This was exactly the point I was making in one of my responses earlier, the criticism is very much needed and essential, I still do not know why most persons keep making it feel like the fact that the season just begun is enough excuse to not put out any form of criticism against a coach probably because they see it as too early, they are forgetting that all of these gets to make the coach understand he needs to sit up and cannot continue that way as the people will not like it but again some people want to wait till the end of the season maybe, before they criticise as they aught.
However, criticism based solely on one match is clearly not justified, especially since Madrid managed to secure three points, which is actually a good start. Regardless of whether they have some issues with finishing and chemistry, these can certainly be improved, as Xabi is not sitting idly by on the bench and he certainly knows what he needs to do in the upcoming matches.
There’s nothing wrong with criticism, but it’s important to note that Madrid’s current situation isn’t that bad. I feel this criticism is somewhat excessive because, after all, a club undergoing a new defensive transition and implementing a new coaching system isn’t something that can be perfected overnight. It takes time, and Xabi is still working to address those issues.
