If 2020 weren't disorientating enough, we're not even bickering about the Ballon d'Or shortlist this year. 

For obvious reasons, this year's ceremony has been cancelled and may we say, Robert Lewandowski has been robbed.

The award has faced plenty of criticism over the years. Philipp Lahm famously dismissed it as a goalscoring contest and Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo reigned supreme for a decade. 

Then, when the duopoly was finally broken, Luka Modric's triumph was greeted with scepticism by many. 

All that being said, it remains the benchmark for measuring the best players in world football. 

It also says a lot about the strength of Europe's top five leagues. In the past few years, Premier League nominees have been much rarer, but there was a time when the shortlists were full of English-based superstars. 

With that in mind, we've trawled through the archives - well, in the modern era since 1992 - to answer which clubs have had the most players nominated. 

Where a player changed clubs that year, both sides have got one credit, as per the shortlist. 

It's good news for Manchester United, who have boasted far and away the most nominees.
