The gap now with Barcelona is 9 points and Madrid must really let go of La Liga and focus on fixing the stability of their squad. I don't doubt them but it would be better to be able to compete with Barcelona then it takes extraordinary consistency. Madrid is far behind not only in terms of player quality but also in terms of strategy there are not many options. Ancelotti seems to have lost his era now and the club needs an injection of a more aggressive coach, utilizing the abilities of his players so that they can create creativity in building attacks.
I don't see anything stopping Barcelona from winning the La Liga league this season because it has already shown that they are going to win it, they are ahead of Real Madrid with a point that can not be able to achieved easily, Real Madrid is not in good shape that will make people believe that they will be able to compete with Barcelona, Real Madrid performance is not good and we all know that it will be very difficult for them to challenge Barcelona, Hansi flick have make Barcelona a strong team this season and they know how to create their chances and score goals without not wasting their chances.
Real Madrid is full of Talented players, let me say Real Madrid is the best team in the world currently that has players in the team again, Carlo Ancelotti can not handle Real Madrid again, some people will say he can handle them because he coaches Benzema, Ronaldo and many big players but If we look at Ancelotti we all know that he is an old man he can't do what he did with Ronaldo, Benzema and Bale with this young players, he doesn't have the energy like before, I think Real Madrid need to get Xabi Alonso next season to make the team stand well as they want.
