History will judge this moment harshly. In a single year, Kylian Mbappé finished as top scorer in La Liga, the Champions League and the World Cup, and became the greatest goalscorer in World Cup history along the way. Ballons d'Or come and go every year. A season like this may never be seen again. The football world will one day realise what it chose not to honour

What is Mbappe doing in the top 5? It should be Kane, Yamal, Olise, Messi and Rodri.

MBappe was laughing yesterday 😂 and he was humbled 🙂 trying to convince people to vote for him to win the ballot d'or. Beating Barcelona earned your team 3 points in LaLiga not the Ballon d'or. scoring a bunch of goals to lesser teams doesn't make you top. MBappe next year maybe you start very well try to win something with Real Madrid and you will get it.⚽️🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔📸

It's because you don't know football or either just blinded by your hatred for real Madrid if you're seriously asking that question

If balon d’or bases is based on goals only not the trophies, some players will be greedy for scoring, they don’t care wether their team lost or win that’s is not football.

Shut up. Goals alone don't win you Ballon d'OR. If you don't know this, you don't understand football. He should be grateful they gave him 2nd position, because he shouldn't be in top 5.

if it was based on goals and assist then Messi will have 15 balon Dor and Ronaldo only 2
