Some awards where giving because they liked him, not because he was the best player.
Proof of this? It surely looks like you are making shit up.
For example, Lewandowski lost ballon d’or because of Messi.
Alright, let’s say that this is true and that year, Lewandowski actually deserved the trophy. Messi would still have won seven Ballon D’Or, the most by any player in history. He’s also won two Copa America, one World Cup, an Olympic Gold, and dozens of trophies at club level, including four Champions League. He’s second on the World Cup top scorers table, second all time top scorer, and has the all time record for most assists.
There is no way he is not a legend.
But alright, who do you think would be a “legendary player” in recent years?
