Real Madrid legend Roberto Carlos is impressed by their summer market work.
Real have landed James Rodriguez, Toni Kroos and Keylor Navas in recent weeks.
Roberto Carlos praised president Florentino Perez for his work: "He's signing players of the highest level, this is paramount.
"Now there's no time to adapt and you have to be patient with new players who are coming. Opposing teams will want to win even more against Madrid, for its history and all its doing.
"They needed these players to stay on top."
