Lost today at home to Villarreal. Before today was 3 draws in 3 games and 2 goals scored now in 4. The from 4 looks way in decline for me.why whats going off?
Dunno. But I'm enjoying every minute of it.WTF is going on with Madrid!? Squad needs some serious revitalising imo.
Defo agree that Zidane tactics or lack of are questionable and looks a bit lost right now. But there’s no denying Benzema is past his best which is seriously hurting Ronaldo. Who is still quality but hasn’t been the same since his last injury’s. Bale always injured. Marcelo has been terrible at the back.It's the same squad that just won 2 European Cups back to back, a feat last accomplished by Sacchi's Milan which plenty of people consider the most dominating side to ever play the game.
The idea that they need complete overhaul is rather far-fetched. It's more of a question whether Zidane really knows what he is doing, or whether he's the luckiest person alive, because I was never convinced which is the case even back when they were winning things.
First year he basically did nothing beyond aping Rafa's lineup, tactics and formation, and lucked to the CL final on the back of some of the easiest knockout phases ever seen, and barely crawled past Athletico in the final. Last year they weren't any better at first until he accidently stumbled on a better lineup when Bale got injured and got replaced with Isco.
That's hardly a convincing record even if by pure trophy count he's already one of the best managers of the modern era.
Who would of thought it. Madrid possibly not making top 4 :O agree about the CL. But there gonna have to seriously pick it up and turn it on!Madrid will doubtless come alive come the knock-outs the CL next month and step up to another level.
Still the team to topple for anyone wanting to be victorious in Kiev for me.
Ronaldo going down hill pretty rapidly, he's virtually only about putting it in the onion bag these days. Sad to see one of the best ever approaching the home-straight.
Its not just Ronaldo even thought he is not the player he was. Benzema is terrible this season who was the perfect partner for Ronnie. Was so unselfish running the channels making space for Ronnie and laying on assists. Now he’s just a shadow of that player no link up play no hold up play nothing.No doubt he will always find ways to be effective in the midst of his decline, but it's a sad sight to see his latest inability to beat a man when he was beating 3-4 in one go on a regular basis 10 years ago.

That will play apart no doubt. But his form is beyond terrible. Even at the back end of last season on the league. Be hard to find a player to replace him tbh.Benzema's form doesn't have him in trouble; no Morata = no heat.
Not to many STR with a good all round game and unselfish. Costa at Atletico.Harry Kane.
