Jude or Pedri? The Midfield Debate La Liga Fans Can’t Settle 🔥

IPJ leads the charge in breaking down why choosing between Bellingham and Pedri isn’t as simple as the stats suggest

Two generational midfielders. One impossible decision. In this must-watch Golazo segment, IPJ leads the conversation on the question every La Liga fan is asking: Who’s more important—Jude Bellingham or Pedri?

On one side, you have Bellingham—the goal-scoring, box-to-box engine fueling Real Madrid’s title run. “He’s sprinting, scoring, leading,” says IPJ. “Since he arrived, it’s 36 goals and 24 assists from midfield. That’s sensational.” Bellingham’s chaos is part of what makes him great—his ability to cover ground, turn matches in moments, and lead with energy when Madrid need it most.

But then there’s Pedri. Quieter, less flashy—but just as vital. “If Bellingham is chaos,” IPJ says, “Pedri is poetry.” While others chase headlines, Pedri connects every line, every transition, every phase. “If you’re looking at a car engine,” IPJ adds, “this guy is absolutely F1 for Barcelona.” He leads La Liga in passes into the attacking third—and it’s not even close.

While others on the panel lean toward Bellingham for his raw impact and leadership moments, IPJ urges a deeper view: “You have to recognize what Pedri does in possession. It’s not just stats—it’s control. It’s tempo. He rarely loses the ball, and that’s power.”

So… who would you take?
