5 records that show it will be a mistake to write off Real Madrid

#1 Never finished worse than 11th position in the League

1902 - The year when the legend of Real was born

Never in La Liga's 90-year-old history, has Real managed to finish lower than the 11th position. That is a massive achievement for any club in any league.

To consistently finish in the top half of a league table for almost a century shows the class and character of a club like no other achievement.

Football history is extremely vast and different teams have dominated different periods. From A.C Milan to Ajax to Nottingham Forrest, many clubs have had their glory days and now seem to be only shadows of their former selves. This record, however, shows why Real Madrid was crowned the club of the century.

Madridistas have seen their side of struggle but have also seen them manage to overcome it every single time. The league might be out of the question, but no point difference is enough to break the Madridista spirit that runs in of those players.

You might not see a league comeback, but what you will definitely see is 11 players run onto the field every week and fight with the same passion they always have.

They are not playing for the league anymore, maybe not even for the fans, maybe not even for themselves, but they are playing for that badge on their chest, and no position on that table is going to be low enough for them to give up.

This is Los Blancos, a team that has never had a horrible season. Their worst has been a mid-table finish and that is what makes them the most successful in history, and you cannot write off the most successful club in history.
