If that were the case for Barca. Note the date from their last league, cup or CL victory. Note who is still around on this forum in 10 years time.

Serious question here, where did the money go? I know we squandered some of it on Griezmann, Dembele and Coutinho but even Madrid had high profile transfers too. How is it that our coffers are completely gone whereas Madrid ended up making profit within the past few years despite spunking 150m on Hazard?
Did the absurd wages in our club make that much of a difference in depleting our financial resources? Even then I'm finding it hard to believe there was that much of a discrepancy in wages between Barcelona and Real Madrid. Like seriously guys, what the fuck happened?

In 10 years time, we will be decent contenders for LL/CL while City will have faded into obscurity post Pep.

When I said that Barca won't be in top5 in Europe, I didn't mean on a single season but overall.
For example, if a neutral would have to name top5 clubs of a decade 2010-2020ish, those would be:
1. Real 4 CLs
2. Bayern 2+1
3-4. Barca, Chelsea 2 Cls
5. Liverpool
Honorary mention: Atletico Madrid, 2 finals
So, if Tottenham or someone played one final, they are not suddenly a top5 club in Europe.
In that sense, I said: overall, Barca will be miles away from a Top5 in the next decade.

It is wonderful when somebody’s post on here, always brings me out in laughter. Their obsession is my joy.
I seem to remember that we won the EPL on more than one occasion pre Pep. I am delighted to win it with Pep. I am confident of winning it post Pep.
Not that I take lightly the opposition. When one has to contend with Liverpool, Chelsea , United plus Spurs, Arsenal and the rest of the EPL, to win it is exceptional.
As always, I rest my case, I allow you to have the last word.
I am still laughing.
Have a wonderful evening.
Those "foundations" will certainly be tested once Pep leaves, sure he can spend whatever he wants at that club, but the value for their money has still been much better than say, United, and a lot of that has to do with the manager(s).
Speaking of which, thats a club that was supposed to be well set up post-Fergie, but they collapsed(relatively speaking) like a house of cards without him.

Ah, but that's no problem.
Bayern Munich weren't top 5 in 00s for example. We were top 3 in both 00s and 10s, so not a biggie if we're not in 20s. Actually, I think we were top 5 in the 90s as well. Won many league titles, and won a CL + made another final.
Would actually be pretty damn rare to be a top 5 club consistently for 40 fucking years.

Nah, Madrid won 2 CLs. 2000 and 2002. Bayern miss out IMO. Their 2010 final goes for 2010s.

1999-2000 season. Counts for 90s IMO. Or have I got it mixed up?
Yea, could go either way I guess. But that's the thing, all clubs have ups and downs. It's stiff competition at the very top.
