when i say recent history in football i'll mean the last 10 years...

so yes it's selective based on you trying to reach a certain point , which is "hey look when i say 20 it will show we won more " irrelevant of "based on what " ..

not 30 and no 10 .. just 20 ...

so yeah your point of view in this travesty is ridiculous to say the least , not even a funny line of Simpson will make it better

the reason I didn't do a 10 year analysis, as I've said, is because you get teams that surge in decades and win things which puts them up there, but then they fail to continue that. the true test of a team is enduring success. which is why 20 years fits my schema perfectly: it has the immediacy of the last 10 years for very recent success but then has the background check of the previous 10, to see if this club are an enduring winner or a johnny come lately.

but I'll do a 10 year analysis, just for you beastie. :wub:

Hoozah that means no Canales for you guys!

i wouldn't count on that tbh...unlike gio says, the arcticles i read indicated that he will be for the middle, not the wing!!! take AS for example, they said canales was in madrids sight, while ribéry + either one of mata or david silva would be for the left wing. there is also constant meantioning of his blond hair and him being a lefty...guti anyone???!!! IMO, he's meant to be a midfielder, not a winger

and marca?

nothing on MARCA so far. but this rumor isn't really surprising...i posted weeks ago that uli hoeness changed his strategy and said in german TV he will sell ribéry this summer if he won't renew

I think u missed my post, Meta. :p

But, Meta tell me this...

He lives in Madrid, treated really well by all Madridistas, constantly persuaded to be involved in their events. On the other hand, the majority of the culés and our Board are totally not bothered about him. When was the last time our Board contacted him? Did they invite him to play for our indoor team? I'm sure he'd 've considered the offer. what do you expect him to do? Keep declaring he is a culé while he gets snubbed by those in Barcelona?
He was the greatest playmaker of his time and dare i say it, the most imp member of our Dream Team. How many titles did Cruyff win after the Dane's departure?
He wasn't treated well then and still isn't by us. If he had, he'd still be with us. :(

Can you do an all time one too meta? Am curious to know the gap when you include all trophies (Domestic & international).

I went with 20 ahead of 30 because for me football changed markedly around the start of the 90's via that milan team, the dream team and quinta. so 1990 was a good start point to measure recent history from.

anyway, the last 10 years:

as I suspected, it's more even between barca and real.

but that doesn't change my point, beastie.

real shouldn't be crowing about having more trophies, because it's simply not relevant. in the last 20 years we have outgained you, and in the last 10 years only we are level.

If the more cups argument would be strong why would you spend 250 mil in a season to change fortune

i think they couldn't stand that we were so much better in the last couple years. they wanted fast change. so to steal balague's point instead of buying one star per year they decided to buy several

so...

real would be waaay ahead GJ

dont think so, probably 10-15.

...really?

HANG YOUR HEADS IN SHAME YOU FILTHY CURS.

we are only three

I repeat

THREE TROPHIES

behind real madrid.

and we're also 18 ahead of our nearest rivals.

el clasico truly is the never-ending war between football's ultimate superpowers.

ladies and gentlemen, here is your daily moment of zen:
