Why's this Messi season is overrated and literally doesn't deserve the ballon d'or For
A THREAD :
Messi literally has been the favorite for the ballon d'or not because he has a great season or great individual performances
Because Some circumstances helped him
Especially Lewandowski who got injury before UCL quarter final against PSG
KDB got injury in UCL Final
Mbappe got injured in UCL semi Fnal
Cristiano Ronaldo who had difficult season with bums like Pirlo
When you see the overall stats
Messi has the most G/A in Calendar year great then
but when you context show you that the G/A is Fuggazi tbf
Check this out
0 goals against TOP 3 in la Liga
5 gals in UCL : 4 pens, one important pen missed
Less G/A in Copa del Rey than the LB Jordi Alba
Literally decided 1 game whole compaign against team like Granada lol
Average Copa America kO performance as well
Literally 0 big performance whole season except a two game in Copa America group stage
Decided 0 difficult games in Copa America KO stage
Ecuador isn't a difficult game for Argentina, by the way
Make you think 🤔
Also in Copa America group stage games shouldn't be counted as big games because of the tournament format
5 teams = 4 qualify to quarter final
So you can gain 3 points and still qualify
It's just matchs stuffing for TV rights
People bring to the argument things like he won POTT/golden boot in Copa America lol
Let's talk about it
In Copa there's absolutely no individual competition to Messi except Neymar ....

Check this out and you're supposed to laugh btw 😭😭
About the golden boot:
Luis Dias literally has the same amount of goals as Messi despite playing less games / minutes and playing for weaker sides as well
If you're someone unbiased you'll know that Messi had an average season and there's Lewandowski and Jourginho who were arguably superior to him
In Performance in big games
Contribution
ect
Lewandowski 41 goals in the league ( Record )
Broke Gerd Müller records
Most G/A in the season
Most Goals in calendar year
Better G/A per minutes in calendar year
More games winning goals
Better Big games performance
.....
Jourginho
One of the best seasons by a Midfielder in the last 10 years
Literally lead in everything link to his roles on the pitch
UCL winner
Euros Winner
Super cup winner ⏳
CWC winner⏳
UNL winner ⏳
This two players got a better season than Messi and it's not even close tbf
But they don't have the same PR
They literally performed in better competitions than Messi did lol
Especially Jourginho
UCL > Copa del Rey
PL >= La Liga
Euros > Copa America
