@laligaandbeyond Great thread. Clubs from my childhood that I miss seeing in laliga are Zaragoza, Deportivo La Coruña, Hercules & Tenerife.

While Segunda is full of former LaLiga sides over the years we've had a number of clubs who have fallen even further.
Here's a thread of 10 former LaLiga clubs outside the top two divisions and how far some of these giants have fallen

@Alvaro_Romeo Hasta antes, se veía que no le seguía los movimientos a Lamine, yo le dije a mis amigos 'ese no termina el partido'. Nunca antes lo había visto jugar de lateral. Ya había jugado ahí otras veces ?

Hay que terminar con el tabú de no hacer cambios en la primera parte, ya sea para no enfadar al jugador o reconocer un mal planteamiento. En la era de los 5 cambios esa máxima tiene que pasar a mejor vida. Hoy Nico González, tras la primera amarilla, tenía que haber salido.

@CaptnGuardiola Yeah but he played awesome today. He was actual real danger on the wing. He just needs to combine more with the mids and he’s gonna fly I can feel it

Rashford's behavior after losing the ball is shameful. Walking, jogging, watching. Zero intensity or desire to sprint & counter-press. The contrast with Raphinha's behavior in these situations is striking. #AtletiBarça

Good 2nd half performance, made easier by playing vs 10, we moved the ball faster & were consistently able to find the free man. A key win considering the opponent's level, how crucial this game was to solidify #1 spot in laliga & the demanding calendar. Visca Barça! 🔴 🔵

2 great off-ball runs that caused Nico González 2 bookings 👏🏾

Lamine Yamal needs to make more aggressive off ball runs to take his game to the next level. Not only to get goal scoring chances, but also when you can drag a defender to clear a congested area.

Salah's level dropping, Isak injured, Wirtz struggling to find his role/position, it seems everything that could have gone wrong went wrong for Liverpool (apart from ekitike who I really like)
Captn 🇵🇸@CaptnGuardiola
The project I'm most interested in following this ssn is Liverpool's. How will they associate Ekitike, Wirtz, Salah & (maybe) Isak? Frimpong & Kerkez are 2 very attacking FBs, how will Slot keep balance? Will Van Dijk & Konaté have to deal w/ above average nbr of transitions?

@bertrandmyd Vaya imbecil que eres, no sientes vergüenza? 40 tacos y lleno de canas y metiendote con un chico de 18 años que ni te ha molestado ni hablado. Pero claro, necesitas a Lamine para crear polémicas online para poder comer, sino un imbecil como tú nadie le da trabajo. Que asco das.

@Jonte29 @jdeposicion No way. Barça keeps its best academy products. While Chelsea & City benefit from EPL tax (a substitute GK like Trafford goes for 30+M). Sporting, Ajax etc : it's the basis of their business model.
English
@jdeposicion I do get that their intention is different, but do you think Barca could do this better? Or is it something to expect because the intention is different?

One thing is to produce talents. Another is knowing how to sell them.

@sozirv At the time, there were dozens of Bulgarian players in European leagues and their NT was quite good (1994 WC semi-final), it wasn't that 'unique'. @jdeposicion

~30-36°C in several US cities, w/ extreme humidity. Many games in early afternoon. Cooling breaks & extended half time pauses expected. All stadiums in Qatar 22 had pitch level AC (20-22°C felt by the players). In this WC, only 6 out 16 have climate control.

Man… after the brutal fixture list the players have to endure towards the end of this season, they’re headed straight to the longest World Cup of all time in the sweltering American heat. We might witness a record number of injuries next season.
