No Iniesta!
No Fabio Cannavaro either and no Luis Suarez or Raul or about 19 other world class players.
We’ll forgive you, it was an impossible choice.
The vote was put out there, vote for your combined El Clasico team of the last 20 years and it was a ridiculous selection.
Pick your combined Real Madrid and Barcelona team of the last 20 years – if you can! https://t.co/oBmn0XwD7w #ElClasico

The SportsJOE readers met the task head on though and put together a dream of a dream team.
We went for an unorthodox formation, granted. But what else were we to do? Take out one of those front five or seven? It wasn’t an option.
Here’s the combined team, as voted by you.
And here’s how the results went down.
Goalkeeper
Tight enough.
Right back
Alves speeds ahead.
Centre back
Carles Puyol’s big heart takes it.
Left back
No love for Marcelo.
Central midfielders
What a pairing.
Attacking midfielders
Jesus…
Strikers
Decent enough.
