The answers from Manchester United and England legend Wayne Rooney, Newcastle legend Alan Shearer, and former Arsenal star Theo Walcott sparked anger among Real Madrid fans. The question was: «Where would Real Madrid finish if they played in the Premier League?». Rooney and Shearer placed Real fourth, citing the difference in strength between La Liga and the Premier League. However, Walcott's answer ignited the fury of the fans. In response to the question, «Would they be third in our league?», he said: «Good question, I think they would struggle in away games like Crystal Palace, Leeds and Newcastle. The weather will also affect the results». Walcott also added: «I think they would be eighth».
