Lautaro above Starboy in the Ballon d'or rankings, ballon d'or is cooked I say
world cup tax
@Astrealix @SoupACabra 1/6 of the ballon d’or nominees play for city and that doesn’t include their keeper nominated for the yashin 🤯🤯
I mean, it's a reputation award, and Man City just won the treble. Not really a surprise tbh. Fingers crossed that'll be us next season tho :P
@Astrealix agreed but they’ve also bought 3 of those 5 over the last two years (haaland, alverez, gvardiol) - i think.
@Astrealix actually when you look at the list 8 of the 30 played or currently plays for city 🤯. And 3 of the top 5 currently play for city.
Missed this Raya/Ramsdale stat comparison from a week ago: https://le-grove.co.uk/2023/10/23/raya-the-chosen-one/
The caveat is that it's all competitions and still a small sample.
So according to the voters of the Ballon d'Or, Saka is worse than Onana. Funny that.
Sports journalists, the lowest of the low in journalism...
Do people actually give a shit about it? It's just a circlejerk amongst a few.
That said, it'll be kinda dumb this year if Messi didn't get it, won the World Cup and transformed an entire league basically. Don't know if Erling Robo can ever achieve that in his career.
Someone on the Goosebumps writing staff is either a fellow Gunner....or likes to poke fun at Gunners. I can't tell 🤣
Didn't realise this, but theres a good few of the strong teams already out of the EFL cup. Plus one of Man U / Newcastle to go out this round. Could be interesting for us.
Livpool versus Assanal final whaddya say
Hopefully don't need to face them lol, I'd take a "crush chelsea's hopes and dreams" or "crush man united's soul" though
