Last season's poor performance had several issues, one of which was the increasing number of injuries. Meanwhile, Mbappe arrival also created a different impression, as Vinicius seemed to be no longer performing well. However, people forget that Vinicius simply provided an opportunity for Mbappe to score more goals and adapt quickly. Had Mbappe not arrived at Madrid, Vinicius would still have been known as a great player last season.

I will very much agree on this with you. Vini has had the teams back and for several seasons now, his been doing his very best so far. I think the Balloon d'Or loss to Rodri really affected him somehow. The arrival of Mbappe ment so many things and truth besaid, Vini helped Mbappe in the ways he could. I have watched several games where Vini chooses to pass the ball to Mbappe instead of taking a shot on goal.

I think Vinicius will win the Ballon d'Or in the future. Meanwhile, last season, Ancelotti probably asked Vinicius to provide more support to Mbapp. He seemed to struggle to adapt, but Vinicius did very well. I don't think Mbappe presence will dim Vinicius light, both are crucial players who will lead Real Madrid to much success next season.
