And if not CR then they are the most successful Club in ALL of Europe. Like it or not they are just as big as Utd. And thanks to Glazers stagnation I would say bigger than Utd.

With no disrespect to Man Utd. Madrid has better history, League and European cups than Man utd, better stadium and training facilities than united, better finances and earnings than united, more followers than united on social media. So I don't know how Simon says United are still a big club than Madrid. The only thing I can think of United do better is that buy they world-class players and ruin their careers like Di Maria, Pogba, Alexis Sanchez. Madrid turns its players into legends that's why they have the most ballon d'ors.

Barcelona faced a great United side in their first final win as well. Far tougher than any final Madrid have played and Barcelona made it look easy.

La liga is a much better league then the PL in my opinion. Overall the football teams there are on another level. Over the past decade Real Madrid have won the CL 5 times, Barca 2 times and Atletico have been finalists twice. Also, In the past 10 years Spanish teams have won the Europa league 7 times!!

Ronaldo left united at his peak and so did Beckham... Zidane left the best club in Italy for them and Canavaro was awarded a place aftef winning the world cup. It's the ultimate goal for most aspiring footballers.

First time i disagree with Simon 🤩 Real Madrid is the biggest and most iconic club in the world by any standards. Trophies, Prestige, History, Desire, Global reach, Recognisability, u name it. There is no other club at this level in the world. They can even compete financially with EPL clubs having much less money from TV rights because they are so unique.

Simon’s talking rubbish, the whole package is way to expensive for Liverpool. Look how they struggled with Mo Salah’s pay deal. If Bellingham gets paid 12 million what about the other players. It would cause problems within the camp. Furthermore, as a Liverpool supporter, I would prefer 2/3 top players rather than one. We’ve got 3 midfielders out of contract and Thiago’s only got one season left. We need more bodies and Bellingham alone is not enough.

I live in London and I absolutely love the PL and English football but when it comes for superstars to choose where to play especially Latin players it’s all about Real Madrid and Barcelona . Nothing comes even close to those 2

Absolutely LaLiga is BETTER than Prem..Prem is just an entertaining league becuz of its intensity..It's a league with more tv rights, sponsorships and oil money..That's what makes Prem the best league but in terms of FOOTBALL and Competition, they are nowhere near LaLiga... Even Struggling LaLiga in the 2020s is still better than Prem in Technicalities..Madrid and Barca will always be bigger than all of Prem clubs combined 🤣

It's those damn white kits 😂 Also 'competitive league' doesn't equate to having the best teams. You could theoretically have a super competitive league where all the games are draws and every team finished on 38 points. Madrid are simply the biggest and best club in the history of world football, but I still choose to support another club.

Liverpool fan here. Why would Liverpool spend around £150 million when we can get two or three other midfielders for the same price. Bellingham, no matter how talented he is, will not fix the problems we have himself.

Liverpool is paying that high salary because Salah proved over 5 season that he is consistent. Who can guarantee that Jude won’t be injury prone or have dip in form?

If Ac Milan become even a shadow of what they were in the 80s, 90s, 2000s and had the money of Madrid or PL teams then there would be another team which is the closest in football in terms of Iconic and legendary to Real Madrid AND could properly challenge Madrid and PL teams for superstars.

We all know football works in mysterious ways. That game has no bearing on the quality of the two leagues, European football is different. If you played that quarter final tie again, I'm pretty sure Utd wouldn't be scoring two own goals. Utd was awful in the 2nd leg, and Sevilla pounced on it. Just a bad day in the office for utd, with a massively injury hit squad. Utd Beat Barcelona and Real Betis, and struggling, relegation fighting West Ham are in the Semi finals of a European Cup...so not a great point or argument.

English Pundits confuse the league with the individual clubs. The English Premier League is massive (I will not argue which league is more competitive). The EPL is truly global - Numbers back that up but in terms of the biggest club then Real Madrid remain the Golden Standard. They are the pinnacle of the sport. You see it by how easily they can turn players who are already at big clubs

As much as Simon wants to twist it, Madrid is the biggest and best club in the world, and when given the option EVERYONE (unless you a scouser) wants to play for Madrid or Barcelona over any other team. The English love to use the climate argument, but we all know even if Madrid or Barca had Manchester weather, it will not change anything. The climate have mattered more to Brazilians and the culture is more similar than other European big 4. It is clear that the most important thing here is Bellingham WANTED to go Madrid over other clubs. I mean who wouldn't. You would always choose Chanel over Fashionnova.

So 10 years ago, when the best wanted to play for united its because united and prem are so great and when the best wanna go to madrid its the weather🤣🤣🤣🤣 The english are so ignorant

When United were at the peak of one of their many successful cycles under Sir Alex, they were able to pull Juan Sebastian Veron - top, top, top player, no doubt. Real Madrid got Zidane...

Best decision for his career we need more English players in other leagues..why would he not want to work with modric who is arguably the current best midfielder in the world right now

Ronaldo a year after he won the Balon D’Or, Manchester Utd at the top of their game in 2009 where did he wanna go? Real Madrid

Simon the PL is a one team league 🙄

We pay that amount ,which would create a precedent for all further transfers. Plus we would have to renegotiate every A1 players current contract. One addition to our midfield,no matter how good. Would not be enough to sustain or maintain the required depth needed to compete.

They don’t have the money

Am I the only one thinking the price tag is bonkers on Bellingham? Yeah he’s a good player I’ll admit but he also goes missing in big games.. did nothing vs Chelsea this season…. Did ok in the World Cup at group stage but went missing against France when it mattered. He’s ok yeah but I do wonder if hel fade off in a big team.

Cmon now Bellingham is unreal but why spend so much on one player when they can invest in a few players

A club with no league title in over a decade and a distant second to Liverpool in terms of European pedigree in England. Why exactly are Man United more of an iconic club than Real Madrid, Barca, Liverpool, Munich and Milan? The answer Simon is they are not, just in your own head.

Simon’s inferiority complex with Real Madrid is crazy

Kenyan here from Mombasa😅... i can agree with Simon Arsenal, Chelsea and Liverpool who barely have fans here combined still can't match Man United's supporters here,, On this Topic It's simple, Real Madrid and Barcelona offered Status, Your name in the History books and Guaranteed Success, Balon do'r for the Very Best Players. But let's just appreciate how Dortmund Matures this Players Sancho was at the very top he was not even 22, Haaland, Bellingham remember Dembele when he went to Barcelona for a ridiculous fee he was not even 21. Dortmund is such a good club for Young Raw Talents it's a pity they can't keep them and Grow their Stature.

Firstly, i love how the host blasted simon and enlightened him on facts. Also, disagreed with him because, he knows he's being bias, "typically"! Secondly, simon needs to stop trying to be on both sides of the fence. Is either you want to get blast, or agreed on. Pick one sir!. RM is the greatest and the best club in the world. While MU was great and maybe still despite, their challenges, RM was always on up with them. Infact, for the last 15 years RM has way gone past MU. So, no english sides is bigger than RM right now. Thirdly, laliga is not a 2 man's race. Middle teams and bottom teams beat RM and barca. Not to forget that, if la liga is a 2 man's race why atletico has won 3 titles in a peak RM and barca and why did sevilla dominated europa league. Get yall english bias analysis facts please! Bye!✌️🙄🚶‍♂️🚶‍♂️🤦‍♂️

Accept it or not Real is the most iconic, biggest and successful club in the world.

Simon is delusional thinking that premier league have the best and the biggest clubs in the world. United cannot compare to Real Madrid, as they do everything better, Champions league, Money, Prestige of playing in the clubs along side legends of the game, with one of the most known and feisty rivalries in history. Real Madrid is no doubt the best and biggest club in the football history and then there will be competition for second place with the likes of Bayern, United and Barcelona.

I am a Barca supporter myself and I still have to clearly say that Real Madrid are the greatest club in the world. Man U was...but Simon as an admirer of George Best still hasn´t updated that Man U have been struggling for more than a decade.

Simon’s bias is actually disgusting. Real Madrid are the most iconic club itw there’s really no debating that atp. 15-20 years ago yeah there could’ve been an argument for United and other clubs like Milan but this is ridiculous.

Jude Bellingham, at his astronomical price, is a 'final piece of the jigsaw' player. Liverpool and Manchester United are not in a position to spaff all their budget on one player when they both require a rebuild. Liverpool buying Bellingham would be absolutely ridiculous.

Liverpool need a full midfield rebuild so one signing isn't going to do that. Better putting £130m towards several players. As a Liverpool fan, it's gutting but it's necessary

I'm not sure they are going to do that, but they definitely won't give us the money we need to buy either the right number of players or players of the desired quality

The EPL has been a farmer's league in the last 6yrs

This is the thing people look at talent and not character where as the top players have both. I'd argue thats why bellingham is worth so much, Rice the same but playing a different position.

Serie A has had 4 different champions in the last 4 years. La Liga regularly has different teams go deep in or win European competitions. The Bundesliga has a closer title race right now than the prem.

Simon pointing out that Tebas is complaining about Premier league destroying football and then saying Real are spending huge amounts of money. Real Madrid have since 2012 had the same net spend as Sheffield United. We sell players to buy them, since 2019 we haven’t spend big, selling players such as Theo Hernandez, Hakimi, Odegaard, Reguillon and Casemiro. We are the academy who earns the third most money from selling players of our academy in the world. Where as Manchester City for example have spend half a billion on their défense, without selling anyone. By the way comparing United to Madrid is a joke. United aren’t even the biggest club in England, Liverpool are.

It's a good question tbh. LFC were sold dull transfers windows on the basis they would get JB. So why didn't they invest?

He wanted Liverpool but FSG fumbled it. We should have enough money to get Bellingham and 2 other good players, but FSG won’t reinvest

It take a lot more then one player to improve that Midfield

Simon got it right and it's right on the video icon. Madrid are choosing to afford him and the English clubs are choosing to not afford him. Liverpool have chosen to not sign one player for 120 million but 3 or 4, and they are essentially choosing TAA over Bellingham and as a midfielder who is better, one you already have or one that costs 120 million. Chelsea just spent over a half billion, they don't need more players they have a whole squad they need to get rid of. United are for sale, would you spend 120 million on a player who's going to play for someone else. That pretty much leaves Arsenal, Newcastle, and City, and City could easily afford him but does Pep want to pay that much for one midfielder. I think it's not so much Madrid is better, Bellingham hasn't said he's going to Madrid so don't bid for me. I think the English clubs don't see value in a 19 year old midfielder that costs 120 million. He's not the only midfielder available.

ah yes, no other leagues have teams at the bottom beating teams at the top...classic ignorant argument

We as Liverpool fans always knew it is still down to FSG to spend money to make money. Weather they are willing to reinvest against the elite clubs in the world is another question. Liverpool is more of a loved club and creates unique talents within such as Gerrard, Suarez, Coutinho, Michael Owen, Salah and so on.. The deal is not yet done but we can certainly hope someone inside knows we can still hope to pull him in as he will be just known as another number at Madrid.

Anyone seen Bellingham lately. Kids found his inner Gerrard, now his found his inner Zidane. Powering past people with technical superiority with both feet, with tricks n flick 😮

Because you didn't do what you needed to do in the 2 previous transfer windows. You let Wijnaldum go and don't replace him, you let Shaqiri go and you don't replace him, you let Minamino go and you don't replace him. You keep Keita that you already know will never work, you buy Alcantara who is injury prone... Your midfield rests on Henderson, Milner and Fabinho and the kids (Elliott, Jones, Bajcetic...). You have a great season where you over perform. In the summer you think your players are able to do the same thing again but you realise too late that you need more and younger players in your midfield. You try to get Tchouameni, you fail. You plan for Bellingham in the next window but the season is starting and you need someone: so you get... Arthur! The season starts and you can already see that you are in great trouble, that you will need more than one star player to revamp the midfield, but you can't afford this player plus 3/4 new players (5/6 if you look in defence). That's why.

They don't spend net new dollars. Look at the sales that proceeded big name transfers. They are using those funds, how many you gotta sell to spend $120M

Sir you are 100% correct.

Liverpool are trying to replace this signing by moulding Trent into a midfielder - which isn’t a bad idea. They need to buy a good RB and save about 100million

Liverpool can't afford to buy him because of the number of crucial positions they have to reinforce. Had it not been for that I'm sure they would have made an effort to sign him.
