I based it on my childhood memories. Anderlecht practically dominated the decade. All the articles were Anderlecht themed, whoever came to Italy came from Anderlecht. Brugge, seen from the outside, wasn't that acclaimed at the time. Paradoxically, despite having done much less, Antwerp was better known here in Italy. They were the two most successful. Brugge in those years were still seen as a team in crisis far from the glories of the 70s and 80s. They had the same appeal as Mechelen (which lived on distant echoes a couple of seasons earlier). Even though I'm aware that in the second half of the 90s they were very competitive, I don't feel like extending to that team AT THE MOMENT. There's a possibility but not in the medium short term. I've already opened up to Sporting CP who in Italy nobody gave a damn about XD. They were practically equated with the stupid brother of the Portuguese teams. They were basically only known for three things. Figo and the mess with Juventus and Parma for his contract and two European cups against Inter and Roma I think... maybe Napoli... I would have excluded Sporting CP without hesitation.Sad that Giggi only include Anderlecht from Belgium, Club Brugge at least would have been a great addition maybe mamounet has already the kits as well
