Lionel Messi’s performance is definitely not unanimous among observers of world football.
After winning his 8th France Football Ballon d’Or, Lionel Messi was crowned The Best, confirming the idea of total domination over the year 2023. An observation that some observers do not share, while Erling Haaland or Kylian Mbappé emerged as competitors at Pulga.
Lothar Matthäus, in particular, did not beat around the bush when commenting on this award. According to the 1990 world champion, the native of Rosario does not deserve to win The Best award this year. The German would have campaigned for a Manchester City player in the person of Haaland.
“He hasn’t won any major titles”
“He can’t be the winner this time, thundered Matthäus for Sky Germany. I think he was the best footballer of the last 20 years, but he was in Paris and Miami, where he was a hit, and didn’t win any major titles. If we consider the great successes, we cannot miss Manchester City and, to choose the best player, Erling Haaland. He won the most important titles with Manchester City. ” It is said.
