prefer to watch his team-mate Lionel Messi over
"genius" Real Madrid star Cristiano Ronaldo.
Ronaldo has taken centre stage this week in the
wake of a stunning hat-trick in Madrid's
Champions League win over city rivals Atletico.
But Messi is well clear atop the LaLiga goalscoring
charts, having netted 33 times to Ronaldo's 20.
Alba offered some praise for Ronaldo, but
predictably said his Argentine team-mate was
better.
"I don't know who decides the Ballon d'Or winner,
or the best in the world," he said on Thursday.
"Everybody has their own opinion. At one point,
Xavi or [Andres] Iniesta should have won it.
"You already know my opinion, because to me, Leo
Messi is the best player in the world.
"Cristiano is a great player who scores many
goals. He's a genius, if I said it any other way I'd
be lying.
"To watch on the pitch... I think people prefer Leo,
it doesn't matter which team you support."
