147: Why The Ballon D'Or Is A Joke

Strap yourselves in - it's a big one this week! Patrick van Straaten is joined by Dougie Critchley and Sam Obaseki to run their fingers over the Ballon D'Or rankings. They take a look at the top 15 names and play a simple game of higher or lower - do Giorgio Chiellini and Leonardo Bonucci deserve their spots? Has Romelu Lukaku actually had a better 12 months than Erling Haaland? What on earth are Kevin De Bruyne and Cristiano Ronaldo doing so high up? Then they get on to Jorginho in third spot - we bet you can guess who was trying to fight his corner tooth and nail! Then of course, who deserved the award more - Lionel Messi or Robert Lewandowski? We're sure you'll have a say on what we have to say so be sure to let us know - enjoy!
