The EU flags are important in spanish football. As I've explained only three non-eu citizens can be on a pitch at anytime. Teams get around this by claiming passports from EU countries if they -the players- have ancestry from an Eu country or by nationalising a player after five years which is why some Brazilians have spanish flags e.g Roberto Carlos.

Is it possible to add Real Madrid Worldwide fan site : http://www.realmadrid-club.net to the article page external links ?

it says in an interview here: [1] on the real madrid official site that Jerzy Dudek is shirt number 25 so i changed it on the current squad list and his personal page. so by process of elimination, Jordi Codina is number 13. Smithcool

"A study at Harvard University concluded that Real Madrid "is one of the 20 most important brand names and the only one in which its executives, the players, are well-known. We have some spectacular figures in regard to worldwide support of the club. There are an estimated 287 million people worldwide who follow Real Madrid."

This part of the text has as reference an article that refers to the study but, besides some other references to the study, I could not find any traces of that study.

In the "Galacticos" section, the second paragraph repeats in essence the last two sentences of the first paragraph. CuervoWins (talk) 02:02, 27 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed, it was redundant. I've removed that information from the first paragraph. Thanks! --ElHef (Meep?) 02:11, 27 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Can you please add the fact that it is currently ranked as the top club by the UEFA coefficients and also by the IFFHS? The source is: http://www.uefa.com/memberassociations/uefarankings/club/

The articles on FC Barcelona boasts about the trophies and is filled with arrogance while this articles misses out on many of the achievements in the main (introduction) bit. Can you editors of this page not add the vital statistics (trophies, wins, general superiority) like the Barcelona article features? Why can this article not boast in the introduction section that Madrid was bestowed the title of the best club of the 20th century, while FC Barcelona has a line saying that they were once ranked as the top club in IFFHS in 2009? This is absurd. Madrid were ranked top several times too? This is clear bias. Or maybe the page editors are FC Barcelona fans? I thought Wikipedia was objective but it seems now.

Please give a concrete addition not vague suggestions. Walter Görlitz (talk) 19:53, 2 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The editors of this page are a disgrace to Real Madrid Football Club. These editors are nerds who know nothing about football. Look at the Barcelona page. And compare it to this? There are so many important things missing in the introduction, such as how its was bestowed the honour of the best club of the 20th Century and is currently the top club in UEFA rankings?

Makes me think this is a page edited by Barcelona fans.

I have reported this page to the Real Madrid press office for official editing, seeing as how the editors on this page are incompetent useless loser nerds. 91.125.210.42 (talk) 05:18, 4 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I hope they try to edit it. We'll be able to slap a WP:COI template on their talk page.

Please provide the problems you've found and corrections with references. Walter Görlitz (talk) 05:32, 4 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Real Madrid is not commonly known as Real in Spanish-speaking countries. I agree that think this article needs improvement. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Migueldvb (talk • contribs) 23:13, 25 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Someone should tell that to the editors of es:Real Madrid Club de Fútbol where it currently reads, "El Real Madrid Club de Fútbol, mejor conocido como Real Madrid, es una entidad polideportiva con sede en Madrid, España." However, what it's called in Spanish-speaking countries, or even Castilian-speaking countries, is immaterial to the English Wikipedia project. Their common name here is Real Madrid.
