I still don’t know how Modric won the 2018 Ballon D’or. He was not the best player in the world that year lol.

Ronaldo 100% wins it if he doesn't ask to leave madrid. He was insane that year.

Modric won it by a big margin. He would’ve won it regardless.

753 points for Modric

478 points for Ronaldo

Clearest example of the strength of Madrid PR we have. That was 100% Cristiano's Balon to win, yet the moment he left Madrid suddenly next best got propped up and ended up getting it against all odds.

against all odds

He won the CL and carried Croatia to a world cup final

Except he was awful in the first half of the season. Paulinho outscored him up until Christmas lol.

Well it’s a good thing the first half doesn’t count towards the 2018 B’Dor lol.

[–] Lolejimmy@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

that just puts that absurd comeback in the second half he had in perspective.
