Real Madrid will need to use their players to the maximum as they aim to win both the Champions League and the Spanish league. Some injuries make their job difficult. Kroos' departure from the team at the beginning of the year already had a negative impact on them. He will no longer be the maestro of Real Madrid as he has retired. Madrid's midfield still feels his absence. That's why they aim to use every player in the best way possible and become champions in both tournaments.
Yes, Kroos' departure has left something missing in Madrid's midfield. now no player can replace Kroos's slick play. his free kicks and ball delivery really spoil the striker. we find it difficult to see players with his best performance in Madrid right now.
Ancelotti currently tends to optimize the speed of Rodrygo and Vinicius to enter the opponent's defense from the side. so far everything is going smoothly and they are playing well in the UCL and La Liga. Madrid is still the favorite to be able to compete for the title this season.
Although Toni Kroos was a very important midfielder that Madrid had for years and no one can dispute his role in the midfield more especially in pass delivery and accuracy, he was literally one player that singlehandedly controlled the midfield of Madrid perfectly without faults. The club is already missing Toni Kroos because no midfielder has been able to show same energy as Toni Kroos did.
Real Madrid don't have many problems for now regardless of some injury their players suffered but they are still very much trying their possible best because even when they faced some challenges towards the start of the season but they still managed to bounce back stronger so they are still likely to be the favourite team for the title.
