FC Barcelona legend Lionel Messi talked in an interview with Infobae where he admitted that Real Madrid is the “best team in the world right now.”

“If we’re talking results, it’s Real Madrid. If we’re talking playing style, I personally like Guardiola’s Manchester City a lot and I believe that every team he coaches will be special. Playing style, Manchester City are the best. Results, it’s Real Madrid,” he explained.

Messi’s statement shouldn’t be surprising considering that Real Madrid conquered another Liga-Champions League double this year. Of course he went out of his way to suggest that Manchester City play better football than Real Madrid, but that’s expected knowing that he still has a good relationship with Pep Guardiola.

Real Madrid have indeed been the world’s best team this year and one madridista should definitely win the upcoming Ballon D’Or, so Messi is right.

Great truth from the GOAT. Somebody somewhere in the desert league will still share a different opinion that his team in the desert is the best even when his team is not the best in the desert

"Real Madrid is the best team, but Man City plays better football"

~GOAT among goats.

Before nko😏

Certainly...though not a fan of real Madrid but their winning mentally and team spirit is on overdrive...they have already conquered teams in their minds even before the game starts...the final of champions league this year is a testament of their mentality...I can only wish the blues could be this good

Greatest of all time.

Indeed for now and they have been doing a good buy for long,ronaldo,used their shine to improve his c.v,
As for barca,laporta and xavi,they are very very not the football passionate type,and it rubbing on the club,no opposition in laliga for now and some time to come

What about Man City?

Hala Madrid BTW

No analysis that will lead to paralysis. He's speaking fact. Ronaldo still better than you though.

Yes

So proud of a person, he wanted to say Ronaldo is the best, but because of pride and ego he said Madrid. Prideful imp.

When Ronaldo played for Real Madrid, they won the Championship 3 times if I am correct and consecutively.

You will need to constantly be lying to yourself.

una get bad mouth sha

Almiron:
Messi recognizing Real Madrid as the best team in the world this season even as the biggest Barca fan should tell you how honest he is. No bias. No drama. No bragging. Humility multiplied by 1 billion. You can't even h&te him. Your conscience will almost choke your arse up.

Word! Most madristers don't like messi because of the C. Ronaldo and Barcelona rivalry but deep down we admire him and know there may be no other player greater than him in our generation.

Respect.

This is the fact that Nigeria Barcelona fans will never agree.

Madrid play good football too

He being economical with the truth

In terms of entertaining/creative gameplay style of football, it's a draw.
