Real Madrid do not look very sharp this season but it is expected, they made some changes to their squad and a new manager this summer so it is expected that they will have a slow start to the season and pick up gradually but the good thing is that they are managing to get the results despite the struggles I think that is the most important thing for them.
Actually what I see with Madrid is that they are even making progress even as it does look like they are not as brilliant as we use to know them and I see that as veryyr important because it is better to keep moving nad progressively improving than remaining stagnant, they have been winning their games even if as it does not come off impressive they are still amassing points for which by the time they get better they will still not be lagging behind. Teams like Barcelona who will want to contend the title are going to be on their toes if they must equate.
We haven't seen the overall performance of the teams in La Liga yeah maybe from the last 2 matches we see their performance is not stable but we still have some reasons there, Real Madrid scored 4 goals in 2 games and have not conceded while Barcelona scored 6 goals and conceded 2 goals well, I assume both teams haven't found their best form so at least we have to wait until mid season.
On the other hand I see Mbappe taking his place on the top scorers list and this is one proof that Real Madrid can still be relied on in the title race while the top players from Barcelona have not yet taken their places, only Lamine Yamal is in the top Assist. I can see Tajon Buchanan's name in 2nd place who played his first season in Laliga, will he be a competitor for Laliga top players?
