Ossasuna is not really "that" great, yeah this game looked close but it is not really that close and this was looking close for one reason because Real Madrid missed many chances. If half of the easy chances converted, the game would have been 5-0. Not saying all their shots, literally just half of their chances.

In any case, I think it's close to what we are facing right now and that is why I think Ossasuna could be just a midtable team and nothing more. That isn't bad though, I mean they should be happy because they are spending midtable team money to players and everyone, so they end up where they deserve. Being worse than what you deserve is a worse situation, so being where they deserve is actually good in football world because you get what you expected.

Real Madrid missed many chances, if they had taken advantage of half of them it would have been a landslide victory
in any case, better this way, one step at a time
Maybe he didn't deserve the victory in this match but i am sure he can improve and do better, let give him time

Why will you say that Madrid doesn't deserve the victory over Osasuna. They players performance was good. The only problem is that they couldn't penetrate Osasuna defense and score more goals. If it wasn't for the penalty that came up, I don't think that Madrid would have scored any goal.

Therefore, Xabi Alonso needs to improve the team performance and make the attack flexible to cope and overcome any kind of defensive strategy that is before them. This will enable more goals to flow in.
