Xabi Alonso is the new manager for Real Madrid and I believe will make every changes to make this team good again in the next coming season, although I was surprised after the defeat they recorded against PSG. But still later realize that they got new coach and the method of how they play have to change to I’m thinking that maybe is because they have new methods that is why.

I don't expect much from Madrid next season. Alonso is going to do his best, but Madrid's midfield is not good enough. They don't complement each other. They need another profile in that midfield, a profile like Kroos or Modric. With Valverde and Bellingham as Madrid's midfield, I don't think much will happen. Don't get me wrong, these are not bad players, they're very good players, but they're almost the same profiles in midfield. They need a more controlling figure beside them before they can work well.

Madrid has the individual quality, so when they meet teams that are not top teams, they tear them apart. When they meet smaller teams that are very compact and disciplined and have a balanced team, they struggle, but because they have more quality than these teams, they'll win in the end. When they meet a top team that has quality and technical players in midfield and attack, they'll lose. It's one of the problems they had last season, and I believe they will still have the same problem this season.
