Real Madrid haven't been at their best domestically this year, but this performance shows that they still have the quality to roll teams over. However, Ronaldo has really carried the team at times this year, and helped to paper over some of the cracks that would otherwise be more evident.

They really have to strengthen the squad in the summer and bring in some top players. Benzema has been useless for some time now, and Modric, although still world class, is getting on a bit in age.

They should still be strong enough to see off Liverpool in the Champions League final, and if they win it then that would be a huge achievement considering how bad they have been at times this year.

Not sure why Bale is often made the scapegoat by Real Madrid fans, as I think he has been very good since he joined them, but has just been quite unlucky with injuries.
