ponsaelius Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 Another goal by Iñaki Williams, I don't know how Athletic manages to extract so much talent from a 2 million population.

Catalonia have bigger names but they're largely aging (Valdes and Xavi). Basque have more depth and better strikers. Basque team would probably be stronger if you include the French basque region (the Basque national team only includes the autonomous region within Spain.)

Iniesta's not Catalan btw. He played once for Catalonia but that's only because they sometimes have guest players (Cruyff and a few others have played as well).
