For me halaands lack of anything but goals hinders him quite a bit while being a ghost from quarters on in the cl.
Messi singlehandedly lead argentina to the wc and did 40 g/a in 40 games in a shitshow of a team also battling covid. Halaand has plenty of time to win a ballon dor in the future.
Single handedly? Enzo won the best young player, macallister was introduced to the world, Julian alvarez was balling, and even more. How tf did messi carry??
2nd in goals
1st in xG
1st in assists
2nd in xA
1st in shots and shots on target
2nd in chances created
3rd in dribbles completed
2nd in touches in opponents box
2nd in passes into opponents box
3rd in duels won
8th in progressive carries
15th in successful passes
That doesnt mean he carried??? Im not saying Messi played bad, he was the best player on the team lmao, But to carry means you are the only good player from a trash team and to advance them. If you tell me Argentina is bad then youre delusional, they were all running circles around most teams. Maybe except lautaro
Should’ve been Haaland imo but it was clear the World Cup fairytale ending was too special for them to not give the award to Messi.
