Irregardless of what will happen next Sunday, for sure we all realize that the Spanish football has stepped into a very different level, to the world class level. It is very similar to the big boom for French football that happened in 1998 to 2006. Spain won Euro-2008 and at least reached the final of the 2010 World Cup.
Why?
Here is one of the many factors:
77% of La Liga players are Spanish while 40% of Premier League are English.
Eearlier today, Cruyff said that Spain is a replica of Barcelona team, and he nominates them to win the trophy. Spain players are the ones who really lead Barcelona and Real Madrid to their big performances, in addition to Messi and Ronaldo.
In contrast, we saw Inter Milano winning the Champion League and everything else in Italy this year, but not a single Italian player can be thanked for that.
Result is clear!
