With Florentino Pérez there is no need for the face-to-face meetings he sometimes likes to organize in Valdebebas with Ancelotti and, at most, with CEO José Ángel Sánchez, to demonstrate who is in charge at Real Madrid. Madrid and what are their goals, likes and dislikes. The President knows well how to deliver his messages to the locker room from his ACS office, because he does not go through the one that is tightly locked on the top floor of the Ciudad Deportiva. And in addition to the Ballon d’Or turmoil and the general blow, the problems surrounding the Bernabeu and relations with its neighbors, as well as the preparations for the upcoming Assembly, which worries him as it does not look like it will be the usual triumphal procession. I don’t want to distract attention from sports: He is very concerned about what he sees on the pitch and urgently demands improvement.
You can’t believe how poorly the team is performing in this first stretch of the season, in which they have already lost two games (Lille and Barca) and drawn three more (Mallorca, Las Palmas and Atlético Madrid) ). He understands – because the facts confirm this, and he likes to praise it to his like-minded people – that he did everything possible to ensure that the team improved and continued to develop without noticeable losses, with huge gains. efforts to not sell to any stars despite great offers coming in. Signing Mbappe and pairing him with Vinicius, Bellingham and Rodrigo is enough to make the team make a much better impression than they are letting on.
In the match against Lille he was already angry at the lack of collective activity he saw against an opponent too weakened by losses, and, already hungover, he made his gesture worse when he learned the next day that his team had run to 11 kilometers. less . At half-time against Borussia Dortmund in the final Champions League match, he delivered his harshest version to the coaches surrounding him on the sofa, according to several witnesses.
And in the match against Barça he confirmed what the Italian coach himself had already admitted in private as a self-critical gesture that does him credit: although he assures that he will do it soon, the reality is that he has not yet found the key.Of all the problems that Madrid faced in an unforgettable October that prevented them from becoming what they were and now six points behind Barca, Florentino is most worried about two things: the ease with which the defensive system explodes (14 goals conceded), Militao is far from his best form, and how lost he is Bellingham in no man’s land and so far from where he became the world’s top finisher last season. Although the white boss does his best to stay away from the field and keep his opinions private, his anger betrays him when he goes down to the locker room to greet the team at the end of matches. So no one would be surprised if Tchuameni’s replacements are linked together, or if Bellingham soon regains a more focused role on the board.
This midfield…
Tchouameni has not yet convinced the sports management to pay more than 80 million euros, including variables. Even at the peak of his career, he did not make the president completely forget Casemiro. And what can we say when the center is given lanes to organize the game, as Kroos did. However, as every time when doubts arise about a football player, those responsible for his arrival suddenly disappear and always slip in that some technical solution is harming him. There is a big difference with the moments in which he shines because he has stood out in other cases as well. That’s when everyone around the president takes it upon themselves to say who is the best intelligence officer in the world. Here are the merits of A.Celotti doesn’t exist.
Despite this, Florentino also carries some contradictory messages when he talks about football underground in the groups he divulges from time to time. Because as soon as he loses faith in Chuameni and no longer refuses to listen to offers that are tempting for him (he has a contract until 2028), it is not so easy to resolve this voting issue. And even less depending on your preferences. Camavinga, his favorite, has yet to establish himself in front of the defense and still makes enough conceptual errors to give him the flag as the sole midfielder calling the shots. As an inside or side – something that the main floor hates – it offers better performance because it doesn’t have as much weight and plays with more freedom. And internally they don’t see Modric starting in the most important matches.
They prefer him more as a fantastic option in the second half and as a tempo-setting example in games where rotations are necessary.Another thing the board doesn’t understand, and it’s a fairly common belief, is that the editorial line is set by the boss and then passed down from top to bottom. The fact is that they get little benefit from strong players. Of course, this opinion is largely due highlights that the club has excluded Güler from training since his arrival and that, in order not to put the coach in a delicate situation, they are gradually disappearing over time at the same rate at which Antonio Pintus is also losing screen share. He used to be very famous in videos and photos, although he is not always on the field and these are not the days to show off his physique.
Data
The truth is that the Turkish playmaker played 292 minutes out of 1350 played (15 games), which is 21.6%. Endrik fares worse: only 107 minutes (7.9%), when there are players like Valverde, who played almost everything (1302 minutes), and there are seven members of the squad who play more than a thousand minutes (besides the Uruguayan, Rudiger, Vinicius, Militao, Mbappe, Tchouameni and Courtois). Nobody at the club understands why Güler and Endrik are so little known when they shine for their national teams, and, moreover, they show excellent performances every time they take the field. The Brazilian has two goals and an assist, but has played four matches in a row without appearing for a single minute. He started in Lille and that match, including the defeat, took its toll on him.
The conclusion reached by those in high positions is that the best thing about the current squad is that no one believes in their indisputability and all the players feel deep down that whoever is behind them is putting pressure on them. Barça’s example, although painful at home, was devastating due to the trust in the entire squad and youth team, and the results obtained despite defeats. Encouraging competition is the best formula to bring out the best in everyone. For this reason, although Rodrigo is currently injured and lightweight
As for the coach, when it comes to recruiting eleven players, the club wants Ancelotti to know that he too must meet the requirements. Let it not be taken for granted that he is the first link of a fantastic four to fall when the midfield needs to be strengthened and more conservative. Among the many newcomers, veterans and heavyweights, Rodrigo has always been (and will be) one of the favorites. Let them tell Marco Asensio.Ancelotti therefore faces a difficult task.. On the other hand, this is not new and did not prevent him from emerging victorious from pressure on previous occasions. Improving, winning and making everyone happy is not easy. That’s why he took it upon himself to once again put his criteria first and stop paying attention to the barrage of opinions that surround him and sometimes confuse him.
