Real has a big problem, one I have been on since before Mbappe even went there 

Mbappe is having trouble as a CF with them, probably more so than he he was as a CF at PSG

and no way will they shift him to LW, as Vini Jr is there

simple solution

sell us Vini Jr

OR

sell us Mbappe

and then they buy Håland

win win win

gets Håland out of the EPL

blocks Barca from buying him

and we get one of the 3 best players on the planet

Real problem is that they dont have creative midfielders... Only physical defended oriented ones.. 

yep

Modric is now limited due to be 39yo and even slower (he never was a pace master)

Bellingham is in a slump overall, and is not super creative anyway

Valverde is a superb CMF, the best in the world, but he is not all that creative (it's his only remote weakness)

Diaz is not the answer IMHO

Ceballos is rubbish

Camavinga is also not creative

and Tchou is a DMF

 

they so miss Kroos, who was the glue and also a superb passer

[Vesper 28,864]

Barca have (creative MFers)

Gavi 
Pedri 
Frenkie de Jong  (to a point, he is a bit like a poor man's Kroos)
Fermín López 
Dani Olmo   

[Vesper 28,864]

Transfermarkt surely HAS to lower Bellingham's €180m valuation if his slump continues

[Vesper 28,864]

and hats off to Raphinha

stepped up under huge pressure and finally is now world class

every bit (actually far better atm) the player we were so hot to buy a while back

ESPN saying exactly this now

[Vesper 28,864]

the only La Liga game Barca has dropped points in was when they put out a side with only 4 starters and a tonne of youth/reserves

Football is in problem if Vini, Mbappe and Jude are apparently 3 best players. All look shit.

Bells is not a top 3 player IMHO, for sure not at the moment

and Mbappe and Vini Jr look more and more like they are incompatible

also, Mbappe is likely not right in the head atm, as he is accused of rape here in Stockholm (I think he perhaps is being set up, Sweden has the widest defintion rape laws in the EU, and so many get falsely accused, ask Julian Assange).

Exactly, I always questioned how Real Madrid would have a balanced side without a player like Kroos in midfield. 

The French duo and Valverde are great at most things but definitely not creativity.

Clownlake need  look to Barcelona   how to build a team of  young players, but not mainly with young players, but also with worldclass experience around them to learn from  and manager with experience also . Their young players deliver results immediately while our players "need time"

they only have 2 outfield players over 28yo

and only 4 more over 25yo

Militao ACL and season finished. Second big injury for him.

WOW

I missed that

and Vasquez was also injured yesterday

SURELY Real Madrid now have to go and massively upgrade in January in their back 4

Alaba will be so so rusty when he comes back

 

[Vesper 28,864]

madness for Real Madrid atm

these are their players who can play in the back 4

as Tchou can play as an emergency CB 

look at the injuries

Militao and Carvajal out for the season

Militao is maybe done for good as a high quality starter as this is his 2nd massive knee blowout

Alaba coming off a super long layoff, also massive knee injury

they basically have Rudiger and then shite

Vallejo and Fran Garcia are so not good enough

Mendy is meh

Barcelona lost at home 1-2 to Las Palmas
