When he joined Real Madrid, many thought that Mbappe might not be able to do anything good, and he didn't do very well at first. However, as a young player, Mbappe took some time to adapt to the Real Madrid team. However, now we can really be sure from Mbappe's performance that he is really an extraordinary player. This season, it seems that his goal count will definitely be the highest, he is scoring great goals in every match, and he certainly came to Real Madrid with the aim of achieving something good, he will definitely succeed.
Xabi has changed the playing pattern of Madrid. Mbappe and the team are gradually executing Xabi's instructions. Just look at how many more balls are being touched by the Madrid players. Xabi is trying to combine collectivism and individual skills to make Madrid great. Last season when Madrid was struggling, Mbappe still performed well. This season is no excuse for him anymore, Madrid is now led by a great coach. Although I think the Madrid squad is not yet complete, I see that they will be better than last year. Madrid should be able to win a trophy this season.
I think Real Madrid can win trophies this year. They have the potential to win both La Liga and the Champions League. They could keep their squads broader and have more rotations. They could field substitutes in league matches and save their key players for the Champions League. Xabi Alonso fields different players than Carlo Ancelotti. From what I've seen, in-form players are important to him. He keeps a player like Bellingham on the bench because he's still not fully prepared.
