Nah
We were good enough
Didn't have luck like Madrid did today that's all
I am ooot
Like I said it's not luck, it's individual quality by going for the best players all the time. Real Madrid knew Navas wasn't good enough EVEN though they won 4 UCLs with him and immediately replaced him Tib EVEN THOUGH he wasn't even declining.
Tib pulled off a MOTM today and repaid that goodwill.
If Navas was at Barcelona and won 4 UCLs with us, I guarantee you he'd still be with us at the age of 38 because we're a bunch of sentimentalist fuckers that overreward players that do well.
No, we overreward even players that don't do well.
Ter Stegen would've been binned from Madrid 5 years ago.
That's the difference between Madrid and Barcelona
Not luck, not "mentality"
It's recruitment. They care about having the best players, we for some reason do not.
