On Monday night time, the ballon d’or awards ceremony was held in Paris – with Rodri of Manchester Metropolis being the winner. There have been loads of recognizable faces on the awards, together with various former footballers.
A type of individuals was George Weah, who stays to today, the one African participant to win the award, when he did so in 1995. Throughout the ceremony, Weah was requested “Any specific participant that impressed you?”
To which, he responded “Yeah, that is [Harry Kane] considered one of my gamers I like. I am a fan of Mr Kane. When he was enjoying for my workforce [Tottenham Hotspur]. My buddy. Excellent buddy, as a result of I consider that he is a really robust and intelligent striker. And I help the workforce of Tottenham since I used to be a child, after which, [when he started playing for Spurs] I like him.”
Fairly the co-sign for Kane to get, with Weah being such a legendary participant himself. Fairly a pity that he by no means ended up enjoying for Spurs, along with his temporary profession within the Premier League being at Chelsea and Manchester Metropolis.
Kane ended up ending tenth within the voting for the ballon d’or, and was awarded the Gerd Muller trophy, together with Kylian Mbappe, for being the very best goalscorers for membership and nation final season, with 52 objectives every.
It’s secure to say that the previous Spurs striker was in a much better temper than a present Spurs striker, Richarlison, who has not hid his displeasure at his worldwide workforce mate Vinicius Jr coming second within the award.

Secure to say, this is not taking place effectively with Spurs followers. Sooner or later after an embarrassing, humiliating defeat at Crystal Palace, and a participant, who got here on and did completely nothing, is on social media, ranting and raving concerning the ballon d’or. The phrase “learn the room” feels extraordinarily distinguished right here.
There was comparable frustration levelled at James Maddison, who took to social media to say how he has now performed 200 video games within the Premier League. At the least that’s considerably to do with the membership, given a bit of these have been in Lilywhite, even when additionally a bit tone deaf.
