Tomás Roncero has offered his ranking of the 5 best players in the world. The Top footballers. In his selection, a big surprise: not all of them are from Real Madrid.
This is how Tomás Roncero explained his criteria for choosing the Top 5 worldwide:
"The first is Kylian Mbappé. He started the season with Vinícius as number one, but Mbappé, after his adaptation phase, has been decisive since December until now.
In speed, he is a marvel, and also in control and technique.
I place Vinícius in the Top 2, who was number one. Mbappé has taken him from there, but he hasn't displaced him to lower positions. When he is on fire, he remains a colossal player who wins matches on his own.
I place Bellingham in the Top 3 because I have memory and I see that he is on that line. He is the most unbelievable midfielder I see.
One from Barça Sneaks into Tomás Roncero's Top 5
I place Lamine Yamal in the Top 4. In the top 5, I make a division between the father and the son. The father is Luka Modric and the son Rodrygo Goes.
Both could be the 5. Modric remains the best midfielder in the world. Every time he gets the ball, it's different.
He almost got Croatia, which is a minor team, into the Final Four of the Nations League. Moreover, Croatia lost when they substituted him.
Rodrygo is the finest forward. I would say even finer than Lamine. He has fewer genius moments than Lamine, but when he enters the area, he has an understanding of the attacking game that I find fascinating.
Let it be clear that I value Lamine. I place him among the top five, and he is from Barça".
It is clear, then, that Tomás Roncero is indeed one of those who support the Spanish national team, even if it doesn't have Real Madrid players.
"It Excites Me That Catalans Are Willing to Die for Spain"
This is how he explained it in this other video, in which he sends a message to the Barça players who give their all when they play with the Spanish national team.
RONCERO y los jugadores del BARÇA en la SELECCIÓN: "VIVA la BUTIFARRA"
"You speak with disdain and say: "none from Madrid," and I speak with respect for the Barça players who play with Spain, because I love that they serve Spain. It excites me that Catalans serve Spain.
When I see Catalans willing to die for Spain, it gives me goosebumps. Seeing Cubarsí moved by the national anthem. That pride of feeling Spanish above all, that excites me, I have seen him cry.
"Maybe They Hadn't Told Him There, but Cubarsí Has Discovered That Being Spanish Is the Most Beautiful Thing in the World"
Perhaps they hadn't told the kid there, but thanks to the national team, he has discovered that being Spanish is the most beautiful thing in the world. Then you can be Manchego, Catalan, Basque...
But the most beautiful thing is being Spanish because it's a fiery red, passionate red. You get to the penalties, and Unai Simón, a guy from Vitoria, saves it.
Then a Canary Islander comes and scores the goal of glory. We are all united, and the Valencians...
The most beautiful thing is being united. Those threads that sometimes politicians divide, the Spanish national team unites.
There's a guy from Haro, Luis De la Fuente, a patriot who likes bullfighting, and he's a normal guy. He goes to mass on Sundays.
He goes to mass, he likes bullfighting, he's Spanish, it's okay. There's no need to be so strange and so different.
You have to be normal, like tortilla de patatas, and cocido, and paella and pa amb tomaquet, very tasty.
And the mongetes, when I go to Andorra, I stop in Catalonia and eat it. And the calçots and the butifarra. Long live the Catalan butifarra!"
