    I'm referring to the overall picture, not so much this match in isolation. And aside from Camavinga, none of those guys are pushing anyone out of the Madrid starting 11, internal competition is nonexistent here and the core players know it.

    Don't even get me started on the back line. Rudiger has absorbed every minute the last 15 months and running on fumes, Militao doesn't look like the player he was pre injury just yet, Vazquez considered adequate cover for Carvajal as we're heading into the year 2025 is some kind of sick joke and not even Lucas' fault really. Yeah, we're going to leak goals and the L's are going to pile up.

    He has a bench. The team has one of the benches in the world.

    Carlo just doesn’t trust them when he’a under pressure.

    It’s as if Carlo said to Endrick and Arda after the first few games: “That’s enough playing time for you boys”.

    Your bench isn't supposed to be the same level as your starting 11. No team has that. Not even the oil clubs. The bench should be players that 1. are capable of changing the game when they are brought on, 2. can cover for a position for long periods of time. All of those players outside of Endrick are capable of doing that. Absolutely 0 excuse not to use them more and then say the team is exhausted. The bench midfield and up is one of the best we've had in many years.

    I will not argue against the defense being torn by injuries, it's poor planning on our end. However, there is a decent alternative on the left, and if we rotated the midfield more, you can have Tchouameni rotated in defense as well. The RB is dire.

    Pair Tchouameni with Rudiger, shift Militao to RB, play a double pivot of Fede and Cama, Bellingham in the hole and a trident of Rodrygo, Vini and Mbappe.

    Team should be ashamed of themselves, and the club capped off two weeks of doing terrible in and out of the field.

    Losers.

    I think it's just not going to work with 2 players not working off the ball. I don't see Mbappe integrating until he's more involved.

    I’ve hear rumours that certain players are critical of the physical training.

    That's for the birds. Effort is crucial and we were so slow and lethargic. The way everybody defended at that first goal was pathetic. One guy misses the header Completely, another flops down hoping to get a foul and a third guy gets beat.

    Whooooof.

    The Club really talked about which one of our players deserved to be the best in the world and the team thanked them by going out there, replying to an email and going back home.

    Incredible. :D

    Zero excuses. Absolutely embarrassing display. We got plenty of rest and had all the reasons to come out firing today.

    The team is absolutely soulless at the moment.

    1. Poor season preparation by the club in terms of not addressing key holes in the squad especially in defence;

    2. Poor coaching; and

    3. Poor squad management.... we have young guys who could give us a lot....not even getting a look.

    It feels like Carlo has "lost" the team. No intensity, no effort....no fight. Every team has a chance to dominate us and create scoring opportunities easily.

    Feels like a lot of excuses for me. The players don't deserve to hide behind a coach that has done nothing but protect them and find any and every excuse under the sun for them.

    They are tired, they are sad, they are not feeling well. What babies.

    If they're all getting away with these piss-poor performances and their lack of effort it's because of the management and Carlo is part of it.
    No, I'd also put blame on the board too.
    Perez, JAS and co. need a reality check.

    I was kind of overlooking that at first but some of these players are too pampered or success has gotten into their heads a little bit too much, or both.

    I truly feel like this team succeeded earlier than the club expected, Vini, Camavinga, Bellingham, Rodrygo, practically all of those young players won the CL together way earlier than anybody expected and it sort of turbo charged certain aspects that don't happen otherwise.

    There's certain hints that show a lot of entitlement. Rodrygo's regular complaints about not getting recognition by the football press for example was odd.

    Come on man....you're purposely twisting this to make it seem like I'm giving players a pass.

    I'm not. Individual performances have been abysmal. I'm going to start at the back...Mendy...Militao...LV....Tchouameni....Jude....Vini....Mbappe... All have been bad these past 3 months.

    My point is that the problem starts at the top....

    Here if it makes you happier:

    4. Players are playing sh*t

    Read again. Board and Carlo first and main culprits in my opinion.
    Players are playing sh*t. Who said otherwise?

    The ones being personally attacked are only Carlo and Mbappe though

    Not saying everyone else should be attacked, I just don’t agree with only two people being the Target
