I love how the Barcelona players listen to "Thrift Shop" when they're on the bus. LOL. +1

Atletici Madrid game is never near the clasico game, the rivalry,the fans, the competition, the palyers, the audience...
Both teams will go bored if the other side doesnt exist, i dont like RM but i love to hate them ;)
Respect for both institutions...

Thrift shop lol

Come on barca players, that fifty dollars for a t-shirt.

Can someone explain why they are at a hotel if it is a home game?

El Clasico is the best game in football. But Barca and Real must respect each other. I dont like these fights and other bullcrap. So all my respect goes to Barca and their players ;)

@Iraqi No El Clasico is one of the worst and most boring games in football. And no Barca and Real Madrid shouldn't respect each other. The fights is what makes football exciting and atleast proves that they care a LITTLE about the club.

What game do you think could be beter then El clasico ? Really curious to know...

Several, ill start off with the Rome derby which is a contender for top spot. Old Firm, Tyne-Wear Derby, West Ham-Millwall, Krakow Derby, Leeds - Manchester United, Dortmund - Schalke to just name a few.

In term of Football quality....

@Tiki

Don't mind him. He's just jealous of our monstrous success. ;)

@Tiki Football quality doesnt matter, its about the players giving everything and the fans Truly resenting eachother. @Dynastian Oh really, first off i Don't care about footballing honours as i support the Club not the players. Plastics like you would never understand what it is to really support Your team. I used to live in London and on Of my closest friends Was a QPR fan, who supported his club no matter what, went to every game and sung his Heart out. When Qpr Got taken over and bought their way to the BPL, sure he Was happy with the team doing well but thats not Why he supports the team and neighter Why i support Arsenal.

@Dephased i think the best actual derby is Manchester one in term of quality, Madrid and London derbies are very good in term of quality...
I prefer Boca Junior and Riverplate for the ambiance. In term of quality, the audience, the stars playing, the importance for both sides, Clasico is way more intersting. But i understand your point...
@Messi : The hotel is for concentration, they are not sleeping there, they are just discussing and having some rest. Not sure.
@Dynast : We both know the real value of this game :) I can understand if he is judging games in an other way. but yes, i think Clasico is definitely better than Manchester derby, the second best game imo.
