Raul Albiol believes that usually teams who win a lot of silverware start to fall apart because of their egos, but explained that the Spanish national team has the same humility and desire to achieve more.
The Spanish national team is currently, without a doubt, one of the strongest sides in the world of football.
They most definitely have the best players from around the globe and most of their first team players are from the best club sides around the world.
The Spanish national team has players from teams such as http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604, who have recently taken the tag of being the best team in the history of the world; Real Madrid, who have the richest history in the world of football; Manchester City, who are currently
the Premier League champions; http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Arsenal-c38429, who always manage to stay in the top four of the Premier League and also manage to impress in Europe almost every season.
Therefore, with such a rich squad, the Spanish national team are always tournament favourites.
It all started back in 2008 when Spain won the Euros and showed the world what they are capable of. Right after two years, Spain were yet again favourites to win the FIFA World Cup in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/South-Africa-c757 and they yet again lived up to their expectations.
Most recently, Spain won Euro yet again and they were again the favourites to win the competition.
Currently, the Spanish national team is playing the FIFA World Cup 2014’s qualifiers and Raul Albiol has hailed his side as he believes that even though many teams become egoistic after so much success, the Spanish national squad still has players who have
humility and desire to win more.
While speaking about the Spanish national team, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Raul-c30652 Albiol said:
“Not many people get the chance to experience four amazing years with the national side and what surprises me most is our continued success. After our 2008 and 2010 triumphs we carried on as we were but usually in sport, especially in football, it’s very
difficult to maintain success because egos start to get bigger.”
“However, everything is as it was with the same humility, camaraderie and respect, and that’s important.”
“Success can change players and it makes them lose their work ethic, humility, and the way in which they train together and show respect to their teammates, but we still retain these values.”
