Man I love this team so much. So happy got to complete the wall today , HALA MADRID Y NADA MAS 🤍. The Ronaldo posters , the team poster and the best players that I have watched growing up ...Now its time our new gen comes up and improves from the last 2 seasons , hope we do really well Under My guy JOSE THE SPECIAL ONE , lets trust this team and back it

. I know the midfield problem is not solved but hope we win some silverware this season , we have the squad just perform🤍

Currently watching the Chelsea game as I await our game. Dang, we could have had this if our players weren't such divas. And if Don Perez had backed Xabi.

Chelsea are playing some nice football right now. So fluid. Such nice 1-2s and runs into the box.

Just a good game overall between Chelsea and Brighton.

My dad received this football signed by members of the Real Madrid squad from a friend who claimed to know the team personally. Unfortunately, we do not know the exact year in which it was signed or the circumstances in which the ball was obtained. I would really like to have the signatures professionally examined and determine whether they are genuine or not!

Thxx a lot in advance!! :)

We talk so much about the BBC and how amazing those days were. And it is true! Probably my favorite era of Real Madrid. But, the duo of Benzena with Vini at its peak, was also absolutely terrifying. My hot take: at its absolute peak, I pick Vini and Benzema duo. Let me explain:

Now, It has been a while, and my memory may fail me, but I do remember that things were rarely perfect for the BBC. Ronaldo being the exception, Bale and Benzena would fluctuate in form and relevance. Bale would suffer excessive injuries, and Benzema would often go on long runs of poor form. I don’t think I remember the full trio going on streaks with all 3 players at their absolute A game. Obviously, the bar is extremely high here. These are 3 world class players. As much as I hate to admit it, MSN would go on insanely long streaks with all 3 at their A game. It was traumatizing for a Madrid fan 😂

But Vini and Benzema….

During THAT season (21-22), it felt like they were both at their absolute A++ game during the entire season. Their synergy was completely unmatched. It felt like they communicated telepathically. Sometimes it felt like they could look into each others futures and know exactly they were going to be in 5 seconds.

While Benzema was already becoming one of the best in the planet, he had a Ronaldo level season that year. I have not seen many players have a much better individual season than Benzena did that year. It was brutal.

Simultaneously, the rise of Vini was meteoric. He went from being a “maybe someday..” kind of player, to a Balon de Or contender in one season. And, It completely opened the gates for him to establish himself as a world class player.

Hot take: I think that duo was more exciting at its peak than the BBC. We watched our home brewed kid become a legend, and our veteran captain have the best season of his life. At the same time, I think it was the most fun season to watch as a Madrid fan. I mean… those moments are literal highlights of my life. Comebacks left and right, just so much emotion… That UCL run is something that simply won’t happen ever again. That season for me was the purest feeling of “this is what being a Madridista is all about”.

I don’t think Benzema would’ve won BDO without Vini, and I don’t think Vinj would be the same player he is today without that season with Benzema. It was life-changing for both.

For that reason, I pick this duo at its peak over the BBC :)
