I've watched futbol for the last 7-8 years consistently. I'm still trying to figure out how the Ballon d'or awards are credited. Atleast in the NBA when it seems obvious for a coach or player to win an award 80% of the time it's correct
🚨🗣️ Gary Neville questions the Ballon d’Or organisers for naming Luis de la Fuente Men’s Coach of the Year over Luis Enrique and Mikel Arteta.
“How do you overlook Luis Enrique, who won Ligue 1 and the Champions League back to back after managing 56 games and Mikel Arteta, who managed 63 games, won the Premier League, arguably the most competitive league in the world and reached the UCL final, in favour of a coach whose achievements came in a seven game international tournament?
Club managers spend an entire season developing these players, only for national team coaches to benefit from that work and receive the individual recognition. When will club managers get the credit they deserve?
This decision raises serious questions about the criteria behind these awards.”
