What are you even saying? Rodri is not a low level player. He won the Euros with Spain and 6 titles with Manchester City. While his actions, parading his award in front of Madrid players might have been seen as provocative, that doesn't mean he is a low level player or that he doesn't deserve the Ballon d'Or. And I also don't believe he was given the award out of pity.
While the debate over who deserved the award is valid, you cannot deny Rodri’s influence and consistency at both club and international level.
Yes, I know, and I respect what you say, I know all that, but for me Rodri is not a player who stands out, in fact I am sure that many did not even know who he was? We have heard about Vini, Haaland, even Lewa himself, but him? Have you seen his plays? Almost all the players have danced around him and he ends up on the floor, that for me is not a golden ball, well FIFA and the football organisations are now so corrupt that well, only they understand each other.
I hope that this award does not continue to drop in level, yes, Rodri is the golden ball, but I say this in my most personal clarification, for me he is not a worthy player. I prefer a thousand times that it is a Lewa, a Haaland.
