    He's scored none apparently. But I don't know from how many tries. Rodrygo seems to have best technique when it comes to free kicks. Feels like he is getting handed a responsibility to keep everyone satisfied.

    Edit: looks to be from 9 tries

    Bro he outright sucks. I'm not even trying to be mean. There's better options for FKs...

    Lol he is terrible at free kicks. How can you get so little accuracy from free kicks when you are side footing them with such low power?

    Hopefully the ego boost from being the main free kick taker helps him to score more goals from open play, because I suspect he will get as many goals from direct free kicks as Militao will.

    Since when do marca (or AS) ever know what is going on? They just makes guesses.

    Someone saw Vinicius taking penalties after practice yesterday and they saw that and ran with it. So the "exclusive" today is based on their predictions from seeing that.

    You guys reckon this is real? We pay some good wages if so, but surprised Ceballos is so high.

    Sounds pretty accurate in gross figures. Mbappe 15 ME nett, Alaba 12 ME nett etc. Modric was 10 ME nett and took 50% discount to renew this summer so 10 M gross sounds accurate too.

    Vini, Mbappe, Rodrygo up front and Bellingham LCM, Tcho/Cama DM and Fede RCM, I guess.

    Rodrygo’s ball striking technique places him as the best free kick taker for us. Arda’s technique is interesting as well, I wonder if there’s some direct free kick potential there as well.

    Stupid; we did MUCH better with the 4-4-2 as it allows us to control midfield.

    Who is the source? Aren't they the same ones who said Mbappe would be taking FKs a day ago?

    Why take anything they say serious?

    JFD on Marca:

    Carlo Ancelotti is very clear about this and wants Fede Valverde to fill the void left by Toni Kroos with his departure.

    It will be a matter for everyone, but the Italian coach believes and trusts blindly in what the Uruguayan can contribute, assuming the role that the German had as a reference in the Madrid eleven.

    Agree with this. His signing was expensive at the time but it more than paid off. One of my favorite Madrid players.

    Hands down the most underrated player of his generation in my humble opinion.

    Some people just don't understand or refuse to see what's right in front of them.

    James Is the ideal player to replace Kroos' skillet in the team, he's arguable a better fit for the teams "needs" then Mbappe.. We already have some straight up drag racers and muscle cars to run at defenses in Vin, Fed, Jude, etc, someone to thread the needle is what's missing.
