Mbbape is an amazing signing for sure and if Real Madrid can go back to their form before, then Mbbape dream of becoming the world best player will surely come to pass. Mbbape has been scoring back to back in their recent matches not only scoring he has been scoring more than a goal in some match and yesterday he scored another two. Even with Real Madrid bad performance last season he was still the highest scorer in La Liga and then imagine when the team will pick form, it will be massive and undefeatable. They are 5 points above Barcelona though Barcelona haven't play theirs.
Real Madrid can't go back to their previous form, maybe they can do better and be a new players in the league. Their forward was never like this, Mbape plays a new role, Vinicious barely do better because he is not having that good support from Modric and Kroos, born left due to age. Rodrigo isn't longer giving a start role, most of the time he ply second half or half game, the back line isn't that strong, any top defender from previous Madrid are now battling with injuries.
The past has been Anceloti, he has his favorite and what I like about him, no matter the public opinion he will used who he think is best for a particular role. For now, I wouldn't say Xabi isn't trying but he is going gambling, trying different patterns to see who is better and who is off without the team. I'm sure that with time, he will get it but maybe the team would be having alot of criticism, some people don't believe a team will have a bad season and that's not the case.
