Episode 168 | Why Kylian Mbappe Shouldn't Win The Ballon D'Or
The Ballon d’Or, the award Jonathan Wilson despises most. Our voteless trio discuss the merits of a shortlist that includes Rory Smith favourite Julian Quinones and ponders why the race is so open this year. What does it say about how we consume football? How do we weight individual success? Why shouldn't Fabian Ruiz collect the big gold gong at the London Palladium? Join James Horncastle, Wilson and Smith, AKA the journalists France Football overlooked for the voting panel in Italy, England and Scotland, to find out why Kylian Mbappe's fingerprints will not be all over an award that presumably had to be moved from Paris for its own safety.
