"From where I'm standing, the two biggest football clubs in the world are both to be found in Spain," Sir Bobby Robson said in his autobiography. "Real Madrid and Barcelona. Manchester United comes third."

The late, great Geordie genius would know. He was the last Englishman to take charge of one of the Clasico clubs, winning a Cup Winners' Cup and Copa Del Rey while at Barcelona in the 1990s. But it was far from smooth sailing for Sir Bobby.

There was drama a-plenty in the post-Cruyff years in Catalonia, and so Robson's time as Barca boss lasted less than 12 months – despite his success. And his story is not uncommon: plenty have come and go at the Camp Nou - and at the Bernabeu. English and not English, successful and not so much. 

How closely have you paid to the comings and goings of Spanish football since 2000, though?
