The defeat to Lille showed that their front line is not well coordinated, Real Madrid have also rarely managed big wins since Mbappe arrival. In the midst of the bluntness of the front line, Ancelotti is also faced with Bellingham's sharpness which is decreasing after last season he performed very extraordinarily and often became the hero of Real Madrid's victory. Injuries to several key players also pose another problem, I think Ancelotti must be able to make his squad always appear balanced in order to compete with Barcelona this season who have performed extraordinarily since being coached by Hansi Flick.
Yes, the winner of La Liga this season is still unclear, Barcelona are one step ahead based on their current form, but Real Madrid can still make a surprise if Ancelotti can overcome all the problems they are currently facing.
A little disagree with some of these opinions.
Now we see how the current UCL match system and of course every coach and team must have a different strategy and defeat against Lille does not mean that Madrid will not be possible to win the title at UCL. All we have to see is how the end result of Madrid appearance in several matches to come.
And related to the attack line at this time does not mean blunt when the arrival of Mbappe but indeed the new player requires adaptation and if we talk about Belllingham, he actually does not experience a decline in performance but he just behaves more mature.
After the arrival of Mbappe, Belllingham only tried to succumb to continue to contribute to Mbappe and Vinic to get the results of the score for the team's victory. But even though the results are bad, it does not mean he doesn't have good performance but it's just that he is currently getting used to performing with quality players.
We'll see the final result whether Madrid is able to reach the final and my prediction Madrid will easily reach the final round at UCL.
