I agree with this because if they really wanted a striker then why would they let Joselu go at the start of this season, even though he is still very useful if used as a back-up option in Madrid's rotation.

For some reason, I always don't like Ancelotti's way of looking as if there are no big problems in his squad. Although I quite agree that the reasons for their player's confidence in being able to survive conditions like this reflect that he really believes in the player, of course there must be several other considerations that must be taken into account.
Currently they have several injured defenders and some of them will definitely be recovering until the end of this season because of their ACL. Seeing this, Ancelotti should pay more attention to more important things first because Alaba, Carvajal and Militao still have a long time to recover and even if they recover, the worst possibility is that they will have to re-adapt so it is clear that there must be other options to improve their performance in conditions like this.

First of all I don’t think they are anybody who would have actually thought of the current dilemma and as such just to work they had to honor Joselu who was the one home self to hand in transfer request.

As for This Ancelloti actually was confident of the attackers and nothing bad there we all thought that the arrival of Mbappe was a blockbuster but everything isn’t going as planned which is not good but also not the fault of the people.

As for the defensive aspect where Madrid are short off in the first team I think the board was the cause of the problem because it was first of all the saga which even involved Manchester United player Leny Yoro, with Madrid not having David Alaba back they wanted Yoro but wanted him in way too much less than the evaluation that the Lille board rated him and when Madrid fell out of the deal they decided not go for another player again which was the reason why they are in this defensive mess, I think they will actually break their own rule this time around and sign new players by January

Mentioning Joselu does not mean that I do not respect this player because in the end I really respect the decision he made but in the end the decision was made when Madrid felt that from the start their strikers were enough even without Joselu and now they are receiving the impact of what they decided in the transfer last summer where conditions did not go well made them think hard that there was a problem in their attack but actually it was not a problem of lack of strikers but the mentality and placement of players who were not too precise that made Madrid difficult to adapt and maintain their goal productivity.

For other conditions where they break the rules or not, it is actually not a benchmark because there is no rule that they cannot bring in players in January, as long as it still has a good impact on their changes then it is not wrong for them to try to do it rather than putting forward the ego by convincing themselves that their defense is strong with several injured players that will only make Ancelotti look arrogant with his inability to control the squad.
I like Ancelotti for some reasons but on the other hand for some decisions he always seems to have a lot of pros and cons especially for player issues and player transfers.
