Creating Real Madrid's Best XI of Spanish Players Since 2000

Real Madrid had five players in the last Spain squad, more than any other club. That's an indication both of the strength at Zinedine Zidane's disposal and a reminder of how Los Blancos attract the top talent, both from home and abroad.

Madrid have always had a proud history of Spanish players, but in recent years, that hasn't been quite as apparent as previously.

Building on the success of our Real Madrid XI based on one player per nation, what kind of side can we create using only Spaniards? The players must be recognised by FIFA as Spanish, have represented Real since 2000/01 and are judged on what they gave to Madrid on the pitch, not elsewhere in their career.
