Xabi will succeed but he is facing selection challenges. You cannot keep a player like Vinicius Junior on the bench when he is fit. I am glad the new coach is featuring young players like Rodrygo and Arda Güler but introducing Vinicius in the second half is wrong. We saw his impact immediately when he came in, giving an assist and scoring a goal. The best solution might be letting Rodrygo leave for another club because both players (Vinicius) are too good to be on the bench.

It is better to start a game with players who can propel and project your tactics. Vinicius Jr is not that guy that presses enough. Good thing I saw with my own eyes when they played against PSG during the Cwc. I'm cool with him coming from the bench until he learns to press and also add to his defending skills rather than stroll around. I don't watch this football with sentiment,  Vinicius Jr need to convince Xabi Alonso into doing that.

Look clearly About Real Madrid positioning, they are literally playing Anceloti kind of pattern. Cortois attest to it that that's what they are playing so far but they have been trying so hard to break away from it to get close to Xabi more better but since things are difficult under short time, he is playing the strategy to make it look better. I don't really care about this selection of position and who impress the team or not, just win any match whether it's hard or easy.

I'm still interested in Rodrigo place but Xabi is doing what he was told to do. Real Madrid front line isn't as complex as any people are exaggerating it. It was the same patterb until Mbape came and wasn't doing well but the team took the responsibility. I saw Rodrigo reaction when he was substituted in their last match with Oviedo and it wasn't a good one. Things are really going on with Real Madrid team completely, they are not leaving up to their 2021 season.
