My friends and I often talk about the Real Madrid squad during work breaks. And we have almost the same thought, namely that Real Madrid's balance has been reduced after the arrival of Mbappe. Not because Mbappe is bad. But it seems like several players in the Real Madrid squad don't want to lose out on competing with Mbappe there. Which makes Real Madrid team collaboration not as good as usual. The warm atmosphere in the squad faded a little. Ancelotti is an experienced coach and he might be able to bring this squad back to life at some point. But the most important thing is that all the players at this club must return to normal, namely that they work together well and build a good balance again. I hope everything can be resolved soon there. And yes, the defeat by AC Milan was truly unexpected. Moreover, with a quite striking score, namely 1-3.
Real Madrid have more experienced human resources than AC Milan from coach to players but in this match, they failed at their home stadium. AC Milan were even in a bigger crisis than Real Madrid but again they shown that in Champions League, AC Milan are a strong team with Champions League DNA. Real Madrid have many things to beat AC Milan in this match but they failed and continued their crisis in Champions League. With a new format of Champions League, Real Madrid actually feel some kind of pressure that they will have to leave Champions League this season very early.
Mbappe does not suit with a striker position but Real Madrid hoped that he can adapt to this position with time. He did not do it well and Real Madrid starts to feel importance of a world class striker like Cristiano Ronaldo or Karim Benzema. Injuries also affected Real Madrid in defense system and in this match, they let AC Milan scoring three goals, it's big shock.
