Benzema Ballon d'Or, nine out of ten???
Messi's loss of the Golden Globe 30-man shortlist has caused controversy and lamentation, but Benzema has become the number one favorite of the Golden Globe Awards, and opponents, teammates, celebrities and the media are all unifying to create momentum for Benzema, and the Frenchman's odds for the Golden Globes have been as low as 1.04, which is a ten-out-nine stability. "By what" is not a new topic, but the reason is convincing - the Frenchman was able to lift three championship trophies last season, and he scored 44 goals in 46 games, which is a veritable goalscoring machine.
To refine the results, it is not simply to symmetrically "the best No. 9" in the tone of the president of Real Madrid with the top scorer honor of the La Liga Golden Boot and the Champions League Golden Boot, but Benzema has achieved a breakthrough on the old and strong trajectory. Specifically, he lifted the La Liga Golden Boot with a gesture that broke his single-season La Liga goal record, and he was also the first Frenchman in La Liga history to win the Golden Boot; He crowned the Champions League Golden Boot with the oldest hat-trick maker in the history of the Champions League, and it is worth mentioning that Benzema was the first French player to win the Golden Boot after the Restructuring of the Champions League, and he scored 10 goals in the knockout stage, also equaling the single-season Champions League knockout goal record set by C Ronaldo.
The two "firsts" are somewhat late to the 35-year-old Benzema, but the truth that a good meal is not afraid of late is a perfect verification of the alternative heavenly reward that belongs to Benzema. Joy is mixed with regret, after all, at the time of Lyon's debut, Benzema was labeled "a combination of Ronaldo and Zidane", when he was wearing a white Lyon shirt like a wind-like man, the good play of speed and passion stimulated the eyeballs from time to time, scoring his debut goal in the Champions League at the age of 17, winning the Ligue 1 top scorer and player of the year at the age of 21, and landing on the Galaxy with C Ronaldo and Kaka at the age of 22.
Growing up from the age of 22 to 35, Benzema seemed to have had a smooth sailing, after all, he enjoyed the title of "king" at the moment, and the way he turned the tide in the past season was deeply rooted in people's hearts. But in fact, he has also experienced the mud of unsatisfactory expectations, in the first season of Real Madrid Benzema's playing time was squeezed by Higuain, the goal dropped to single digits, and the transfer fee of 35 million euros lost the initial wind rating of "good value for money"; Benzema, who squandered consecutive scoring opportunities against Valencia in 2017-18, was booed by Real Madrid fans, when the front-page headlines described the Frenchman as "blind", and the terrible thing was that he experienced two taunts from his own fans this season; Even though he set a single-season personal scoring record for Real Madrid in 30 goals in the 2018-19 season, Benzema did not avoid the fire of public opinion in the context of Real Madrid's "four empty".
The track of the competitive world is full of uncertainty, although Benzema has called himself "F1 car" in the comparison with Giroud, but there are also times when he rushes out of the track, being squeezed into the bench by Higuain is just a temporary worry, playing C Ronaldo's green leaf is the media has long liked the theme of abundance, even if the pull-edge attributes and assist skills have counteracted the doubts and received applause for Benzema, but the sound of "holding one and stepping on one" has not completely disappeared. No striker hates scoring fewer goals, and Benzema is no exception, but at that time many people had been "deceived" by his spirit of sacrifice, and the proposal to call for the introduction of a replacement was not once around the minds of the Real Madrid executives, gradually forgetting that Benzema was the proud man of heaven who scored in Ligue 1, and if the Ballon d'Or was granted, Benzema officially completed a gorgeous turn.
People who know nothing but talk about it will not sway Benzema's sense of mission to be proud of serving Real Madrid, and if time is judged, Benzema is the real winner. In the four seasons that Cristiano Ronaldo has bid farewell to Real Madrid, Benzema has perfectly interpreted the personal value of full firepower - 30 goals in 53 games, 27 goals in 48 games, 30 goals in 46 games, 44 goals in 46 games. If you need to beautify the image of heroism, last season's Benzema also consolidated and continued his title as the assist king in The history of real Madrid, scoring + assisting, the hidden Benzema is not a so-called new student, but freely switch between two modes of dedication, Ancelotti understands him - "Benzema is not just a striker." Cassie saw him as omnipotent.
Zidane and Ronaldo two big coffee in last season more than once for Benzema call, obviously not from the real Madrid celebrity's selfishness, heroes cherish the hero's conditioned reflex is the truth, before Benzema in the public opinion after 6 years to return to the French national team, it turns out that the old gun on the big stage of the European Cup is not rusty at all, and even dwarfed the rising star Mbappe.
The Ballon d'Or is just around the corner, and the award criteria are not even premised on the direction of the Qatar World Cup, but Benzema, who has survived, has the capital and desire to hit the iron while it is hot, and at the European Super Cup that ended not long ago, Benzema once again warmed up for the new season with goals and championships, the difference is that this is the first time he has lifted the trophy as the captain of Real Madrid. Other than that? Benzema took advantage of the situation to create a new topic, becoming the second-oldest goalscorer in the history of the European Super Cup at 34 years and 234 days, and he chased Hento with 23 crowns, becoming the second most-won player in Real Madrid's history, behind Marcelo.
With the 5th European Super Cup in the history of the team to predict the prospects of the new season, Real Madrid has every reason to be the favorite to win the championship on all fronts, not to mention benzema's goal color, if a heavyweight object is needed as a reference, the Frenchman did a timely rain before the start of the new season - he surpassed Raul to become the second-largest scorer in Real Madrid history, and the efficiency was far away from the former Ring King.
Perhaps, surpassing Ronaldo's goal record is a profound and distant topic, but Benzema, who has been doing his own, is not afraid of being compared, otherwise he would not have played for Real Madrid for thirteen years, and going with the flow is the key mentality to define his success or not, from flowers to green leaves, from green leaves to flowers, not a role change, but a test process of the first time to see gold in the waves. For the Ballon d'Or, Benzema, who was named to the roster for the 11th time, deserves to be had.
