Real Madrid needs serious performances, and I think if all these injured players are back in the team, their poor performances will stop because Dani Carvajal's absence in the defense is also a problem. I also think Ancelotti needs to buy more players in the January transfer window in order to compete for the La Liga title, but if they continue playing like this, there is no doubt Barcelona will win the league again because right now Barcelona fans are happy with this outcome.
I think just one defeat received by Real Madrid does not deserve to judge their performance too much. I agree about the player shopping that Ancelotti needs to do because that is the team's need to face the tight schedule of matches they play in several competitions at once.
Utilizing the squad available now is not the solution to targeting a trophy at the end of the season. With Real Madrid's 3-1 defeat last night, I think Ancelotti has realized what he has to do with the club management.
Their poor performance started since some of their players got injured. They have been struggling to win matches against teams that they are supposed to trash, but due to their lack of a complete squad, they win most of their games at almost the end of the match, which is not supposed to be for a team like Real Madrid. We are looking forward to winning the La Liga title this season against Barcelona.
Compared to Barcelona and Girona, who have yet to lose any matches but have drawn one match each, they score more goals than Real Madrid, and just a draw yesterday dropped Real Madrid to a third position in the La Liga table. It will be very difficult for them to go back to that top now if they continue playing like this.
