Hattrick and 40th league goal, insane. Unselfish from Neymar too.
Real will have number eleven. They have always prioritized he cl. As have Milan.14th La Liga since the legend no.14 Johan Cruyff took over the team as a manager. Twice the number of those won by Real. RIP.
I think they are moving towards a more collective TV deal from next season. Although the big two will still get a lot more than the restBetter give those two teams more TV money and leave the others fighting for scraps..
That's not true.Real will have number eleven. They have always prioritized he cl. As have Milan.
Plus they are so far in the lead they can give your lot a few la ligas.
And especially when Barcelona are winning 6 out of 8 league titles and winning as many CL's in the same period as Madrid.That's not true.
Jupp Heyneckes was fired 8 days after winning the European cup at Madrid. Real had finished 4th in the league that season. The Madrid indicated that domestic perfomances were just not good enough
Real care about the league,especially when its Barca winning it.
Not sure, hope it was just a precaution.Injured?
Same as LeicesterMadrid have 1 league in 8 years
pretty pathetic

We won 13 since 92, and we can't even use a multiplier to show our dominance over Liverpool because they've been that shit in that time.14th La Liga since the legend no.14 Johan Cruyff took over the team as a manager. Twice the number of those won by Real. RIP.
He's just bitter.And especially when Barcelona are winning 6 out of 8 league titles and winning as many CL's in the same period as Madrid.
Of course not, they won neither the league nor the CL!He's just bitter.
Consider the fact that Barca have won two trebles in that time while Real have won none in their entire history,that's something that bothers the Madrid fans and hierachy
You can't win a treble without the league (No,Liverpool's 2001 effort isn't a real treble)
Exactly. Infact I'd rank our 2009 treble higher than theirs.Of course not, they won neither the league nor the CL!
What on earth are you talking about? The ball was out wide, they weren't pressurising the midfield, they were on the edge of the box.That's quite normal in Spain... their teams are more "pressure the midfield" oriented hence higher defenses.. Hey, can't say it hasn't worked for them.
There's a difference between being poor and being lazy. It's pretty obvious. The first phase was poor defending, the second phase was lazy defending. I don't see why it's such a big deal to point that out. Granada had nothing to play for and many teams across multiple leagues switch off when they've nothing to play for.By that logic, United have a lack of interest in scoring goals..
I thought Granada played very hard today. They're obviously not as good as Barcelona, but their loss today had nothing to do with lack of effort.What on earth are you talking about? The ball was out wide, they weren't pressurising the midfield, they were on the edge of the box.

United's issue - aside from a lack of quality in attack - is that they're fearful, not lazy.
This. They clearly were going to get cash they never saw in their lives for a win.I thought Granada played very hard today. They're obviously not as good as Barcelona, but their loss today had nothing to do with lack of effort.
Beyond pathetic.Madrid have 1 league in 8 years

I don't agree with that. Barcelona have been the best team over the season and will probably win the double, why is better than winning the Champions league.Barca deserved to win it. However, the CL trophey is the big one. Real or Atleti will have a better season than Barca.
I had an available carnet to go but I had a first Communion so I was busy all the day, a pity.I wonder if @carvajal is at the match.
Apart from Liverpool supporters, most fans would prefer a CL trophey over a domestic double. The CL trophey is more important for the individual awards as well.I don't agree with that.

I'd prefer it too, but in terms of how good a season was for a club...I'd say the club who won the league had a better season than winning the Champions League. One bad game in a Knockout competition and you're out, it's harsh to criticise a team for an off day.Apart from Liverpool supporters, most fans would prefer a CL trophey over a domestic double.

I'd rather United win the PL right now. The league is a better indicator of quality. Also, La Liga is the hardest league to win on the planet so it's an even bigger sign of quality. I don't agree that the a CL is necessarily better league and cup double. I mean, Madrid's road to the final has been City and Wolfsburg ffs. Ateltico's path has obviously been brutal.Apart from Liverpool supporters, most fans would prefer a CL trophey over a domestic double.

Not only in Spain, I agree abou that. But a season with a CL trophey trumps in most cases a season with a domestic double.I'd prefer it too, but in terms of how good a season was for a club...I'd say the club who won the league had a better season than winning the Champions League.

Barcelona were consistently the best side in Spain this season - they had one poor spell but could afford it due to their form over the rest of the season.
R.e. individual awards...couldn't care less.
I think it depends on the club. Real Madrid probably would prefer the league given they have a dry spell right now, Barcelona the Champions League so they were the first to retain it.Not only in Spain, I agree abou that.
