Let's create a hypothetical player.
3x Ballon d'Or
3x FIFA Best Player
5x Domestic League
4x Domestic League MVP
2x Domestic League Golden Boot
3x Domestic Cup
2x Euro Golden Boot
2x FIFA Golden Ball
1x World Cup
This player has the trophy gap between Messi and Ronaldo.
Sometimes I imagine what Messi thinks of many of his fellow professionals attacking him for an award he has no influence over, but then I recall he doesn’t even know anyone’s complaining.
