Fellow Member from El Chiringuito Puts Barça Down with an Epic Swipe

Despite the holiday break, debates about current soccer events continue. One of the most striking is centered around the figure of Leo Messi. The Argentine player will return to the competitive forefront this summer for the Club World Cup, in which Inter Miami participates.

Be that as it may, Real Madrid is still focused on achieving and maintaining the lead in LaLiga and qualifying for the knockout rounds of the Champions League. To do this, they must leave behind all kinds of debates, especially those involving certain individual awards like the Ballon d'Or.

The controversy surrounding this award, organized by UEFA and France Football in October, has widened the gap between the entity presided over by Aleksander Ceferin and Real Madrid. It has also left a curious statement from the Whites, which downplays all those individual awards... even when their own players come out winners.

This change of opinion was evident with the celebration of "The Best", FIFA's gala where Madrid triumphed completely. The possibility of seeing Messi lifting a Ballon d'Or is up for debate on El Chiringuito de Jugones, where Luco Cortés points out that "he's the best player in history".

"Vinícius and Bellingham are very good players, but by no means are they going to become the best players in history". For this panelist, "that comparison goes nowhere". While it's true that his arguments sound convincing, Evuy seems to have another appreciation on the matter: "I buy it, I buy it".

This panelist recaps the situation: "we can't compare them because he has a thousand Ballon d'Ors", just before dropping a harsh statement. Evuy asks that "from now on, Luco should never compare any team with Madrid because until a team reaches Madrid's 15 Champions... ". "Let's talk about something else," concludes the Madrid commentator.

With that resolution to the debate proposed on 'El Chiringuito de Jugones', the differences between Madrid and the rest of the elite European teams are accentuated. Only the distance that the white team has from the second team with the most Champions League is enough to prove it's the best club.

At the same time, the competitive differences between FC Barcelona of Leo Messi and Real Madrid of the same era are recalled. The white club still has more titles than the blue and garnet team and even expanded its legend by winning three consecutive Champions Leagues.
