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?

    So many things wrong with this post that I don’t know ehere to begin…

    Di Maria single handely won the CA? Messi legit contributed to 75% of goals and had the most goals,assets and MOTM but Di Maria single handely won it because he scored one goal? That’s the equivalent of saying that Gotze carried Germajy fo the title in 2014 because he scored

    Same thing in the World Cup final? Correct me but Messi wss also brilliant and pretty much every other player, reducing all that to Di Maria is disrespectful to everyone that even Di Maria would’ve ashamed of hearing.

    And your final argument is just horrible, everyone in Argentina idolizes Messi more than Di Maria. Only person who they light idiolize more is Marsdona.

      Man said that when di Maria came off, they conceded 3 as if di Maria was playing centre back. Loool

        They only scored one. I guess Di Maria was playing CF right by your logic? Cause I didn’t mention him playing CB at all.

        I do worry about the comprehension levels of people these days. And you’re Sikh, meant to be one of the smartest group of people in the world yet you struggle to read & comprehend. It’s a shame.
