Hopefully, in the Girona game, Ancelotti won't make any attempts to pretend the game isn't important like he did against Ateltico.
Girona are still playing very well and Girona's consistency is still maintained so Madrid should not do things that are detrimental to their club.
Vini is still unavailable but there are still a few players who could be an option instead of forcing Jude into the striker position it would be better to force Rodrygo and Joselu even though in this case it seems that the 2 striker scheme is also a little hampering Rodrygo.
But by placing Jude back at second striker it could be a good thing because even though Modric played well but I think he is still very suitable as an attacking midfielder not a second striker.
Madrid have everything to be at the top of the table but they seems to forget that football doesn't favor just one club, other clubs wants to be at the top and to compete too. The Madrid era is coming to an end little by little, with this Girona team causing much scare for teams like Barcelona and even Madrid, I just wish they (Girona) continue with this good performance since the beginning of the season and let it not be only Madrid, Atletico Madrid and Barcelona that would be contending for the title.
Right from the beginning of the season I said it that the combination of Benzema and Vinicius Jr is very deadly but since big Benz left and Vinicius Jr went on injury break, the Madrid team hasn't been the same, let's forget the fact that Bellingham is on fire but it can't be compared to Benz and Vinicius Jr. Madrid should try as much as they can to get a proper number 9 instead of getting the man Bellingham in that number 9 position, it might be working but for how long? Big games are coming and the player might lose those touches.
Girona did play very well for the start of the season but despite all that I still feel that they still can't compete to the stage where they are said to be one of the clubs to be a champion candidate because in the end with their current condition especially in terms of their players I only feel that they will only be one of the dark horses when they can maintain their performance like today.
But on the other hand, gradually they will definitely be eroded because of the difficulty of maintaining performance. It would be great if they could maintain consistency in La Liga but this will be too difficult for Girona with the strength of their players who are still considered ordinary.
As for the title, although we are tired of Madrdi, Barcelona or Atletico being in the top 3 as regulars, we can't do much because the strength of these 3 big clubs is different from the clubs below them for La Liga.
