Playing at Madrid is literally one off the biggest cheat codes. It's one off those clubs. If it wasn't him, it would've been someone else. Let's be reality.

But it wasn’t someone else. Playing as a nailed on starter for Madrid for a decade is a flex in of itself, but to then win that many trophies?

Many players have come and played for Real Madrid but few have won 22 trophies, let alone 4, possibly 5 UCLs.

So Roma sacked Mou to get De Rossi only to finish in the same position (6th) and same points total as last year (63).

I swear Roma has had the same season for the past 3-4 years

Neither of them beat any of the teams that finished above Roma. The one thing you could always on count with Mourinho was getting results aka wins vs the big teams. That was lacking this season and the football was dire. You could see how liberated the players were when the Iberian Terrorist was sent away.

same points, wins, draws, losses and position in the table 3 straight years

6th place 2021-22 = 18 wins 9 draws 11 losses 63 points
6th place
2022-23 = 18 wins 9 draws 11 losses 63 points
6th place

I find it interesting when fans of clubs and their execs deem a trophy to mean something or when it's bullshyt.

ETH wins the FA Cup but has a terrible campaign otherwise. I understand why they'd look elsewhere but does the FA Cup mean nothing?
