Game over..unless Barcelona lose tonight, it would take a miracle to win La Liga..I suspect things could get worse with this super-thin squad. Something isn't right with the over-fatigued lineup. I'm pretty sure some players are struggling with fitness issues/injuries but are playing nonetheless: Rodrygo and Fede. Kudos to Mallorca for neutralizing Ceballos and Vini (which is so easy it seems). And to whoever's call it was to let Asensio take the PK..FU** YOU
I would lay of Mariano. He's not had a fair chance since he's arrived here and whenever he does play, you are brining on a very rusty player. Since team is missing a quality striker. That's the main issue.
That's over for La liga. Barca wins it. Time to plan for next year. Sevilla isn't beating Barca, or any of the other teams. None of them are as motivated to beat Barca as they are Real Madrid. Winning the CWC, which is a big IF for this squad, would be little solace.
No. I’m not blaming Mariano. He is limited and shouldn’t even be here anymore. I’m blaming the club for making him the only backup striker in the squad. It was clear in the summer we needed more options and even more clear in January when our insane schedule took shape. Sorry, we ********ed up.
Lack of attacking options like everyone mentioned here. Will be very hard to win the league now...but must keep fighting. Carvajal/Asensio....are simply not starting material for Real Madrid. Painfully obvious. Camavinga was the best again today. Great quality shown. Letting Cancelo at RB slip away for a loan...is borderline criminal lol. Hala Madrid.
Mariano actually put in some work compared to a bunch of other players who got 70+ mins on the pitch. Were people watching this game?
We’ve made winning the league tough on ourselves. Hard to win when the attack is so bad. Also Asensio was missing that pen all day. Awful finishing technique.
And how someone can say 'we don't need new players'? I mean seriously, options.. are Mariano, Odriozola??
The only good thing about crashing out of the league would be a deserving slap to the face wake up call to management and Flo. Didn’t make any signings to an already thin squad and now with injuries it’s even worse.
Pep is helping out Real Madrid, while Barca is cruising to a title? In what universe do you see that happening?
So we mock even Barca players do it? It’s like there is some massive agenda the referees have to Madrid. Lol
Another lame excuse! First it was non overlapping over defensive fullback, now it is unavailability of others in the box. If he were the kind of player we all hype him to be he’d require nothing else, but his own individuality to score all goals.
Exactly. When people asked Flo why he didn't go for Haaland over Benzema, his response was [paraphrasing]: "We have the best player in the world in Benzema and best squad, we don't need reinforcements.". We go get Endrick during the winterbreak, who won't be at Madrid for 2 more years. Wth is the upper management at Real Madrid doing? Wasted season, and Carlo gets the blame when it's actually worse.
