Predicting Which Stars Will Make The FIFPRO World 11, Will Messi's 18 YEAR Streak END? 👀 | The Rondo

December 5, 2024 Duration: 20:30
The FIFPRO World 11 will be revealed on December 9th, and we’re breaking down which football stars we think will make the cut. Can Messi continue his record-breaking streak with an 18th consecutive selection, or are we witnessing the end of an era for Messi and Ronaldo? 👀 This award has been around for almost 20 years, and we’re looking back at the players who’ve graced the list over time, from legends like Sergio Ramos and Xavi to icons like Ronaldo and Busquets 🐐 Unlike the Ballon d’Or, the FIFPRO World 11 is voted on by the players themselves, so does that make it more meaningful? Or does the Ballon d’Or remain the pinnacle of individual recognition in football? 🤔 Don’t forget to subscribe and turn on notifications to catch every episode of The Rondo! 🏆 Timestamps: Intro: (0:00) Predicting The 2024 FIFPRO World 11: (0:30) Should Christian Pulisic Be In The World 11: (2:54) Has Messi & Ronaldo's Reign Passed?: (5:21) Picking The ALL-TIME FIFPRO World 11: (6:03) The ANTI FIFPRO 11: (8:53) Does The FIFPRO World 11 Mean More Than The Ballon d’Or?: (13:57) Guess The World 11 Year: (15:18) #football #soccer #messi #ronaldo #fifpro #fifproworld11 #fifproworldxi #ballondor #christianpulisic #vinijr #haaland #premierleague #laliga #bundesliga #fifa #worldcup #realmadrid #barcelona #manchestercity #lamineyamal #mls Learn more about your ad choices.
