The hardest job in football: managing Madrid
Last season people said Mbappé is the problem. The Real Madrid hasn’t won any trophies and PSG won the treble without Mbappé and now I’m seeing the loop and repeat the last season. Maybe those people are right. Maybe Mbappé is the problem. How can Real Madrid press without a right winger 442 formation? How can Real Madrid play with two left wingers Vini Jr and Mbappé? How come Alonso is playing Jude and Arda together they can’t play together. That is the problem. Why is Gonzalo Garcia not starting for Real Madrid? Why not Vini Jr as LW Gonzalo Garcia as 9 and Mbappé has RW.
Its absolutely amusing to me how you guys keep sucking upto real vardrid!!
Nobody has the spine to question real vardrid, that idiot in the pullover said a goal disallowed as if it was wrong!! Are you stupid? CBS if you bring in idiots like this for laliga, you are going to be like ESPN. That idiot is crying about mbappe scoring goal's where out of the 14 matches they got 7 penalties. That too all controversial penalties. Yet people like these praise it as something. When did robbing other teams become excellent footballing?
This guy is just crying the names of madrid players and asking questions that any 3 year old can answer. Answer the questions instead of rephrasing the questions. Atleast watch the game or reactions of vardrid fans watching the games before coming into discuss stuff. Vardrid fans know that they robbed elche, they also know that vardrid dans robbed girona. Mbappe was crying to referees, second, third forth officials and even linesman begging for a penalty. Even the ref was discussing with pembappe for a penalty and then these idiots say utter blunder like these!
Absolute disgrace.
No its good for competition its no longer decided by elclasico 😂❤
Why no Turkish subtitles 🇹🇷! Madrid, which was flying after Bellingham came back from injury, is now on the floor.He sat on the bench for the first half of the CL game and the game was over at half time.He came on in the second half and Madrid stalled again.What did you expect to happen against Girona? It's Jude! Anyone can play with Modric and Kroos, he just needs to understand a little football. That's all Jude can do. Everyone in the team plays selfishly, no one passes the ball! Arda Güler is the only player who plays a team game! He is a pure creator, a real number 10🔥💎
Mbappe needs to score in them important games and big teams too
And everyones needs to step up
Mbappe drains his teammates. Everywhere he goes de players can't perform because he is not a leader to be in that position.
You guys don't understand that Mbappe has screwed up the attacking thrust of this team, since everything is now funneled through him. The attack as a whole is dead. It's utterly one-dimensional. Mbappe will win Pichichi and they won't win squat–because Mbappe scoring all the goals is a false flag, it's a poisoned chalice. PSG all over again.
Now say the same thing without shouting 😂
nahh we cant keep blaming the players when alonso change the plans every game , changes the system every match , there is no chemistry that way. the team have no time to gain anything that way . how long is it gonna take for yall to see that . with carlo he let the players do what they do and they looked way better than this. how long are yall gonna play this (ego) nonsense with players thats been trying to do this xabi system for months now 😂 . the man put fran garcia as a defender for no reason , last week he was a WINGER 😂😂 xabi is a fool
At the end of the season, keep the same energy🥱💯
Real Madrid's performance has gone bad since Bellingham came back to the team. Athletico Madrid was a warning that Bellingham in this team does not work. Vini, Mbappe and Bellingham want to do everything (dribble, score, create). I was telling everyone right at the get go but the goal against Juve and Barcelona glossed that.
Xabi must go
Atletico madrid are also playing amazing haramball talk about them
This lazy team will win nothing this season. It's embarrassing to watch this team play.
Both madrid and barcelona are garbage this season could not tell you who would win la liga
Xabi is alright. Mbappe is a great player but I do believe his signing imbalanced real madrid. He plays well attacking from LW. Jude on the other hand is invested in attemps on goal and cannot hold play as a midfielder
lool
Come one guys bracelona had more injuries for key pkayes for past 2 months and still manage to get top of laliga stop making excuses if you're not taking advantage now barac will come back and then no one can't stop rhem remember what happened last season
"Or are they tired?" Common man, tired on what? CWC? They didnt win it incase youre wondering 😅
It is about time to consider Real Madrid to be dead and buried.
This is now a weak team that forgot to how to win matches and become champions.
Poor Madridistas…..you are now very sad and suffering because your team now is down in the dumps.
Very good chance that Xabi Alonso will be gone before the 2026 year starts.
Goodbye Real…..hope you recover soon.
Alonso is clearly not the man for realmadrid. No tactical awareness or in game management. Why bring ur subs in so late in a game? To do what exactly? Gonzalo garcia showed the world what he could do at the club world cup. A true manager would have taken that to another level by now somehow. He has regressed into a 90th min sub . Rodrygo nothing.
brahim nothing. Endrick nothing. Gonzalo nothing. Absolutely nothing. He isn't the key to realmadrid success
The problem is only about KM
Give me freedom, give me fire,
Give me more penalties, or I’ll cry harder
Gonzalo was balling in the club world cup.. Remember that Trent cross and Garcia header against Juventus? Xabi had Patrick in Leverkusen and his system needs a finisher.. Mbappe and Vini are world class and thats why Xabi is struggling to play Gonzalo and Mbappe keeps scoring so YOU CANNOT DROP HIM. I was shocked to see him take off Trent and sub in Gonzalo cuz who is gonna help him? Why wasn’t he there when Trent was crossing and there wasn’t any head. I feel bad for Vini but Xabi needs to experiment with Mbappe on lw and Garcia ST for just one game.. Might change their state entirely and if not then Vini gets back no worries, it also gives Vini a chance to compete especially with Mbappe
Guys they need a no.9 striker. When defense drop deep it’s hard to break it down with players like Mbappe and vini who need space. 2. Years ago they had joselu/bellingham sitting there getting service but now there no joselu and Bellingham doesn’t go into the no9 spot. Until they put someone there this isn’t getting fixed
As much as Xabi deserves the blame theres only so much he can control. Real Madrid has more talent on there roster then 95% of the world's football clubs (on paper). There is a larger issue at play here. The same problems were happening under Carlo last year. Lack of Leadership, accountability, and a team identity is whats missing. There needs to be an intervention within the team, which includes high level leadership and players. With all the complaining, criticism of refs, omitting themselves from ceremonies, and off the field issues, Real Madrid have forgotten who they are and what they stand for. BIG changes need to be made soon…
It feels like these guys don't watch h any games…
When Real Madrid lets Mbappé go, then they can win a title. Otherwise, nothing
Nobody want to Talk the Truth about this Team but lets be honest:
1. this Team is lazy
2. Jude sobotages the Flow in mitfield because he is trying so Hard to Score and leaves the Other mitfielders Alone. Him and Arda doesnt work Toghter Arda should Play as the 10 and Jude as the 8.
3. Valverde is just Avarage and and does nothing Special in the mitfiled
4. Mbappe needs to do things simpler Not Heroball
5. Vini is just washed to be honsest so inconstent and the defens Right also terrible
They are lazy , Losing to Girona with any names in the Real Madrid squad is unacceptable.
No creative passes and they are too fragile and they depend on red cards and penalty kicks.
Jude Bellingham should be subbed and keep Arda guller.
When are they going to use Endrik or gonzalo ? Vini left wing and Kylian right wing . But he chose to bring Rordrigo whose performance is shitty.
Kkk Mbappe has no capacity to carry the team. Him and Halaand are not different. When their teams needs them, they cant deliver. Xavi & his Mbappe are going nowhere.
Real Madrid played Vini, Mbappe, and Bellingham together. This combination did not work last year. The first half was terrible, and in the second half, Madrid played better than the first half. Three draws in a row. What are they missing? Is it on coach or players? What do you think?
Today Real Madrid players were roaming in the park, zero pressing intent. As a football lover, today’s match like a legends match, uncles over 40 age with multiple pain in body came to play game. Such waste of time For a viewer.
I think Xabi might not be good enough for Real Madrid
Yall should keep glazing Madrid and not tell them the truth, they’ve been bad all season, relying on pens and red cards to opponent to win.
Is this a coincidence that every time Real Madrid are struggling they will be given dubious penalties and favourable decisions? It must be very frustrating for teams in La Liga knowing that they are gonna be robbed against this team, shameful!
