In light of recent events, this got me curious.
We know that Ballon d’Or was recently held and they have decided to crown Rodiri as the winner. Now, I don’t want to hear whether he deserved it or not or should it have been vini. This post is not to discuss that but, I want to know if this award really is objective and reflective of the best performing athlete in terms of football.
It has been said that the winner is decided by 100 journalists each picking their top 10 players of the year. Is it possible that these journalists may be affected by some personal bias or patriotism? How objective is this award and is this deciding method really the best?
Well, first of all, no one knows why they made that decision, which is the best for them. There may be others who do not agree with that decision, and there are others who mostly support that decision, but it's still like that in the field of sports, especially in football.
Then the selection of the best players. I also think that it is not easy for those who decide on that matter, unless there is an under the table that they want to be the best players,
you know what I mean.
