    What a fucking joke of a player!! Score all the goals you want but if you don’t play for your team you don’t deserve to play for a club of Real Madrids caliber!!

    He’s a pest that needs to change his attitude or get out. At this point hes just chasing his records

  3. I feel that Arbeloa should try him as an attacking midfielder. With Gonzalo as a 9(not a right winger). Vini in the Left, Fede on the Right. Tcho/Cama and Jude/Arda behind him.

    At least for a couple in the last 20 minutes.

  4. He thinks he is Messi playing like a false 9. Sit down turtle, time to play Gonzalo and wait until Mpenal is fully health

    Not only his positioning is horrible, but his first touch and passing is below average.

  6. Why isn’t the game progressing like it did when Xabi first arrived? Arda–Mbappé connections used to be excellent, especially Mbappé’s runs behind the defense what happened to those? Is this an individual performance issue, or is Arbeloa’s game mechanism failing? There’s a major problem here, and aside from individual performances, RM is currently showing a truly miserable style of play.

    He’s literally drawing the defenders to whoever has the ball rather then making a run and drawing them aways from the ball carrier

  8. like okay I get it that he’s not comfortable with pulling defenders but like what’s his reasoning of being behind the midfield line?
    I’d just take Asensio and place him in CF, he’s not very good in CB anyways, at least he can score headears alright

    I rather have vini 3v1 and fail then to see this shit lol jk but seriously valid criticism

  10. Doesn’t matter if he scores 50 goals per year or the fact that he is a top 3 winger in the world. He is not a number 9 and RM needs a number 9 at the moment.

  11. Real Madrid will never win a UCL with Mbappe on the theam imo. Even la liga will be very rare if at all. At least until perez will let a manager discipline him to play properly tactically. He can score 50+ goals a season it doesn’t matter if the team overall can’t win certain difficult and important matches.

  12. He is not a 9!! Why are we trying to force our best player to play a role he clearly cant do. Send him to the left, bench(sell) vini and we slap a real #9 in the center. This is sad to watch every game….

    I don’t get why all the players don’t push forward into the box when there’s an attack . It gives the person with the ball no option but to pass back
