They are just in incredible position right now. Not only they have an amazing starting XI, but now they are buying the best talents out there.
Might be risky a bit though, as both Ceballos and Hernandez are kids, so I don't know how much space will they find next to Marcelo, or in that midfield made of Modric, Kroos and Casemiro.
What's also scary is the fact that they might end up selling James, who wasn't that impressive at Madrid, and make one big bomb signing which will make them skyrocket ahead of other teams. Consdiering Benzema is to be replaced sooner or later, I'd say I'm gonna shit my pants if I see Mbappe upfront, with Ronaldo and Bale next to him. Holy shit. They might sell Morata too and add an extra 60-70mln into their wallet.
They did win so many CLs, especially recently, but they had flaws in their game. Not so long ago I was confident we could beat them. And we did. But seeing what shape are they taking, unlike Barca who plays shit football, I think Real is gonna make the ground tremble for many years to come.
