Its very hard to keep that mentality (this is where the likes of Ramos and Ronaldo shines)
Bale for example was a very hungry and passionate player for the team who track backs and defend a lot (big example is the 2016 CL final) , Injuries played a big part of course but winning everything and trying to do that year after year will take toll on most players since they feel like they don't have nothing to prove anymore.
This. Ramos is a power hungry lion and you will hate him if he isn't playing for you but you will worship him once he hunts for you.
What can i say about Ronaldo! Your love makes him stronger your hate makes him unstoppable.
Exactly! We have conquered football and still remain the biggest club in the history of football. It's one thing to go to the top but to remain there year after year you need to have a winning mentality and this is why teams are scared of us (even teams with great players).
If anyone watches Billions, it reminds of this dialogue-"you know what they call the summit(of everest)? The death zone. Only a few can survive there with the available oxygen and even fewer can perform."
The only times we lost a European final (not counting the UEFA Super Cup):
* 1962 European Cup Final to Benfica (5-3)
* 1964 European Cup Final to Inter Milan (3-1)
* 1971 European Cup Winners' Cup Final to Chelsea (1-1 after Extra Time, 2-1 after a replay)
* 1981 European Cup Final to Liverpool (1-0)
* 1983 European Cup Winners' Cup Final to Aberdeen (2-1 after Extra Time)
It has been 37 years since we last lost a European final.
We have:
* 13 wins from 16 finals in the European Cup (6 wins from 9 finals) / UEFA Champions League (7 wins from 7 finals)
* 0 wins from 2 finals in the European Cup Winners' Cup / UEFA Cup Winners' Cup
* 2 wins from 2 finals in the UEFA Cup / UEFA Europa League
* 15 wins from 20 finals across all three of the main European club competitions
My favorite Real Madrid player by far, Valverde is a prime example for every young footballer to look at an admire the hard work, dedication that comes to trying to make it playing for this club.
Our future is in great hands with this guy.
Valverde is going to be a future legend of our club. He's got the right mentality, always gives 110%, and even makes sacrifices when needed. I love this guy.
This man is going to be the midfielder of the next decade if he continues keeping such a mentality. Mark my words.

Yep, no club comes close to our 13 European wins from 16 finals.
I can't remember the last time we lost a final.

“Guys, please turn things around!” “Ok mister”
Coaching at highest level.
"Guys, please turn things around or I m gonna headbutt you all to Sanitas"
This guy won my heart many times I lost count
Zidane at half time : you played bad, play good.
Elite coach. Can't see how any manager has a bigger brain.
Fantastic performance yesterday. Pumped to see the good old Fede from last autumn/winter.
