This years Ballon d'Or feels a bit like when Giggs got SPOTY.

PSG fans were booing Messi in the 2nd half of last season as they were so pissed off with him

Due to the voting system, Ballon d'Or is merely a popularity contest - hence why Messi and Ronaldo were trading wins for over a decade (even when neither had particularly good seasons) - and is heavily affected by the player's trophy wins (either at club or international level). In 2021, Jorginho came third despite not being amazing simply because Chelsea won the Champions League and Italy won the Euros. Haaland and Mbappe will probably be trading wins for the next decade.

VAR having a lot of fun at Spurs v Chelsea tonight!

[Ascotexgunner]

Spurs looking terrible. Are we going to see a spursy performance.
Horrible challenge by Romario. Deliberately left his foot there.
Why wasn't Son booked as well? In the refs face for about 5 minutes.
Cmon Chelsea (urgh! I feel dirty saying that.)

Good game this.

3 disallowed goals (I am counting that last one), 1 penalty, 1 red card.

Was that longshot off? Looked close

If he'd missed the penalty we'd have a decision that pissed both sides off...the best type of decision

[BRO_BOT]

Yeah the spursing has commenced...two CBs out for min 3 games each

Maddison as well
I shouldn't laugh but some of their fans have been so damn arrogant about winning the title.

[Royal Rother]

20 mins of absolute carnage for Spurs.

20 mins of absolute carnage for Spurs.

And then they bring on Eric Dier

[Winston Biscuit]

Was going to read my book, but this has been good. Going to end up watching the 2nd half too now

[Winston Biscuit]

I want something really mad to happen now. Like out of nowhere make you sit up and question what you are seeing level mad.

Remember when that fella parachuted into the boxing ring? Something like that

[Ascotexgunner]

Fight!!!!!!!

The fans beat the living crap out of him....thought he was a terrorist. Had that motor thing on his back.

[Royal Rother]

Well that was real WTF-a-minute stuff!

[Royal Rother]

One would imagine that both managers will be telling their players to calm the fcuk down.

Hope not though!

[Orion1871]

Romero needs to realise that club football isn't like international football where refs will ignore bad tackles because they want your teammate to win the tournament.
