Check out my Instagram post where I break it all down!

Messi and Ronaldo have also had class seasons doing what they’ve done throughout the entirety of their careers. Messi has knocked in 45 goals this season compared to Ronaldo and Salah’s 43 in all comps. For you non-fans, the Ballon D’Or is the equivalent of the MVP in all other sports, except...
