🗣️ Petr Čech on the Ballon d’Or organisers naming Unai Simón Goalkeeper of the Year over David Raya:
“I honestly can't believe what the Ballon d'Or has become. Is this a football awards ceremony or a FIFA World Cup winners' celebration? Are we really judging an entire season by a seven-game tournament?
It's embarrassing. David Raya has won THREE consecutive Premier League Golden Gloves, kept 19 clean sheets in the league and nine more in the Champions League. Yet somehow, that's not enough to make him the best goalkeeper of the year?
Unai Simón deserves credit for his World Cup performances, but individual awards should recognise consistency across an entire season, not just international tournament success.
Raya has proved himself week after week at the highest level. If we're going to ignore that kind of consistency because another goalkeeper won the World Cup, then what exactly are these awards meant to recognise?
The Ballon d'Or organisers need to explain their criteria because decisions like this make a mockery of the entire process.

No entiendo como gana Unai Simón el guante de oro sobre David Raya ni sabía dónde jugaba Simón, y tampoco entiendo como es que Raya no es el titular de España
@MaTere_Mendoza Obvio así debe ser, entonces esos políticos de derecha que se vayan para su mierda y se queden los que le quieren dar más oportunidades al pueblo no los que quieren quitar derechos y bajar salario
