Very harsh comment coming now, I understand that the great Gigi Buffon is retiring this year but finishing 4th overall. I'm sorry but the legend has been pretty much consistent throughout his career but he lost his statue as the best keeper in the world a few years ago. I personally felt this year was the year in a while that their wasn't really a obvious winner.

I agree Shane thank god someone thinks the same as me. Gigi is a legend of the game and was the best keeper in the world several years ago. I would even argue he is the greatest keeper of all time. But to have him 4th in the ballon d’or is a surprise. It all seems to sentimental for me just because he’s retiring.

I suppose it depends on how you judge it.
A few seem to judge a player on what the team he is playing in won .
Strange.

I agree jred. But I do think it’s a bit of both. If the player has contributed heavily to the success of a team that wins trophies then of course they should be nominated. But if they are picked purely because there team won something I have an issue with that. You could argue that mahrez and Vardy should have been ranked higher when Leicester won the league. But because they don’t play for real and Barcelona they aren’t recognised.

I think Vardy came 6th?

Not bad seeing as he wasn't playing in ECL.

Not bad considering he is probably outside the top 600 In the world😂.
