Real Madrid's injury list is piling up, and it's a damn problem. We're talking about a club with galactic expectations, playing in every competition imaginable. You can't run these guys into the ground. Ancelotti knows how to handle things. Managing this squad is only for the master. Mbappe's got the world on his shoulders, you can't burn him out before Christmas. The medical team needs to step up, too. This isn't just about fitness, it's about preventing these breakdowns
Nobody likes seeing their team on the back foot. But Real Madrid is built on resilience. They'll find a way. Ancelotti needs to be smart, the players need to be disciplined, and we, the fans, need to be patient
All clubs must have anticipated something like this, but what Real Madrid felt in my opinion was quite unlucky, because they felt something like this when the league had just started and also in their game they had not been able to fully find their best game, as evidenced by the 2 draws they felt from the 4 matches they had played.
As a coach, Ancelotti would definitely be very dizzy finding that many of his players were injured. He had to implement the second plan that he should have had from the start. The coach must have many plans, both regarding game strategy, the composition of players to be fielded (rotation), to players who can play in various positions. Last season, Ancelotti had rotated the positions of the players and it was quite successful and now he has to do more than that.
