The famous journalist Tomás Roncero did not mince his words about the Catalan rival in his show “La Grada de Roncero”.
The Spanish journalist, known for his unconditional love of Real Madrid and his lyrical flights in the cult show “El Chiringuito de Jugones” answered questions from Internet users on AS TV. Roncero began his show with a tribute to Rafael Nadal who ended his career: “Rafa even managed to provoke emotions in me that Real Madrid didn't give me. I'm serious. I've always identified with him in particular for his resilience. It's like a Real Madrid player leaving.
Subsequently, he praised Luis de la Fuente's Roja which has a string of victories (2-1 against Denmark and 3-2 against Switzerland) and which is riding the positive dynamic launched by the coronation at the 'Euro 2024: “This team is magnificent to watch play. Luis de la Fuente has done a fantastic job. Spain are clear favorites for the 2026 World Cup. We are already aiming for a third title with him in March. Spain could face either Germany, a revenge of the Euro, or Portugal of my Cristiano, or Croatia of Lukita. People identify with this young Spanish team which is radiant.
Regarding the situation of Real Madrid in La Liga, Roncero wants to be positive and full of hope for the future of events: “Real Madrid will resume La Liga with great motivation to come back against Barça. The defeat of the Catalans, facing to a magnificent Real Sociedad, has completely relaunched the title race In addition, FC Barcelona travels to Celta Vigo this Saturday, a trip always perilous to a surprise team this season. Real Madrid will travel to Leganés and. I see a draw between Celta and Barça. Real Madrid would then come back to four points behind Barça, or even just one point in the event of a victory against Valencia (delayed match already celebrating the La Liga title in November). is a big mistake on Barça's part.”
Furthermore, he was also optimistic about Kylian Mbappé's difficult situation: “I believe that Mbappé will return to his best level. He is a great champion. He has already won the World Cup and almost win a second with a historic hat-trick in the final against Argentina He will meet the hopes and expectations that we have around him, I am sure of it.
Regarding Carlo Ancelotti, Roncero was clear and precise: “I hope he will still be here next season. People quickly forget everything he has done at Real Madrid. During the last three years, he has won two Champions Leagues and two Spanish championships. It's more than honorable. Carlo Ancelotti is a great coach.
Finally, he wanted to make a declaration of love to the Santiago Bernabéu: “It is the most beautiful stadium in the world. It has the scent of grandeur, of history, of honor, of the irrational, impossible dreams accomplished. How can I not love you if you are European champion once again”…
