Carlo Ancelotti has claimed that his Real Madrid side are more desperate than ever to achieve success.
Madrid triumphed in the Copa del Rey, the Champions League and the Club World Cup this year, and Ancelotti believes that those victories are driving the squad on to lift more silverware in the future.
"It has been a fantastic year. With a great amount of effort and hard work, we achieved something very important," the Italian told the club's official website.
"That brings us huge desire ahead of 2015. In 2014, a cycle began that could be important for the future of Real Madrid.
"I was happy after winning La Decima, because we did it with hard work from everyone and it was an extraordinary source of motivation for the Madridista world. We won the most important competition, which everyone had been dreaming of."
Madrid are currently a point clear with a game in hand at the winter break in La Liga.
