Ranking the Ballon d'Or Contenders

It's the big one this week as we take a look at the biggest individual prize in football, the Ballon d'Or-and who is are the contenders at this early stage! Rank God Sam Tighe picks his top 10, before Football Insider Dean Jones and host Jack Collins pick apart his arguments for who goes where. Sam's choices spark plenty of lively debate as ever, with plenty left to play for. In this week's Hot Takes, we take a look at how Brazil will fare in the Copa America without star man and talisman Neymar Jr., whether Crystal Palace's Aaron Wan-Bissaka is really the right man for Manchester United and Dean makes a dramatic U-Turn on whether Frank Lampard is the right man for the Chelsea job if Maurizio Sarri leaves for Juventus. Bleacher Roulette takes on more of the big questions: is Trent Alexander-Arnold the best right back in the game right now; would we rather have the career of Jordan Henderson or Christian Eriksen; and which goalkeeper would we trust to step up to take a penalty in a shootout-before Sam rounds things off by ranking which Disney characters would make the best Real Madrid Galacticos in nonsense rankings!
