Real Madrid vs Barcelona: Player Vs Player

Posted on 05. Jan, 2010 by Borris Becker in General

Ok a quick post today just to let you know that I will be starting a series which I decided to call as “Real Madrid vs Barcelona”. In this series I will be comparing Real Madrid and Barcelona players, position for position and see which team is the best in terms of teamwork and in terms of individual talent.

It is going to be fun for me to write this kind of stuff as I always enjoy comparing Real Madrid to any team, let alone Barcelona.

Real Madrid must always strive to be the best and it is this philosophy which has given Real Madrid the history that it currently has.

No club in in the world can boast as many MAJOR titles as Real Madrid despite the turmoil the club has been going through for the past 6 or 7 years.

Managers might have been changed a lot and so was the squad but that did not detract Real Madrid from signing the best players and winning the most important trophies, though we have been extremely unlucky in the Champions League for the past 6 or 7 years. Seriously, we have been. Yes we have played poor football many times against top European teams but the referees and the players themselves have not helped either.

Anyway, just to recap the news for today.

Vidic thinks that Rooney is more important to Manchester United than Ronaldo ever was so there is no way Manchester United are going to let Wayne Rooney leave Machester United for any team, especially Real Madrid.

Well, I am one of those who have admired Rooney for a long time and in fact I do rate him higher than some of the players with more flashy tricks and a better looking faces. The thing with Rooney is that, he has the talent that othe top players have like Kaka, Ronaldinho, Ronaldo, Messi and Ibra but the thing he has and none of the aforementioned guys do not have is his will to win, his work rate and his desire not to give up. In other words, Rooney does almost an unthinkable amount of work off the ball which none of the top players (ranked by FIFA) do. For this reason I would rather have Rooney and Gerrard in my team rather than Kaka and Ibrahimovic.

In other news, Real Madrid blew the chance to go top of La Liga by only managing a draw against Ossasuna. We should not be disheartened by this result. All the big teams looked rusty after the Christmas break and Real Madrid were no different. The important thing was that we kept on fighting till the end and did not concede any goal. Higuain had two sitters to score from but he missed them both and he does this a lot of times. Scores when you least expect him to score and misses when you least expect him to. Anyway, Real Madrid will have chances in the future as well. For me, as I said last year. The minimum we need to do is to stay within 3 points of Barcelona because beating Barcelona in the next derby is a must no matter what the league positions are. There is no way Perez or any Real Madrid fan is going to tolerate loosing to Barcelona two times in a single season.

That was it for today and I hope to seeing you tomorrow for my new SERIES.
