With 2020 approaching, Goal has decided to pick out the best players to have lined up for Los Blancos over the past 10 years
GK: Iker Casillas
A Real Madrid icon, Iker Casillas gave the club incredible consistency between the sticks for nearly two decades.
His final five years at Real at the beginning of the decade may have been interrupted by injury and a spat with Jose Mourinho, but the Spaniard's skill still managed to shine through.
Casillas was crowned La Liga's best goalkeeper in 2012 and is considered one of Los Blancos' greatest ever servants.

A Real Madrid youth product, Dani Carvajal was allowed to leave in 2012 for Bayer Leverkusen.
Less than a year later and he was back at the Bernabeu, with the Blancos exercising their buy-back option after realising he was too good to let go.
Since returning, Carvajal has become a key part of the Madrid side and has been twice named in the Champions League team of the season.

Over the past decade, if Real Madrid have ever needed rescuing, more often than not it's been Sergio Ramos that's stepped up.
The veteran defender is not only ruthless at the back, but surprisingly clinical in attack.
Ramos' ability in front of goal has regularly proven crucial for Los Blancos, with his injury-time equaliser against Atletico Madrid in the 2014 Champions League final one of his most memorable strikes.
In defence, he has become infamous for poor discipline and is the most carded player in La Liga history, but those 'dark arts' have also often been decisive for his side.

Described as the best defender in the world by Jose Mourinho in 2014, Raphael Varane has become a rock at the back for Real Madrid.
Showing maturity well beyond his years since signing for the club in 2011, the Frenchman boasts the speed and strength few centre-backs can match.
When fit, Varane is one of the first names on Real's team sheet and rarely puts in a bad performance.
