The galácticos won nothing and were very unprofessional, like R9 being even overweight and their lockerroom smelling like alcohol. Meanwhile the Galácticos 2.0 won la décima, three peated the ucl, had with them the top and second top scorers of Real Madrid, and had 3 different ballon d’or winners which together gathered 7 ballon d’or awards. The second coming of the galácticos are probably the greatest team of winners in history, ironically the only thing they didn’t dominate was the spanish LaLiga.
Of course they are, no doubt. Quality and squad’s depth in 2014 and especially 2016 was outrageous. I have probably never seen so strong bench like Madrid’s in 2016.
Their subs during final were: Kiko Casilla, Nacho, Danilo, James Rodriguez, Isco, Jese and Lucas.
And Arbeloa, Varane, Kovacic or Odegaard were not even in match squad.
Who says they are?
but the second Galacticos had to wait for five years until their first UEFA Champions League trophy, while the first one only needed two years until they got the first and only UCL trophy in 2002. the issue is the lack of balance within the team: too many attacking outlets and almost-no strong defensive-minded transfers to replace Makelele, Karanka, Campo and Cambiasso.
Every day this sub makes me lose 5 IQ. Fuck outta here with these brain dead takes. ‘Unpopular opinion’ fuck off.
