I like Man City, so either messi or Haaland win the ballon D'or I'm ok with that. But do messi really care he win another ballon D'or or lose to Haaland.. in my opinion he completed football and he is really happy playing in MLS right now. I been watching messi from the start and he been giving happiness to his supporters since the beginning. There's only left 2-3 years maybe for us to enjoy him same to ronaldo fans. What the points arguing this and that who's the goat.. my opinion is if you love your fav player his already your goat in your heart. There's no need to force others to think the same way you think. I'm here with peace and I love football like many others who love football❤ enjoy guys ✌️
Leo Messi Messi Messi
Messi won the World Cup in 2022, not 2023, by the way.
Messi PR again
Give me a better reason why not to pick Messi after winning the most prestigious competition in spectacular fashion along with being awarded best player of the World Cup? Is there any other player who did better that Messi? Lol 😂 these reporters know nothing
No trophy is bigger than the world cup that's final so give Messi what belongs to Messi
Messi deserves it,, taking a world cup trophy is not an easy task
Haaland will win.
When ESPN fc is telling us, we shall protect Messi forever. Only him can win ballon d or, no one else.
This is why we the saudis league now.
You guys made Ronaldo a villain for no reason.
I used to come and watch ESPN fc now, I just scroll you guys down.
Keep your savior but we got many more talents heading to Saudi and trust me they are good.
jealous wont help you… be honest with your self…. MESSI deserve it!!!!!!
Other than scoring goals theres nothing much haaland can do on the field. There is literally nobody can do what messi does. Playmaking, dribbles, critical pass, scoring, setpieces.
Messi he deserves this
Haaland goes missing in big games. Messi literally scored 7 pens.
It's a hard decision
This one really hurts
Messi world up trophy 🏆🥇 vs Halland goals ⚽ and cl 🏆🥇
Frankly I don't think Messi even want the Balon'dor that much. He's probably tired of winning it & would prefer someone else get it. But based on how he bossed the wc even he knows he'll win it. Imagine winning something you probably don't care about anymore while everyone else would do anything to win it. What a player. Truly amazing player. I'm so happy to be living in this generation 👍🏼💯🔥🔥
Ballon dor faveret more to player who play for a world cup. Haaland 0 chance. Whoever said wc a tournament 4 week. Then u must a shamebolic and need to resign. Wc game every day plus one day have 3 match. If u want make wc have one game a week then a wc take a long to end. So stfu. Messi clear
So if Portugal would of won the World Cup would Ronaldo be at that list ? Tired of some unrealistic coments of Ale respect all opinions but they need more experts in ESPN
Where exactly is Craig Burley in the history of football that he allows himself to comment on the importance of the World Cup?! What exactly has he added to football?! He is so alien to football that he says that a player who still can't even dribble and free kick properly and hasn't had a special impact in big games so far should win the Ballon d'Or, but one of the best individual performances in the history of the World Cup by the best player in the history of football doesn't deserve to receive the Ballon d'Or!!!… 😐😂
Craig is wrong headed paundit! He is jealous on Messi's achievement. He over justifies regarding many analysis
how can a reporter only look at goals?
i mean its as simple as. world cup vs champions leauge. cuz both have leage titles. and messi accually has more goal contributions, more goals in finals, and the best cup performance ever
Haaland would have to do it consistently for the 2nd season or more .
NO ONE CARE ABOUT YOUR OPINION..SO GO AND CLOSE YOUR SHOP🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
MESSI WIN💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
You see how he hates messi from his face.
Old strategy – When you don't like opponents then try criticize them🥱🥱
Messi will win it
