So yes, his accolades speak for themselves when it comes to Ballon d'Or voting. I think you could make strong cases for Griezmann and Ronaldo for Ballon d'or, but Modric was no slouch this past season and is a deserving recipient.
Kind of odd to vehemently argue Modric doesn't deserve it, but not really point out another player that clearly deserves it over him.

I clearly did point out players who deserved it more, if you were not so offended you would’ve read the players I believed were better.
