I don't know if Real Madrid can return to the levels we are all used to. Let's always remember that the path will be tough and tortuous. It's not easy to deal with players who are used to being prima donnas and who can't understand that many times when they are removed from the team it is for the good of the club. I'm a bit sorry for Rodrigo, but I think it's necessary for him to find himself in another team.
I'm also being skeptic to Xabi's Madrid now. Not because they perform badly, but they're too depending on their superstars. It's time for them to build a collective club that is not always relying upon individual brilliance. The only way is that by starting to remove their superstar such as Rodrygo. I know he's young and well developed, but can't blend to the system well.
However, if you ask me which player to remove. I'd prefer Vini over Rodrygo. It's because Vini's selfishness much more destructive to the club.
Xabi Alonso has proven that he can build a team with even strengths across all departments when he was coach of Leverkusen, so I think he could do the same thing again with Real Madrid in the future.
At this point, we can't make any judgments because Xabi Alonso is new to Real Madrid and still needs time to adapt.
Regardless of who Xabi Alonso chooses, I'm quite optimistic that Xabi Alonso can make Real Madrid even better.
And it's also important to remember that Real Madrid are the Champions League champions, so they must remain a force to be reckoned with no matter the circumstances.
