The one who really plays the Champions League battle to the extreme is not Real Madrid, but the Premier League - look at this set of historical data: 11;5;6;17

As a Real Madrid fan, I have always been upset that Real Madrid has never won the triple crown. I think the triple crown does represent the highest dominance of a club in a single season, and Real Madrid cannot win the triple crown, which means that they have not achieved the energy that truly shrouded European football in any season. In the 1950s, Real Madrid in the Stefano era actually seemed great in large part because of the nostalgic filter. In fact, Real Madrid at that time was far less powerful than the five consecutive Champions League championships in La Liga.
After the reform of the Champions League, Real Madrid still continued the tradition of being popular even if they cannot fight on the third line. Although they have won nine Champions League titles in the past 30 years, in these nine seasons, they have either lost the La Liga title or the King's Cup. In short, the Triple Crown champion has always missed them. Therefore, many people have discovered the reason Real Madrid's Champions League results are so good, that is, sometimes they would rather give up the domestic front than fight to the Champions League. In fact, this is part of the so-called Champions League gene.
Of course, Real Madrid has a strong foundation after all, and will not fight the Europa League like Manchester United, which will lead to the league approaching the relegation zone. The key is that it did not end up with the Europa League championship in the end. Real Madrid still has a bottom line, at least it will not fall out of the La Liga Champions League.
However, if you are fighting for the Europa League and giving up the league, Tottenham will be the first. Compared with Real Madrid, Tottenham Hotspur is much thinner in terms of its foundation and lineup. Look at their Premier League rankings, No. 17, and it feels like playing in the Championship.
However, Tottenham Hotspur will not play in the English Championship next season, but in the Champions League.
Real Madrid plays the most thoroughly in the Champions League? Wrong, it's actually the Premier League team.
Let's look at a set of sensitive data in the history of the Champions League - 11; 5; 6; 17.
You must have recognized the meaning behind 17 at first sight. Yes, what we are talking about Tottenham’s Premier League rankings. Of course, this may not be Tottenham's final ranking. After all, there is still a last round in the Premier League, and Tottenham may surpass Manchester United and rise to 16th place. But you must know what the topic today wants to express, so, tangling 17 and 16 is just a matter of fifty steps to laugh.
This set of data reflects the Premier League rankings in the history of the Champions League, which were ranked by four Premier League teams that qualified for the Champions League at that time.
Among them, 5 and 6 are examples of the reform of the Champions League. 5 Who is it? Of course he is the maker of the famous Istanbul miracle, Liverpool from the 2004 to 2005 seasons. At that time, Liverpool's absolute strength was not even in the top ten in European football, and they ended up only fifth in the Premier League. But they have the status of defending Champions League champions, so they were able to participate in the Champions League seasons from 2005 to 2006, but they had to start with the qualifying round. In fact, they have to thank UEFA and the FA for getting this privilege.
6, is Chelsea from the 11th to 12th season. At that time, Chelsea's wounded soldiers were full of camp and the lineup was aging, so they fought to the Champions League and gave up on the Premier League. In the end, he only won the sixth place. But like Liverpool back then, they also entered the UEFA Champions League season 12 to 13 with their defending champions.
Okay, who is 11?
They are the British League One legend before the Champions League reform, Aston Villa.
From 81 to 82, Aston Villa won the Champions League title, but they only ranked 11th in the league. Obviously, they did not have the energy to deal with multi-line battles, so they could only fight to the Champions League and give up the League One.
Note, here we need to explain that the title is about the Premier League, but it was still the English League One in the 1980s, but what we express here is actually the meaning of the top league in England, so there is no need to be serious about this aspect.
Real Madrid only ranked fifth in La Liga in the 99-00 season, which is also the lowest ranking of the season when they qualify for the Champions League. But if you compare it with the Premier League, Real Madrid's lowest is the highest among Premier League teams on this list. Therefore, when it comes to fighting the Champions League to the death, Real Madrid is really not as good as Premier League teams. Even though Real Madrid has a low ranking in La Liga, it still has a bottom line and will not give up completely. However, Premier League teams are far more determined than Real Madrid. For example, Tottenham is ranked 17th this time? I can't stop myself from entering the Champions League.
Of course, this is also related to the fierce competition in the Premier League. No matter how bad the league is, how bad can it be? But the Premier League is different. Not to mention Manchester United and Tottenham, teams like Chelsea and Manchester City may fall to around 10 if they are not careful.
However, under this circumstance, Premier League teams are still brave enough to fight the Champions League. Let's imagine how much pressure Tottenham has been under this season? Once they can't win the Europa League championship, they will have a complete failure season.
Sorry, Manchester United seems to be in a shooting.
