No Spanish club but RM has been a realistic contender for the UCL since the 15/16 season. But again, that's the past, it isn't relevant anymore. What's more important to tomorrow is the massive regression in finances and talent level La Liga has experienced in that time.
That's cool, but it's not relevant to tomorrow. You brought up PSG being the only French club who could contend as if that hasn't been the case in for Madrid in Spain for a decade.
Unfortunately for you lot, all the insults you used to toss at other competitions now apply to yours.
Meanwhile, Spain has no talent to speak of whatsoever. Culminating in Elche and Espanyol being at the top of your table, competing for European places, with landscapers for players.
Well, PSG plays in Ligue 1 and won the UCL. Spain hasn't had a winner not named Madrid in a decade.
Sevilla and Villareal used to be good, but not so anymore. As I said, catch up with the times.
I don't have a problem with Africans. You're the one that brought it up to detract from the French talent pool as if Spain isn't leveraging African players as well.
France's top 12 clubs are superior to Spain's today, in 2025, and it isn't particularly close.
Lille has a stronger roster than Atletico for crying out loud
Paris F.C., a newly promoted club, unironically has more money than every La Liga club except Madrid.
Pre Ligue 1+, without a domestic television deal, Ligue 1 matched La Liga's spending this summer, and still finished €300m+ in the green.
They do not, La Liga clubs can't afford them. Lille has a better roster than Atletico at this point.
The UCL is PSG's training session. We face a vaunted La Liga defense next week in fact.
Now he's dog walking the entire competition with little resistance. Literally isn't a CB outside of FCB that can even try to mark him. A man amongst landscapers.
