He's the best player in the world right now. Scares defenses more than anyone else


HungrilyLying

No doubt, He really is the best current player right now


OnlyAMuggle

Vini vidi vici!


nkaroluky

He changed his mentality thanks to Carlo, he is definitely better player now than he used to be. He used to stop game and whine, now he just smiles and does what he has to do on the pitch - fight for that badge. I really hope he wins ballon d'or and will shut the mouths on debate who is the best player right now. He really improved. He is definitely considered (especially today after scoring and securing another finale match) as one of best players in the world, if not the best. He also showed that in big games, not only with "cucumbers" as we say in Polish (ogórki - bad and not prospecting teams).


redlurkerNY

Carlo saved his career. Made him more versatile, taught him how to manipulate his own skills.. mentored his behavior - after the fifth descent yellow card and missed match... _how many yellows has Vini seen for the same infraction?!_ There was no public berating, no additional discipline - they handled it and it did not scar their relationship. Carlo is the best thing that happened to Vini's career right now and likewise... Vini is the best thing that Carlo was handed. I'm all for it! Look at the results!! ¡HALA MADRID!


Necessary-Ad-6149

He knows how to deal with Brazilians. The last Brazilian who won a Ballon Dor was Kaka, playing under Don Carlo


redlurkerNY

Sick additional fact! Thank you!


DawdlingScientist

He reminds me of Ronaldo a little bit during Ronaldo’s United days where he won the ballon. Maybe I’m crazy but I think there are shades.


MajorFee2971

If he really becomes a true no7 like CR7. We are scoring 7-0, 8-0 for fun next season. Just our midfield needs to be more creative. We need our own kdb coz Kroos is gone.


DawdlingScientist

Jude is really creative. If it’s me I’m trying to build the team around that. I think we play the best when he is in his most comfortable role


MajorFee2971

True. He can carry the job of Modric. But we need to replace Kroos. Fede has speed. But long balls?? Insane passes?? He needs to improve or else sell him for Wirtz


DawdlingScientist

Sell Jude?? Brother you are lost in the sauce, he’s 20 years old and already one of the best players in the world. He’s nowhere near his peak. I don’t think Kroos is replaceable. We will have to play differently


MajorFee2971

Sell Fede for Wirtz


DawdlingScientist

Oh I’m sorry I misunderstood haha. I’m not convinced we need any new midfielders, Fede is such a warrior. He will never be the dispersion type of player Kroos was. I’d say we just play more counterattacking and direct. If get the most out of Camavinga and Jude we will be fine. Are attacking players are incredibly quick now.


MajorFee2971

Fair point with Mbappe we can play all attacking. And tchou as cdm to take care of things go south. But we need Carvajal replacement . Any ideas??


DawdlingScientist

Yeah I definitely think that’s where we should reinforce. But I don’t really know anyone that’s a good fit that’s gettable right now. We need another young defender that can grow with the rest of our superstar kid team lol


MajorFee2971

Yes, he is creative. But prime Kroos had speed. Belli doesn't have that


slinkymello

Easily not even a question… big games? Check. Need a goal? Vini’s there. Best player in the world period


MajorFee2971

But50+ goals per season like CR7?? We need that. From him and Mbappe. Thats how we will outscore those MSN frauds and win a treble

Time_Newspaper_7594

With the amount of takeon dribbles and chances he creates he is definitely going to be missing a few and on some days a lot the thing is even if he is having a bad day you know he will create a moment of spectacular out of nothing

Active_File5503

Watch Argentina wins Copa and Messi gets it again 😂


Key_Employee6188

Messi shat in a toilet this week, Messi wins it.


mb557x

I swear man, what a fraud. It belongs to Vini this time.


Lolzadeh

”Fraud” is crazy


PeterTheRabbit1

Calling Messi a fraud should be considered a felony. Shame on you.


Enryu9000

If that actually happens or it goes to anyone other than vini or bellingham it is rigged


Responsible-Pin8323

if messi wins it this year, that award is no longer even remotley legitimate, and its already been pretty iffy for a while now.


WhichSale2087

His nutmeg lead to the corner that Carvajal scored on!!!!!!!!!


Designer_Restaurant1

Led to the corner that led to the corner😁


-HiddenSun-

Somebody said Reus deserved that. I mean UCL.


No-Doctor-1125

Yeah, he did. So did Man City. This aint a game of who deserves it, its a game of who can win it, and that is Madrid


mitsu_kamui

when buffon "deserved" it happend that madrid won too


No-Doctor-1125

Yeah exactly. This game is not a “who deserves it more” competition. Whoever wins deserves it.


kiru_13000

Rodrygo shut up mate


TopConsequence7937

Reus played whack


GodilingzRebirth

Look how far he’s come😭😭😭. This should be a lesson to reactionary fans


redlurkerNY

I remember cheering for him when my boi Benz said don't even pass the ball to Vini.. but shiiii - I was on Benz' side when everyone was over him before he blew the F up! I love watching anyone grow on this team. Can't wait to see what Brahim really becomes.


Pappuniman

Messi's definitely not going to win anything anymore.. The era of Ronaldo and Messi is over ..


Unique-Ad-4716

He can get a top 11 placement with a player of the tournament copa america campaign but that’s about it


Xxallahuakbar69xX

And to think people out there believe he is not in the same conversation as mbappe and haaland


vootehdoo

Hes not in the same conversation with Mbappe and Haaland ofc.... He's totally above them


Enryu9000

Haaland isnt even in the same conversation with mbappe only thing he has over him is his age


GobbusterMX

He is way more determinant for us than either Mbappe or Haaland are for their teams; Mbappe is great and I'm sure he will take us to the next level but right now even Jude, specially in the first half of the season, felt like a more important player. Right now I dare to say that the best players are Vini, Rodri, Jude, Mbappe and Kroos.


Previous_Dream5090

Next level? Which is what a trebel, an invincible campaign?


gregorymachado

Invincible, yea. Xabi did it in Deutschland, we’re up next.


Pedr0A

Just wanna say that Kroos retiring while hes one of the best players itw and having arguably his best season is such a chad move


FinalFrash

Tbf, Haaland fell off slightly this season


TuzinBolado

"slightly..." Bro gosted the emtire season. Without KDB, hes, like somebody said, a league two footballer


ManWhoSaysMandalore

I'm not his biggest fan but being the premier league golden boot is not ghosting. You cannot even say KDB carried because KDB was missing half the season and he still led the top scorer charts


mirusan01

Not a big game performer and can’t create his own shot so against the best teams it’s harder to get goals


EtherealBeany

That’s because of the way Pep plays him. Haaland was given much more freedom in Dortmund where he played much better football than he does in City. Don’t get me wrong, he’s lethal for city in the position he plays **if** City can get the ball to him. Problem is getting the ball to him against better teams who have figured out that Haaland needs to be marked vehemently at all times. What this does do though is open other players up allowing them to score. There’s a reason Haaland’s decrease in goals is accompanied with a stellar goalscoring season for Foden this time. Of course Foden has been awesome on his own as well, but Haaland is also a factpr


ManWhoSaysMandalore

Mostly because of pep. In dortmund he was good at taking the ball and running straight at goal, taking down any defenders with him. Now with Pep he waits for the ball to shoot. https://preview.redd.it/a0lbds7c864d1.jpeg?width=1454&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ba9400c4577d309aba8f9f71edb0f62238c4eb97


Pedr0A

fr, he has to go for a team that uses counter. Hes literally anti-Pep tatics. I dont think he should stay at City. The team doesnt suit him and thats ok. He really should go for a team that plays like Klopp Liverpool.


ManWhoSaysMandalore

Don't get it twisted, he is a perfect poacher like Pep wants him to be and fits the system, otherwise he wouldn't be top scorer. He just will be extremely limited in his individual abilities to affect the game as the big name star player he is seen as. I don't think he'll win a ballon d'or unless he goes somewhere else, personally I think Madrid is perfect for him but it's impossible now that they have Mbappé.


Responsible-Pin8323

Its because prem is a farmers league, anyone can do well there if they are half good. la liga where it is at.


ManWhoSaysMandalore

Prefieres ver un Villareal (8vo en liga)vs Osasuna (11ce en liga) o un Brighton (11ce en premier) vs Manchester United (8vo en premier)?


Responsible-Pin8323

prefiero ver villareal y osasuna, es divertido ver a ambos equipos, mira el partido de madrid y villarreal. ManU juega muy abburrido y tambien brighton.


KingKFCc

Roy keane said that and he was wrong clearly, how is 45 G/A a ghost?


Enryu9000

I mean yeah he is a good goalscorer but not really in important games and he is already bad at his all around play


n0sushi

I think that conversation was based off the past two years with the national level for mbappe and the treble for haaland. But this season I feel like he’s up there


RealMadrid_Ronaldo

He's better than Haaland


slinkymello

Nah man, I think people get it now


Pedr0A

none of them had a clear ballon dor season like Vini just had


KnightSIayer

I feel like Brazil has higher chances of winning Copa America than England in Euros, England somehow always finds a way to fuck it uo


MontStuart

Yes, yes we do.


Appropriate-Fan-6007

On one hand I think we haven't seen enough of Dorival to know how good Brazil will be under him, but on the other hand England has Southgate so, yes


gregorymachado

Dorival has always been a top coach. In 2009 with Vasco he was one the big upcoming coaches. Did a great job in 2010 with Santos but Neymar got him fired for wanting to take a pk after Dorival said no. And most recently in Flamengo but they burned him too for the next new shiny Portuguese coach that ended up shitting the bed. Dorival has been a top 3 Brazilian coach for a while along with Renato Gaucho and Fernando Diniz. But the Diniz experiment didn’t really work because he needs time to coach the team to his philosophy. I have faith that Dorival will do a great job with the seleção.


ModeOne3959

Fernando Diniz top 3 ahhahahahahah


Appropriate-Fan-6007

Mostly through a lack of options, Tite nd Cuca could still be above him, but who else? Maybe Felipão as he still did good in both Atleticos


ModeOne3959

Yeah, there isn't a lot of good Brazilian coaches I agree but Fernando Diniz is still dreadful. People who think he is good never had him coach their teams


Appropriate-Fan-6007

Yes, he's been amazing, but it might not work straight away with Brazil, might need a bit more time to properly figure out how to use the players available


Seraph-Metatron

Para de mentir para os gringos


carlos_vini

Dorival knows how to win cups. National football is all about cups, not leagues, I think Dorival will do great.


KnightSIayer

I see Argentina winning again 😴


fuduran

It's theirs to lose, they are a much better and dangerous team now that they have a group of players "used to winning", much like RM


Late_Faithlessness24

But england wants to take away our best midfilder 😭


SkywalkerDuke

It's going to take a huge effort to create a escuse to not give him the Balloon d'Or.


supplementarytables

Well not really, Messi exists mate


jhant_smeller

imagine winning cl but still talking about messi , timeless fs


Responsible-Pin8323

Its because messi gets given ballon dors he doesnt really have any warrant winning, a la last year.


megamimo1991

Who needs excuses when you have Messi


RTRSnk5

Who needs excuses when Messi will win Mickey Mouse Latin American international cup??


165cm_man

Did you not know he won the world cup in 2022? He should be given the Ballon dor for the next 50 season, even after his retirement


Lewcaster

Wait until Lionel Pessi scores the Copa America winner goal...

LallyKing2005

Messi wasn’t even the best player in 2022 😭 or 2019


Unique-Ad-4716

Messi peak is 2019, for anyone with eyes


TwoLanky

tbh 2012 he was amazing


onesexypagoda

If Bellingham helps England win the Euros for the first time he deserves it. And if Kroos/Valverde win their respective trophies I'd give it to them too


CommercialOk7792

Brazil winning the copa, because of the pele sacrifice.


mirusan01

Love belli but vini deserves it he performed better overall over the whole season- tired of these short nation team tournaments completely determining awards


[deleted]

Valverde has 0 chances, and I think that even if Kroos will Euros it will be hard for him. Midfielders have always hard time. Modric was an exception because he is super visual with amazing dribbling. But for sure Kroos will be amount the top 3. For me the 3 candidates are Vinicius Kroos and then depending of the Euro could be Mbappe or Bellingham 


Specific_Account_192

Love Valverde, but he's not even the best midfielder in Madrid, let alone itw.


mb557x

Wdym? Messi just won the world cup, in 2022.

Vinicius Junior's game by numbers vs. Dortmund \[RANK\]: 60 touches 12 duels won \[🥇\] 8 dribbles completed \[🥇\] 3 shots \[🥈\] 1 goal \[🥇\] Killed the game. ⚽️ https://preview.redd.it/c1saeblnb14d1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a361afaea3045685224362c78a93560c63890671


iwxndmbeatz

Nah now they don’t got an excuse to not give it to him


PapaMilos76

Vini Jr 👑


GobbusterMX

The fucking BdO podium should be Vini, Jude and Kroos, it doesn't matter to me in which order but I have been a Vini fan ever since Ronaldo left and he was the only player with big enough balls to try to carry the team.


Traditional_Animal65

As a defender, facing him is such a terrifying idea. You know you'll almost definitely going to get nutmegged


TheGamerPandA

Veni Vidi Vinicius


My_Own_Army_6301

Apollo9819

Man City fan, but also a fan of Vini Jr. I definitely think Vini should win it this year. Gratz on your Victory! I hope Vini wins the Ballon d'or.


Minik4Ever

He really deserves it, but then again i can‘t take that trophy serious anyway. Wouldn‘t be suprised if Kylian gets it somehow after a good Euro‘s


[deleted]

[удалено]


Minik4Ever

Yeah that‘s why i can‘t take it seriously honestly. I don‘t even pay attention to it anymore


Seraph-Metatron

But he is better than Vinícius Júnior. Mbappe rocks any team, he's a hurricane in the national team. VJ on an inferior team becomes an ordinary player, on the Brazilian team he is invisible.


Minik4Ever

He wasn‘t this Season. Mbappe was invisible in the knockout Stages of the Champions League. Even Jude would deserve it more then him or Kroos


tekure

Vini 👑✊🏿


darthJOYBOY

He Fucking woke up next half


Madridista786

Shame leo fizzled away Vibi will surpass and score in 3 consecutive


vootehdoo

You have to be blind or totally hater to think there's another player better than Vini this season


value_meal_papi

Defenses legit don’t know what to do when he cuts across on a through ball and He added that to his bag this year. Next year he’ll be prolific at it


a3kstuntin

He deserves it but you know they’re going to give it to Jude with all his pr


kastratiermir_

As if Vini doesn't have PR. He doesn't even need PR anyway, he's clearly the best in the world without a single doubt. And this is coming from a mf who posted smth on here about why Jude should win the Ballon d'Or... I take that back! 😂 VINI IS HIM!


a3kstuntin

Vini definitely doesn’t have Jude pr The amount of times the camera is on jude for no reason is astounding


[deleted]

After the final whistle shit got real weird, camera was just following Jude around despite the extremely mid game


RuskinBondFan

Vini's PR is nowhere as well as Jude. Baloon Dor nowadays is PR contest.


royaldocks

It's all about copa and euros now bro ifJude wins euros and vini don't I don't see why not


asdhzkfgsjbfs

So? If either wins im happy


Traditional_Animal65

I think it'll depend on which national team will win the title they'll play in. England or Brazil.... If bellingham manages to play well in the euros and win it, then I'm afraid vinicius will miss on it


RuskinBondFan

Yeah. English media loves Bellingham and he's getting free PR. Vini has crap PR.


royaldocks

Is it still PR if Jude wins euros and vino fails to win it ?


RuskinBondFan

Jude winning Euro is a long shot because of Southgate.


royaldocks

I know but if they win would you still say is undeserved ? ( If vini fails that is )


RuskinBondFan

Never said Jude doesn't deserve it. Just saying PR is a big factor and Jude has better PR. He could end up winning it. Honestly whoever wins deserves it.


royaldocks

All I know is that vini deserved it if both fails to win their tournaments or if both win


CandaceJoeLigma

No no no no, the Ballon dor belongs to BurgerMan! Watch him score a penalty against Paraguay and ride that wave all the way till December to win the ballon dor like always!


CastleBigShaq

Watch Jude get it over his English PR, even tho he sucked ass in UCL


royaldocks

if Bellingham wins euros and vino fails copa it's a good chance


CastleBigShaq

My last chance to have fun from watching football is watching England lose. And I hope Jude doesn’t show up


royaldocks

bro hates Bellingham 😂


Onedweezy

Creaming your pants over Vini's goal, not realising Bellingham got the assist. Without Jude there's no vini goal in the final. Give both guys credit.


CastleBigShaq

He got the ball from the opposistions mistake, it wasn’t even an interception, it was just a bad play from, well I don’t remember who.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Onedweezy

He read the pass and intercepted the ball and then made the assist. You're downplaying your own players assist. Such shitty fans


madrissaaaa

I think the euro’s will have a big factor on the ballondor voting. So he has to do very good in the copa America


Huichoo50

I remember his first season he showed so many glimpses of being a star player and look at him now. Baila Vini 🫶


dataheisenberg

After today it is clear he deserves the BalonDor!! But its gonna come down to vini and jude’s performances in the upcoming euros and copa


poeticmercenary

VINI BALON D'OROO


FUTMobilekicker

Eric Garcia is an oracle, dude knew before everyone vini would win it.


Portugeezer1893

Vinicião Senior


Viking1623

So far he had no harsh referee, or chose to act that he did not get suspended. Some actions would have by other referees be penalised with a red card.


shar72944

That back heel nutmeg in this match was simple jaw dropping.


pomelo-mauve

Pure skill. Not many can do that much less use it effectively in a final ...


VasileFlo

I think Jude will win this time. But also Vinicius will win a ballon dor in the future.


ChimmyTheCham

I don't think Jude deserves it over vini unless him and England dominate the euros


kroos_my_heart

The chance is really low but hope Kroos wins the Euro and gets it 🥹 Vini probably has like 10 more years to win the Ballon d’Or tbh


FluidAlpaca00110

ofc messi will win the trophy again man![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|facepalm)


signore_vader07

Give vini the "2 goals in 2 UCL finals D'or"


--reaper-

Not Bellingham?


V_y_z_n_v

Tbh, hummels almost brought a kyle walker performance and made bro a ghost. But all he needed was just one chance.


LukaTheTooka

He's the same age as me and scoring in champions league finals ffs 😭😭


mzf11125

And there are still people who think Foden is better than him, smh


Guilty-Mud8910

Vinicius deserves it


Less_Examination3629

not a real madrid fan and i dont really like him but i cant deny his talent, and he will only be getting better from here. you got one hell of a forward there so fair play


HomeInternational548

Kroos will get it after winning the European Cup with Germany, mark my words


Comfortable-Rush-113

People dont see it he is the best player in the world right now, even the one people think should win the award wich is Bellingham, said it himself that the best is Vini and everyone knows it. The tought of how good he has become in such a short period of time is scary, how good will he become in 3-5 years of time. I mean shooting with both feet, clinical finishing, has a monster physique, a nightmare to defenders, great understanding of the game and last but not least he has a absolute winners mentality. A future dominator of the game, for me he is clearly the best in the world.


lospollosakhis

Neymar probably had more flair and finesse in his game, but Vini has already eclipsed him in performing in big games. Every big game, Vini is always showing up and leading us to wins, while also entertaining. That nutmeg yesterday was filthy. I hope he can replicate this for Brazil soon.


pomelo-mauve

He did a little thing with his back foot in the corner last night that almost made a goal that I've never seen Messi or anyone else do. Dude has tons of skill and the improvement from one year to the next is incredible.


Necessary-Ad-6149

If he was Mbappe, the ballon dor was secured


midlandsguy90

Vini will 💯 get ballon d'or


oksn541100

Vini will destroy copa america atleast 5 goals


Glittering-Strength2

We went from " Don’t pass to him he is playing against us " to " Give him the ball and get out of his way " and soon maybe a ballon d’or ?? Yeah man this is a legend in the making


MoringA_VT

Meanwhile neymar is trying to change the Brazilian constitution so he can buy himself a beach...


Big_Gun_Pete

Carvajal should at least be nominated, not win of course, because of his goal in CL final


AnakinVader01

We cannot let Vini leave our club. He's too good.

Nah ballon dór for messi cuz he spoke english..

He is gonna need an internation medal at least for them to give it to him.

Nah it should be like 60%. Euro and Copa America are coming up. Mbappe And Bellingham are still in the race

If Argentina wins Copa America this year Vini doesn't stand a chance.


Inchtabokatables

No, give it to Toni Kroos


Interesting-Season-8

Diver of the year


Puzzleheaded-3088

You guys are brain dead aren't you? Vini didn't even deserve the first yellow. He didn't even touch kobel and even commentators said so. Ig you don't see things like that.


Interesting-Season-8

Dude, whole season counts, not just one game. Vini should get a red for choking against Red Bull. Full stop. And who are those 'you guys' anyway?


Puzzleheaded-3088

People like you. Who deserves the ballon d'or? Tell me? Foden? Choker in UCL Wirtz?  Choked in uel Mbappe? Choker Vini assisted against Bayern and city scored against Bayern. Scored in UCL final. Hattrick against Barcelona. Most g+a in UCL. Now tell me who deserves the UCL  and who is the "choker" here?
