Real on their way to be the first ones to defend CL meanwhile Barca get trashed by every decent team.
What a great time to live in.
I'm sorry but I will not cosnider them the best club in Europe even if they do win the CL this year, they can win all the robbed titles they want with easy draws, offside goals and red cards against their opponent, but nobody will remember this team of give to fucks the second after they did it.
They do not play good football or dominate in any way, their past 2 CLs has primarily come down to luck and goals at the death. In 10 years nobody will remember this Madrid side or mention their names at all when discussing the top club teams of all time, they can will 5 more CLs, nothing will change this simple fact.
When Barcelona wins Champions Leagues they are by far the best team in the world and can slaugher every single club side in the planet on any night, when Madrid win the CL, they take the conventional route - refs + draws + luck. Apart from that Chelsea game in 2009, we could have faced any team in the CL with any refs officiating and still won the title handily, RM definitely could not have, that is the difference.
