    Its not really a decline more so back to the norm tbh. They never had any real star players, had never even won a Copa America, and would rarley make it to a world cup before 2010 when the golden generation started peering through.

      No, it’s worse than the norm. Before we would at least semi-regularly get out of the group stages in Copa Libertadores… every now and then a club would make a run to quarter-finals and on rare ocassions semi-finals.

      Now we can’t get out of the group stages of ANY competition, including Sudamericana which my club won in the 2000’s and Colo-Colo reached a final. It’s absurd. That was never the norm. Football has been left to die.
