Aguero Says Messi Is the Player Everyone Loves to Watch Even If Ronaldo Fans Don’t
Manchester City legend Sergio Aguero has taken a light jab at Cristiano Ronaldo while praising Lionel Messi as one of the best players in football history. Speaking with talkSPORT, the former Argentina striker highlighted Messi’s impact at Inter Miami, saying the club had little to celebrate before the 8-time Ballon d’Or winner joined.
Aguero said, “It’s a big deal for Inter Miami, especially with Leo there. Even if it hurts some Ronaldo fans, Messi is one of those players everyone wants to watch.”
He pointed out that since Messi arrived, Inter Miami has lifted trophies they had never won before, including the MLS title in 2023 and the Supporters’ Shield in 2024. In contrast, Ronaldo, who plays for Al Nassr in Saudi Arabia, has only managed to win the Arab Club Champions Cup since joining the team.
Former footballer Thierry Henry has shared his thoughts on Arsenal’s match following their loss to Atlético Madrid on October 13.
Speaking during a brief interview on CBS Sports, Henry criticised the practice of players or coaches expressing certain opinions through the media instead of addressing issues directly within the dressing room.
“I’m not a coach anymore, but I always say, whoever speaks like that, out. Keep that in the dressing room, it’s as simple as that,” Henry said on CBS Sports.
“That is the only way it can work. You have to say those things to a person’s face… going through the press, I am not really a fan of that.”
Paris Saint-Germain manager Luis Enrique has shared his thoughts on the 2026 Ballon d’Or award, revealing that he hopes the winner will come from his team.
The manager spoke about how hard his players have worked and expressed his belief that they deserve the recognition.
“What I hope is that we win this trophy. We have players who deserve it.”
“Last year, we were the best team. We showed that it wasn’t just Ousmane Dembélé who deserved it.”
French football pundit Walid Acherchour has named Lamine Yamal as his pick to win the 2026 Ballon d’Or, sparking reactions among football fans.
Acherchour’s choice came as a surprise to some fans, who expected him to support fellow Frenchman Kylian Mbappé instead.
Speaking about his prediction, Acherchour expressed confidence in Yamal’s chances of winning the prestigious individual award.
“For me, Lamine Yamal, he is going to get it [2026 Ballon d’Or]. For me, there’s no doubt anymore,” Acherchour said, as quoted by Actu Foot. That start to the season shows that in fact, he was injured during the World Cup. He was the best player in La Liga, and he won the World Cup.
“Even if, for me, in fact, he doesn’t have the Ballon d’Or unanimously because his World Cup was average, even being average, he won it with Spain. He won La Liga with Barça.”
