Nico Williams, Fabian ruiz, and dani Olmo getting no recognition is so tough to see. So so so good all 3 of them worthy of honours
It's he epl fanism
Fabian ruiz is the greatest player in the squad without a doubt 😏
Olmo what he did to get the ball into the box was brilliant chipping it over them all to Williams and morata just wow I love that guy 🇪🇸🇪🇸 England could not compete against this Spain not at any level even Rodri come off as he was bored and too easy for Spain to maintain he did his work in the first half and tired them out 😂 he felt sorry for them
Robbed the tournament award over Ruiz and Olmo. Lost against 2024 Man United in the FA cup final. Lost vs Madrid then became so salty that he afterwards claimed that he only saw one team play (even though he played for Atletico Madrid aka One of the most defensive teams in history), ghosted in multiple big matches and now his 115 charges fc fanboys who will never be investigated give him Ballon D'or shouts. Last year he won the treble and the nations league. No one gave him shouts because he was up against Messi and his teammates. Now all of a sudden, he deserves the Ballon D'or 😂
Rodri never use to get the recognition he deserves glad he’s getting now
He truly deserves it. He’s the most important player for both his club and country but he was robbed for not being awarded player of the EPL season.
Absolutely
I guess that Foden was simply more English than Rodri 😂
PFA player of the season being a flop player of the tournament 😂😂
For City? 100% but he was outshined easily by Fabian Ruiz this tournament. Why isn’t he getting the nod?
@@BiggestChungus21 You don’t watch football 🤣
Rodri to win the ballon d'or
lol 😂
If he was from Portugal they’d rig it for him to win like they did for Ronaldo in 2013 when they extended the voting
He now has to compete with Messi. 😂
Lautaro
He’s deserve it, Vini for Brazil is pathetic
Rodri the midfield maestro
the best defensive midfielder in Europe,
Rodri - Treble,4peat,Euros Champion 🦈
Best midfielder.
After Rodri come Xhaka
He is the best player in the world
UNHEARD ACHIEVEMENTS:
- 5+ Player of the tournaments and/or season in the last 1-2 years.
- Goals of the tournament
Treble
- Countless hard fought trophies
-1 loss in 81 consequetive games played or 526 days ALL COMPS (and counting)
A dm would have no chance in the 2010s for bollon d'or but there should be no reason to get robbed in this new era bc there are little to no legends left
Teams win because of the man. Always turns up.
The Ballon Dor 2024

But Messi took the Ballon dor from the deserving one (Also Haaland got robbed as well)
@@AmirAbdulhakim Messi Win World Cup in 2022/23
Why didn't Iniesta or Xavi not win in 2010 then? Why didn't Manuel nuer or Thomas Muller in 2014? Why not Griezman in 2018? All who O have mentioned were the best players for their team and they were fantastic, but that wasn't enough for them to win Ballon dor! But when it's Messi winning it after what Rodri and Haaland did(In his first season), it's ok!@@GABICRF-vw9ss

What is your point!
@@AmirAbdulhakim Messi is Messi, The Goat
7 goals and 3 assists
2 goals in final
6 player of the match in 7 games
Definitely deserves the Balon D or. Vini and Bellingham are nowhere near him in terms of international football.
Unfortunately international football is not all that decides the ballondor unless you are from Argentina
@@rickystyles9891Facts, that's the main reason why when previous world cups, they did not give Ballon dor to Iniesta or Xavi in 2010, to Manuel büro in 2014, not Griezman in 2018. But for Messi, it's ok!
And of course the reason why he won 2021 Ballon dor over Lewandowski was that he won Copa America! 😂
Or when ronaldo stole the ballon dor from ribery in 2013 after uefa extended the voting deadline to make sure Ronaldo would win
@@rickystyles9891 He also won the PL trophy and went round to quarter final in the UCL. Anything other than him is a robbery. Vini sucked internationally and benefits from a strong Real Madrid team. Rodri has proven himself in two teams, one which had way more unknowns.
@@AmirAbdulhakimstill crying 😂
Rodri is quality but Fabian Ruiz and Nico Williams could of won it also easily..
Why them ... gave it to lamine yamal

He definitely deserves it

Lost vs Madrid then became so salty that he afterwards claimed that he only saw one team play (even though he played for Atletico Madrid aka One of the most defensive teams in history), ghosted in multiple bi matches and now his 115 charges fc fanboys who will never be investigated give him Ballon D'or shouts. Even Carvajal deserves that award more.
@@IscoMadrid-fd7fy why are you crying 😭😭😭??? First of all rodri doesn't play for stats he plays for the team, but don't worry u will be okay, u might have difficulties in your life but u will be okay keep crying
@@KaweesaTanansi Yeah and guys like Carvajal, Vini and Bellingham who assist and score goals in big matches play purely for themselves. Rodri had better stats and achievments last season but because he was up against Messi an his teammates, people were silent. Now all of a sudden this ghost deserves the award lol.
Of course they are happy rodri got it . He plays in the epl . He was very good but olmo nico ruiz and yamal were more effective consistently .its all an epl bias
Like the last Ballon D'or Messi won. Bias
Or like the 2013 and 2016 ballon dor ronaldo won stealing from ribery and Suarez
@tevildo45 nah. You crazy if you think cr7 didn't deserve 2016 bdor & he definitely deserved 2013 if Messi deserved the 2012, 2010 & 2019 bdor
Yamal wasn't more effective
@@BachelorMac1016get a life
After Kobbie chased him off at half time. Personally I think Williams was the best player think he showed his class against walker tonight. I’m a United fan from Rotherham so pains me to say walker is in the best 3 right backs in the world doesn’t often get shown up but was tonight. I think if we pulled Kane and walker of at half time or just after we would have won despite Spain being the team of the tournament
As a Liverpool fan, I could cheerfully rubbish Walker if he was simply bad, but he had a good tournament and a poor game. I think he was simply too tired, and should have been subbed at the half. I do not blame the player, I blame the manager. Southgate had three RBs to choose from (Trippier, TAA, Gomez). Joe Gomez is actually nearly as fast as Walker, just as strong physically, and technically a shade better. Joe with fresh legs would not have allowed either Spanish goal. If Gareth could be bothered to understand the wealth on players sitting on his bench, Spain would have been shut out in the first 90.
Dude Kobbie Mainoo was one of the worst players on the pitch yesterday what are you talking about chased Rodri off 😂😂😂.
Chase off lol he was injured. You have not seen anything and chatting rubbish. And Mainoo l lol worst player 😂😂
He didn't chase anybody lol. Get some glasses. He was nurturing an injury from the match against France and he still showed up L O L
Chased off 😂😂😂 he got injured blocking a Kane shot that was a guaranteed goal, literally put his body on the line and got his team the win
How he won it over Nico yamal olmo just baffles me
Rodri for Ballon D'or 😮
Own goal was the top goal scorer
Now rodri deserve balloon dor after Spain 🇪🇸 win euro agree or not
Rodri deserved another in 2023 but Messi robbed him:
UCl
Premier league
Nations league
Fa cup
UEFA Super cup
UCl player of the season
UCl final MVP
Scored a winning goal for Man City
Nations league best player
Nations league final MVP
Premier league team of the year
Was the most consistent player for Man City!!!
@@AmirAbdulhakimMessi-Finallisma,world cup and league title👀
@@K.B.D0 Finalists doesn't count for 2022/23. And Ligue 1 isn't that big as premier league
@@K.B.D0 Btw I believe Messi is the Goat, but you have to stand upon the truth. Messi didn't deserve this award ahead of Haaland and Rodri! Now I know why so many young stars like Mbappe, Haaland and Neymar could not win any major awards: Because in some occasions they are getting robbed by Messi and Ronaldo! It's unfair for the next generation.
Just because someone's PR is higher, you have to give it to him?
@@AmirAbdulhakim Haaland didnt make a wc aplearence and rodri wasn't a starter for spain/got knocked out in r16 of the world cup as did messi in the ucl
Fabian ruiz ?
ballon D'or for him, please
Rodri ballandor for his taking it
yeah, they had a good run!!! Rodri was the key player in every game.
I was anticipating Dani Olmo to be the player of the tournament, as he had an outstanding performance with 3 goals. His header to clear the ball off the goal line and prevent England from scoring was invaluable for Spain.
Would've given it to Olmo...
Justice for Lamin Yamal, the kid should have won both the young player and player of the tournament
amazing player
Rodri was great too but for me its Dani olmo
Yamal deserves player of the tournament
Rodri On Fire !!!! Lalalalaalalala Rodri On fire !!!!!
Sinceramente y aclaro que no soy Madridista ni de cerca. En mi opinion Dani Carvajal se lo gano por su gran esfuerzo fue el mas scrificado de ese campeonato. Otro que fue para mi mejor Fabian Ruiz. Nico Williams tambien tuvo lo suyo pero sin jugar con la intensidad de los dos primeros. Para mi esos tres fueron mas para España que Rodri.
He is the best player in the world at this moment
why you gotta lid
To say that Rodri should get ballon d or all of you are crazy. What about Dani Carvajal?? He won Laliga, Supercopa De España, Champions League and Euro Cup. He was incredibly in every single match.
This year, it's tough to decide who should win Balon dOr. But i think Vinicius should get it for his world class performance in UCL knockout stages this season.
He had a poor Copa, but so did his contenders. They also failed at some point. No one had the perfect season this time.
@@hsafootballworld1321 bellingham assists in both UCL final and EURO final, winning la liga POTS and highest rated player in top 5 leagues... bro how is that not perfect
Dani winning the Ballon D'or will be another excuse to give it to someone from Real Madrid. Julian Alvarez literally had an amazing 2023/2024 season and yet Messi won the golden ball. If Dani was that good, where is his player of the tournament? Rodri has to win the Ballon D'or any other verdict will just be biased towards Real Madrid.
@@BlueThanosMaster He was carried by Vinicius in UCL.
That is why he is not good enough to win.
@@BachelorMac1016 rodri? Did u forget about highest rated in top 5 leagues who assisted in both major finals?
Top scorer own goal
Nico williams!?
where is Ali??
Rodri ballondor
While it wasn't his fault, Rodri didn't even play the second half which kind of tells you he wasn't their most important player as they still performed to a high level. I actually think Olmo and Ruiz should have got the shout. Olmo was even their best player in the WC as well IMO this isn't a one off for him/Spain
it's not about the final game but the whole competition mate....and if it was.. Rodris block saved Spain from conceding or were you not watching the same game
It’s not easy to see Rodri,s qualities if you are not really into football
rodri didnt play the 2nd half and that was the only 45 mins when spain looked vulnerable in this entire tournament. Its not very hard to see
@@pickle8233vulnerable? They scored 2 goals 😂 dominated yes England had to attack certain point to score as they were losing. Rodri is good but not a balon d’or type player. For me yamal Nico deserve kt
Fourth trophy for Spain
Fabian Ruiz should be player of the tournament with 2 goals and 2 assist.
And UEFA should really reconsider how these awards are done. Yamal with most assist, most dribbles should be the actual player of the tournament.
I'll miss Mr Mcmanaman
Rodri or Busquets, Iniesta or Olmo, Fabián or Xavi, Mikel Merino or XAlonso, villa or Williams, torres or Morata but ... Yamal s other level has no player to😂
No Ballon d'or for Rodri IMO. Excellent player and amazing tournament though.
Dani Olmo should have been best player. Without him, they do not beat Germany.
Without rodri they wouldn't beat anyone
Agree 100%
@@vijendrarevankar6101 They beat England without him, silly.
Olmo, Fabian, Nico and Lamine were more desrving but 115 FC robbed them.
Just like how useless walker made the TOT ahead of Dani Carvajal and Kounde.
@@DamianKnox11 and they conceded how many chances defensively compared to 1st half and if it wasn't for rodri kane had a clear goal bound shot blocked by him idk why people speak without watching the whole match and just the highlights pathetic.
Should have gone to Williams who breathed life into an otherwise dull competition.
Olmo,fabian or yamal were more deserving
Balon d'or for sure. Rodri deserves it.
he never deserved, Olmo, Williams or Ruiz should have won
literally i don’t think i even knew he was playing half the time
How mamy goals and assists has he got?
Rodri is an engine teams cannot function without him
10 goals and 11 assists, almost the same as vini who is a winger 💀
@@yma7gaming357he’s talking about in euros
@@truthmatters758 I mean how many you want from a cdm man, he has 1 goal and 1 assist
@@yma7gaming357 literally yamal and nico were better than him the whole tournament 😅
Absurd, ridiculous. He was Spains 6th best player.

Lol, best young player is a pointless award. Age has nothing do with greatnesso
Though I am barca fan, best player should go for Bellingham.
Rodri 😂😂😂 the pl bias is crazy
maguire 😅😅😅
Should win the balon dor like messi won it for the world cup.
Ballon d’Or is a popularity award, Rodri won’t win it, sadly
prime Rodri over prime Busquets 🔥🔥🔥
Busquets is nowhere near this guy
Rodri is real Man City players of the year but got stolen by English overhype 🤣
Makes me laugh england have not won 1 single tournament in our lifes, and you people will always be saying the same thing
Football is not won on paper, and media experts all see football as on paper
Football is 11 vs 11
Lots of rubbish teams have won things, and laughably england have not done it once
hahaha
Football won not overrated English premier league and england garb@ge
First it was Foden, now it’s Rodri. Both so overrated. Manchester City’s PR is scary.

You can list team achievements all you want. He’s defensively average.
Once Rodri got red carded against Nottingham man city went on a streak of losing and drawing games against low table teams I don’t get how he’s overrated won ucl the nations league the euros was ucl player of the season won the uefa nations league player of the tournament and now is euros player of the tournament he didn’t even make the fifpro world xi last year smh 🤣🤣🤣🤣

@@ibrahimisa7928
No he didn’t.
@@Slim-ClipsHe wasnt spains best player but he was still great,spain were more vulnerable defensively without Rodri in the second half
Is this the first time your African country watched soccer?
Honestly, im not saying Rodri is not the best CDM in the world but saying he should get the ballon d’or is crazy.
He was not the best player of the PL nor the CL and honestly in my opinion not the best player of the euro or spain (yamal or olmo for me). On the other hand we have a midfielder who won the CL, the liga, super copa , was the best player in la liga almost a pichichi and did a euro final by scoring a bycicle and being a central player in his squad. Again he is a midfielder not a 9.
rodri was one of the best players in the league last season. bellinghamm ahd a good first half of the season and ghosted during the second half of the season
@@ato-blakussam-acquah1557honestly what do you mean by ghosting?
@ato-blakussam-acquah1557 do you somehow forget he was clutch in arguably, the biggest games of RM season, against Barcelona?
@@Joeeye123exactly for me most of the clutch wins in the first half of the season impacted most of there titles, and when arda and brahim diaz became way more impactfull in the attack, bellingham played more of a 5 position with less implication in the attack and more of a control of the midfield but that means less goals and assist so people call it ghosting
@@Joeeye123 against a pathetiuc barcelona that cant defend...plsss!
