This current Barca are shadow of what they used to be. I would say that Bayern were better than this year's Barca. Real Madrid are currently better than that Bayern though.

Yeah, that's arguable for sure. Was there more parity in Bundesliga finances then as well though, compared to Atleti v Real now?
 
I posted this in the FootyGAF thread but -

If Atleti win this, is it too early to say that this season is one of the best, if not THE best, achievement in the modern game? Simply unreal.

An eighth of the budget of Real and Barca. Huge debt. A wage bill lower than QPR's. The whole squad built for €80m.

It's absolutely extraordinary.
I guess it would be like Force India or Lotus winning the Formula 1 championships despite a much, much smaller budget than the top teams.

So, yeah. It's an incredible achievement.
 
A team of 2 of the most expensive players, superstars...

..Yet Modric and Di Maria are the ones who, if anyone, will facilitate any win if it should happen.
 
Yeah Di Maria is the only dangerous player in the white jersey.

Khedira is a joke, but options for Ancelotti have been limited. I would still just go for it and place Illara.
