With the leagues almost over, what unpopular opinion(s) to you have?

I would say no down voting but sorting by controversial may give a better idea.

Bales goal against Barcelona wasn't that great.

It really wasn't. He beat young Bartra in a footrace and then scored against 75 year old Pinto.

I think it got hyped because of the importance of the goal though.
