I will never forget that.
Makes Cholo's words even more real. Next season LFP will do everything to make Madrid win.

Very convenient. Rm and Spain are just fucked up. I would love to see our players boycott the Spanish team in protest. Whenever we are going strong they bring up this and Neymar case. This is a conspiracy not a conspiracy theory.

The fact that no Barça player has ever been player of the month is just laugh worthy. Proves again how Real Madrid based La Liga is, they will always be the club that has to win.
Ronaldo getting the reward after his amazing stand out performances in May(sarcasm)
Who choses the awards?
Is it a public vote or a panel?

Panel, LFP & La Liga decide I think. None of our managers has ever won manager of the month either by the way.
If this was fan voted it would always be between Messi & Ronaldo.

Almost all casuals don't, they think Barca gets favoured just as much, even more in Europe and its just us being whiny with an inferiority complex obessing over Madrid.
I actually got banned on several football forums mentioning RM media, smear campaigns,penaldos and etxreme ref bias. It was viewed as extreme provocing rather than at the very least an uncommon opinion.
I think outside of Spain and international Barca fans, an overhwelming majority is unaware about the bias.

Yeah I know.Thing is, we are lucky enough to watch all of Messi's games these days, via internet streams/ great tv coverage etc right ? Back in the day that wasn't the case.All we got to see of Pele/Maradona etc were mostly during WC's, not every league/cup or international game like we see now.
That's why I say he's the best player I've seen, as I get to see pretty much all his games on tv/internet or occasionally live at Camp Nou.
The coverage is pretty complete now, so it's difficult to compare I think.
I just don't like this GOAT thing I guess

Agree to some extent, but they will (and have) said that Messi himself gained financially by this, so he is culpable.

After reading a bunch of stuff on Messi and the upcoming trial and possible scenarios, suddenly I got some chills down my spine.
Worst case and a unlikely scenario is that he actually goes to jail and serves time, which is unimaginable. Best case scenario is he is acquitted, but there will be some damage done regardless, mostly on his reputation (will it affect his Ballon d'Or chances?). What is between the two extreme is that he and his father are found guilty, pay a hefty fine to avoid serving time in jail, which is a plausible scenario. But I can't even start to imagine the damage that is going to do to Messi himself (his state of mind, his mentality, his outlook on his professional career and stuff) if he is ever found guilty. He probably won't be able to focus so much on training and playing, his form might take a nose dive and he might be so fed up that he decides to leave us and that country called Spain altogether.
I can't even start to imagine. I am terrified.

Certainly RM managers are whispering on Spanish judges' ear to punish him. I can't even imagine how much worse it was in Franco's ditatorship. Real Madrid and Spanish biased press can't stop Messi on pitch so they're using the corrupt Spanish judiciary system to stop him by any means.
This is very true here,fans here are aware of the Spanish bias towards RM. They probably believe that RM won all its league honours by exclusively honest means. When I told a bunch of friends that in Franco's times Barcelona players used to be threatened being arrested or even killed if they beat the establishment team, most of them didn't believe me and thought I was just envious of "RM success". Fortunately a friend of mine who is an History and football enthusiast confirmed my report so that I wouldn't sound like a liar. I would't doubt that those 5 Champions League honours involved lots of corruption and power as well.

Don't worry, they can't do a damn thing to him. It's their last pathetic attempt and they'll achieve shit. The world also will realize how full of hatred those fascist bastards are.
