The 'Galaticos era' was the name given to Florentino Perez's first decade at the head of Real Madrid.
In the year 2000, Perez revolutionised the world of football by incorporating his business strategies to the club's management, signing the best players in the world and benefitting from the enormous winnings they generated through marketing.
'The Galacticos' starting line-up was: Casillas, Roberto Carlos, Helguera, Hierro,Michel Salgado, Beckham, Makelele, Zidane, Figo, Raul and Ronaldo. Figo, Beckham, Zidane and Ronaldo, top players at that time, dazzled the whole world when playing together.
On the other hand, many believe Madrid's current team could be considered even better than that of the 'Galacticos'.
Their starting line-up, managed by Zidane, would be: Keylor Navas, Marcelo, Sergio Ramos, Pepe, Carvajal, Modric, Casemiro, Kross, Cristiano, Bale and Benzema. Some of the world's elite also in this team who have given Real Madrid some major trophies.
