Real Madrid still doesn't seem strong enough. They certainly played well in the pre-season match, but that performance won't be enough to win any title. The new players and the new coach haven't yet adapted to the team and haven't started their natural performance. Although consistency will be a bit difficult for them at the beginning, when they can adapt to the team, they will definitely do well. There is no guarantee of winning any kind of title yet, consistency is needed to win the title, which is not guaranteed with any team. Real Madrid still has more to work on and Xabi Alonso has to adapt to his team and the players.
