The biggest Ballon d'Or snub was when World Wide Wes who won the treble and carried Holland to the world cup final, didn't even make top 3.

All the more reason Modrics win is such a fluke. If Iniesta Xavi and Sneidjer didn't win, then Modric had no business winning it

They need to spilt this award.Man, and speaking of defenders, it's crazy to me how guys like Puyol and Maldini never won a Ballon D'or.

You can’t compare forwards to midfielders to defender to keepers.
What does a keeper need to do win this award? What does a left back need to do to win this award? Has a defensive midfielder won this award yet?

Nor should they.
Very good players, but neither controlled or dominated games.
For as good as Biscuits is/was, reality is, he was like the 7/8 most important player on them Barca teams.
MO, Xavi, Iniesta, Etoo, Dani, Valdes, Puyol.

Valdes footballing skills were vital to how Barca wanted to play from the back, also the fact that he was a sweeper/keeper when teams countered, allowed Barca to play with the high line. You think Barca would of been able to do that with Joe Hart or Roy Carroll in goal? There is a reason why Pep bushed Joe Hart for Claudio Bravo and it wasnt because of shot stopping abilities either, which Hart is far more superior at.

I've never heard of it before, but on one of Expressions videos from the other day. Trophy Mourinho
so simple and so easy.
Tbh dude was only good for few months i.e. he was rubbish for the most of the latter half of 2010.The biggest Ballon d'Or snub was when World Wide Wes who won the treble and carried Holland to the world cup final, didn't even make top 3.
Messi was definitely that years best player, dude was out here getting compared to maradona and pele.
