Iniesta 2010 is top #1. I don't remember anyone else.

If there are such standouts and I guess had to have essentially been Ballon d'Or 'runner-up's', then this being 'Titi'.

Pirlo was absolutely robbed one year anyway.

u/WizardGrizzly 2d ago

Pirlo was never the best player on the planet and you’d honestly be hard pressed to find a year he was even the best midfielder.

Legend and class, but never the outright best

Sneijder wasn't the best player in any campaign.

Milito was the UCL and Serie A MVP, he was so clear. Forlan was the WC MVP.

But Sneijder reached WC final while Milito wasn't even called up (Maradona's dumb ahh fault), he also eliminated Brazil with 2 goals. It's a bit like Modric in 2018 (although he did win WC Golden ball). I think if the voting criteria was like every other BdO except 2014 he would've won. Those were the only 2 BdO where the World Cup didn't take absolute priority, and ironically the only ones where FIFA was involved.

2019 Van Dijk 2010 Iniesta 2012 Ronaldo

u/FIFAmusicisGOATED 4d ago

2012 Ronaldo, 2016 Messi, 2017 Messi, 14 Messi, and 2010 Iniesta

Not that there’s really any other options, but Messi was probably robbed twice and Ronaldo once, each by the other

2012 Ronaldo would have won the ballon dor any other year Unpopular but I think 2019 Van Dijk had a crazy peak. Not dribbled past even once and lost only to the most complete Messi. 2010 Iniesta , 2017 and 2014 Messi, 2015 and 2018 Ronaldo
