Unfortunately the sponsors decide… Vini or Bellingham.
Mad to think Rodri winning the BD. 20 ish years ago he would just be one of about 10 top CM's playing across Europe.
Sorry but people are so stupid to compare Rodri, the best defensive midfielder on the planet who has unbelievable technical ability and isn’t scared to make line breaking passes under pressure, to a overhyped English tax merchant who only knows how to pass the ball backwards and who’s a glorified Harry winks. Rodri should be compared to proper midfielders who can do the basics of being a midfielder which is passing the ball forward under pressure, like Thomas Partey.
It's always fascinating to listen Pep's press conferences.
The only player who comes anywhere close to Rodri’s invincible run is Xhaka, who has had 47 games undefeated.
115 FFP crimes buys the best squad with lots of £100M players on the bench.
Vini should win it by miles..He carried Madrid in the champions league and won the best league in the world as well.. These prem fans are yapping Rodri becuz they desperately want a prem player to win the ballon d'Or..Lmao!
When did the Ballon d’Or become about being the best white player? Messi and Ronaldo didn’t win it because they were white, they won it because they were the best.
So now it's a sympathy d'or?
Its always fascinating to hear pep esp at the beginning of the season 😊😊😊😊😊
The best dm in football history..Rodri is doing things no other DMs did and do
Standards have dropped soo low these players are Balon dor lmao
Nico Williams should have been player of the tournament not Rodri. Olmo and Yamal were even better than Rodri
Rhodri will never win balon"dior. It's not for defensive midfielders it for attackers even football Gods like iniesta & xavi never won.
People of England, pundits, fans of opposition and especially the media … pep will NEVER EVER manage England … the sheer arrogance that a man who you’ve been undermining his success with every excuse going showing him very little respect and now you want him to manage the biggest job in the country? Please pep come save us 😂 pep see through the nonsense and has for a while hence why he gets bored of the media he KNOWS they can’t wait for a moment from him to fail so they can drag him through the mud. ENGLAND don’t deserve him and are arrogant for even thinking he would want to work for the FA 😂
Should have asked him if his players had recovered from the week of celebrations prior to the FA Cup Final
Where this energy last season when he was campaigning Messi to win who btw only won world cup the year before? He is double standard and hypocrite! 🤣🤣🤣
Rodri deserved to win this year
And we're back.Beanyman not back from his holidays yet 😂
The Rodri PR working strong as he plays for City.
Rodri ballon d’or over Mbappé, Haaland, Bellingham, Vinicius jr, and Rafael Leao???
People need to start paying better attention
I am hearing Rodri after the Euroe, while the whole of the year people were saying: "Vini will win it". Vini's team beat Pep and Rodri's team. He was a big part why they won La Liga and the Champions league. Now all of a sudden Rodri should win because commentators found he is a masterclass player?
The PR merchant Rodri continues
If rodri wins the ballon d’Or whilst playing for the most corrupt, fraudulent club in football history, then this sport is finished.
If a Spanish player was to win the Balon D'or then no one deserve it more than Carvajal. Also Rodri wasn't even the best player in that Spanish side heck he wasn't even the best in the midfield, Fabian Ruiz was. But of course PR.
Spain beat Germany, France & England. Rodri need baloon D Or. Well deserved. Player of tournament 🔥🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯🎉🎉🎉🥳👍🏻✅
Since 2006 the Ballondor has gone on who’s won the biggest trophies- can’t it just be who has played the best individually/INFLUENCE ON THE GAME/S
Great player but he’s just been charged by the authorities for saying things about Gibraltar – so I doubt he’ll win it
The Rodri Campaign is amazing .. Dont even know how he got Player of the Tournament ahead of Lamine and Nico.. and Simon for that matter.. The best player last season was Vini plane ans simple .. the Champions League trophy is the Most coveted Trophy in Football and Vini Jr. Contrubuted to Benzema's win the previous year .. This is the same kind of campaign and pundit jealousy that result in Thiery Henry and Drogba never winning the Balon D'Oro .. For me the reason is obvious..
Love him or hate him he is the most beautiful, creative forward in Soccer right now.. and Oh by the way Soccer is referred to as the Beautiful game.. Vini Jr deserves the Balon' D'Oro Rodri might be in the top 5..
Messi will get it
I honestly feel Rodri deserves the PR because it’s warranted. What was so fascinating is when he won the euro player of the tournament (whether you he should or shouldn’t have won) the spanish players “bowed” out of respect, because they genuinely appreciate it him in his country. In England he already knows he will not be given any individual awards but the spanish players and the federation know that this player is the best player in the world but people will actually never appreciate him just like how “Busquets” was only appreciated in the latter stages of his career and was never mentioned as the best midfielder in the world outside of DM, just midfielder. The “quaterback” in American football mostly dictates the game and gets rewarded, but in football that will never be the case
Rodri probably knows he won’t win it, because of him, his personality and his position but it would be so well deserved and breathe of fresh air to give a player that actually is important to the game of football. I think that is a narrative alright.
He's winning it.
According the smart people in here, your manager cannot talk about you in a press conference, its PR. Intellect really is a privilege.
Under Pep Joey Barton would have a chance of the ballon dior
Rodri has done so bad by calling gibrator this will give jude belligham the award
