How did they manage to outspend so many "large European clubs ?" If they dont win La Liga this year will the season be considered a complete failure because they invested so much

Anywhere but first a "complete failure"???
They haven't spent that heavily...
Don't forget, they sold Torres for a huge fee, and also got good money for Petrov. Real Madrid have heavily outspent Atletico.
Bearing in mind they finished 6th last season, 4th this year would be a fantastic result for them.

Didn't they pay 20 million for Simao? That was crazy.
I hear they're signing Riquelme now-awesome!
