Sadly, Dembele's rating ain't even higher than Yamal and Raphinha. It looks like he won't win it. You know what i meant, right? Sometimes, the evaluation that came from the panelist of Ballon D'or was unfair. Cheesy Cheesy
I know that there will never be a transparent voting in this Ballon D’Or, and as usual, they will give it to whoever they want and not who deserve it. Dembele should be among the top contestant because he did credibly well by leading his team PSG to the Champions League victory, League1 victory and other domestic cups, and finally help his team to make it to the FIFA Club World Cup final against Chelsea: he had great impact in all these and I think it is far better than Rafina’s stats last season and probably Lamar’s stats as well.

Although, Lamine Yamal is a wonder kid with great talent and ambition, if he is rated above Dembele at the end of everything, I will not complain, but if Rafinha is rated above Demebele, it will not be something we will accept because they can do anything in such awards Just to make money.
That's right, if Dembele fails to win the Ballon d'Or, the panelists integrity and credibility will be questioned, and they will all face harsh criticism from neutral football fans. Furthermore, many will justify Real Madrid stance, which boycotted the award last season. I tend to think that a player who wins the Champions League trophy is more deserving of the Ballon d'Or.
It is not today that the Ballon d'Or Award lost its integrity and credibility, so if Dembele fails to win the Ballon d'Or Award, I will not be surprised, and the Ballon d'Or panellists will not care if their integrity and credibility are questioned because they are used to it. Lamine Yamal is the player that will give Dembele a tough time in winning the Ballon d'Or Award, but since Dembele won the UEFA Champions League trophy with PSG, it will pave the way for Dembele to beat Lamine Yamal in the race for the Ballon d'Or Award.
But I will be really unfair is he doesn't win the ballon D'or, like that dude was actually amazing last season, like he was the hope of Paris Saint Germain and he always deliver in all game, but seeing lamine yamal and the rest getting high rating than him is one thing I don't understand, or is the French ligue 1 that worthless that they don't want to recommend his efforts in the treble won by the team? Like a team everyone thinks has lost it credibility for winning trophies after mbappe departure but yet this team did the unexpected and won the treble and Dembele made a huge impact, and now they rate yamal above him, truth be told this ballon D'or has really lost it value since politics has fully taken control of it and it's not fare.
It is true that he is the highest rated player to win the Ballon d'Or at the moment because he has everything under control.So in this context, if he doesn't win the Ballon d'Or, maybe it won't be fair to him. We have seen that his team has always been able to achieve everything in the French league so he was also a worthy sharer of the achievements for his team this year, which is why everyone is putting him ahead of everyone else to receive this award but even then, if he doesn't go for that award, it must be a matter of bias. There may be many tough opponents but he can surpass them all because he was able to win the Champions League and the treble last season.
