Whether we realize it or not, Madrid is actually on the verge of instability after several important players were injured, but this can still be covered because Madrid has high-level players. Luckily several players were absent right after the UCL break. So he has time to improve, while in La Liga his current position is still safe because his rivals are not in a threatening condition due to being busy dealing with increasingly deteriorating finances. However, instead another competitor comes from Girona, who is still in 2nd place in the standings with a point difference that is not too far away. Another conclusion is that Madrid was saved right when the transfer window opened and they have everything to immediately upgrade the depth of the squad.
Real Madrid has not lost a single game of the last 17 games they played. They have the best defense in La Liga and they are the only team with Manchester City to finish the Champions League group with the full 18 points out of 6 games. I understand that they are suffering from injuries, but this isn't the first time Vinicius Junior is injured this season. They had to replace him for quite a while already and yet were able to play successfully.
There is still some time left for their players to recover and I don't see them being on the verge of instability. They have done it well until now and of course there is a limit for every club to handle injuries. But for now they are good.
Real Madrid coped well with the absence of an important player like Vinicious Jr this season because they were prepared for it. Injuries such as hamstring muscle injury can become chronic once it occurs, and Real Madrid cannot even count on him to recover and return, but if they fix this injury completely, I think Vinicious Jr. will return well and will contribute a lot to the team.
For example, he was not in the Real Betis and Atletico Madrid matches. If he was not injured and was playing, I think Real Madrid would not have lost any points even in these matches.
