Pascal Ferré defends himself
While Lionel Messi had offered on Monday to award a Ballon d’Or to Lewandowski, the editor-in-chief of France Football assured that this would perhaps be studied by France Football, even if it was of course not Messi who had the final decision on this. “It does not call for any response for the moment, because we will not respond to all the injunctions. But the message was rather classy and fair play. At the same time, Lewandowski deserves all the fair play shown around of him because he himself showed great elegance vis-à-vis Messi and the Ballon d’Or institution. He’s not the one who sets the rules, we’re going to set them a little bit anyway (laughs) We will never know if Lewandowski would have had it last year since the vote never took place. he was a big favorite because he had crushed his whole class, his talent, the year. But we can not know if the impression that could be that of many would have been reflected in this way “, assures Ferré, while he also spoke of the coronation of “La Pulga”, ensuring that it was totally deserved.
“When I hear some say that the Golden Ball has lost its aura, its credit, because Leo Messi won a seventh Golden Ball. It’s Leo Messi we are talking about! One of the five greatest players of all time. Leo Messi! He is not a Carquefou player. He undoubtedly took advantage of his anteriority in the head of the jurors “, declares Ferré, who certifies that Messi deserves his Ballon d’Or . On the side of Carquefou in any case, we will appreciate or not the highlighting.
