Buenafuente's Joke about Mbappé and Barça That Backfires, Very Hasty

The comedian attacks the French player in his Christmas monologue

Andreu Buenafuente is making waves with his Christmas monologue on TV3. The comedian has reviewed 2024 in a peculiar way and didn't miss the opportunity to attack Real Madrid. However, the white club has ended the year ahead of Barça with one game less.

Everything has to do with the arrival of Kylian Mbappé and the 0-4 in the last Clásico. It's curious that they've focused on that game from October. As is being seen, leagues aren't won in that first part of the championship.

Since then, Hansi Flick's team has considerably worsened its performance. However, Buenafuente has tried to "poke fun" at Madrid. Although, really, it's not funny at all.

"Real Madrid finally transfers Mbappé and it turns out that some kids from La Masía who are in high school play better," he stated. The truth is he's rushed too much. There's a lot of the season left, and there's also another direct confrontation between both teams.

Indifference

This, evidently, has reached the noble area of Chamartín. Despite being in the Christmas holidays, the white club is really calm and shows indifference about it.

In Valdebebas, they emphasize at all times that there's a lot left and that grades are given at the end of the course. Moreover, Mbappé has already considerably improved his game and is at a higher level than when he started. Within the entity, they're convinced he will continue to improve.

Even, contrary to what many might think, Florentino Pérez is happy with what he's seeing from one of his best transfers. The president knows very well how the white house works and understands that it has to go through an adaptation process.

Therefore, Madrid fans need to have that mentality and not rush like Buenafuente has. Since the match against Atalanta in Bergamo, he has improved considerably and is starting to show glimpses of his best version. Therefore, barring any surprises, he will continue to progress adequately.
