Let’s give this on to haaland and strip Modric of the one he won. By your logic Messi would still end up with 8 balón d or.
Why would Messi win the ballon d'or in the year Modric won?
Modric won, not just because he had good performances, but Madrid won the UCL and Croatia reached the final.
Messi may have been 'better', but his teams did not do well in the UCL or World Cup. Knocked out in UCL and World Cup in the Quarter Finals.
