UEFA Champions League 2024/25 Season

[Justbillywitt]

In as much as it's expected of Kylian Mbappé to hit the ground up and running in his scoring of goals at Real Madrid and starts performing as expected, but it still very early to expect that such performance from him, despite his an incredible player that wouldn't find it very difficult to adapt and blend into any team which he finds himself, Mbappé has just had few weeks play time at Madrid, to me, I won't expect much now from him and until after his first season at Madrid, but if he does performance well, then good.

To whom much is given much is expected. Normally Mbappe is not the kind of player that will go come into a team and still need like a year or more to settle in. He is the kind of player that people expect to hit the ground running immediately with hat tricks and assists. Real Madrid bought him with the intention that he will start delivering goals immediately from the first game. The expectation on him is very high and it's quite a weight for such a young man like Mbappe to carry. Either ways he has to live up to the expectations because he has been doing it for years for both his former club and country. Not many football fans understands the fact that players do need time to adapt. Majority of the fans are not patient, if Mbappe don't start delivering goals and assists soon we might see some Madrid faithfuls turning against Mbappe. So Mbappe should have this in his mind and start putting more efforts.

Unfortunately it is not as imagined as before and I think Real Madrid will still go through a tough competition even though they have luxurious depth. Their problems are quite complex from the chemistry between players which is still weak to other unexpected factors. Winning the 5 titles that exist this season is a challenge and at least they can first win 3 major titles to complete the treble nickname that they have never gotten.

Ancelotti made several changes to his match tactics in the new season, as well as changing Madrid's formation. But before he could properly implement the strategy, Bellingham suffered an injury. And after that several other key players in Madrid's squad have suffered injuries. For this reason, Ancelotti cannot implement the 4-2-3-1 formation. And in the last match, Madrid reverted to their old 4-3-3 formation.

Ancelotti is likely to make further changes to his match tactics and formation once the injured squad players return to the squad. And I think Madrid will probably play in a 4-2-3-1 formation. I believe that Madrid's performance will be stronger if the injured players of the Madrid squad return to the squad. Because we have seen these players perform well in the previous season as well. So it can be expected that their performance will be stable in this season as well.

So Mbappe should have this in his mind and start putting more efforts.

Usually Mbappe doesn't like to score between assists or assist anyone. I have noticed that the goals scored by him have very little contribution from others. It wouldn't be wrong to call him a selfish footballer, but if anything is better than selfishness, selfishness is better. Most of the time he contributes more to the goals he scores. I don't think it's fair to excuse Mbappe's inability to fit in with the team behind his good or bad performances. Because Mbappe is not a player who needs to adapt to the team to play well. But I think Mbappé is feeling the pressure because of the transfer and the high expectations on him. Due to which he is not able to perform conveniently.

No one would be wrong to deny that Mbappe is a quality player. It would not be wrong to say that he is the main player of his old club and national team. He has demonstrated his ability several times. For example, his hat-trick goal in the final of the 2022 FIFA World Cup almost left Argentina in tears. But they eventually became world champions thanks to a penalty save by their goalkeeper Amy Martinez. But I think a player cannot last at a club based on past performances. Must give good performance. The matter of Mbappe should not be seen differently. If he doesn't return to form soon, it's only natural that there will be voices against him.

Real Madrid this season will participate in at least 7 different competitions, the Champions League and La Liga are certainly their main priorities. We can easily see the reason, their weekly expenses are quite large, by winning the two competitions, Real Madrid can operate the club and maintain its existence as a dominant team every season.

Ancelotti has the most ideal squad at the moment, which can make his job easier, besides that the current Real Madrid squad is a dream for every manager.

As far as I know there are 5 different competitions this season that Real Madrid is playing, namely La Liga, Champions League, Copa del Rey, Spanish Super and Club World Cup, but I think Carlo Anceloti's priority is not only La Liga and Champions League. Anceloti definitely wants the Treble Winners title to create history for himself at Real Madrid like Pep Guardiola did. Real Madrid has a good and complete squad, they must be able to maximize the best results this season.
But the many injuries experienced by Real Madrid players at this time can hinder Real Madrid's journey to achieve the results that Carlo Anceloti expects, the coach must work very hard so that the club performs well with the players they have and in the first match in the UCL Real Madrid will face the Bundesliga club Stuttgart, it seems this is not too difficult because I am sure Stuttgart will not be able to make it difficult for Real Madrid.

The number of competitions that Madrid has to play certainly forces them to be able to rotate players well, as a big team and handled by experienced coach, of course they don't want to lose a single trophy from the competition they participate in ,so I think all competitions will certainly be played seriously and not just La Liga and the Champions League, see the number of injured players at the moment, Madrid journey may be a little difficult, but that doesn't mean they won't focus on all of these competitions, because we know how Madrid and Ancelotti have had great ambitions to win every trophy so far.

Among the players mentioned in this list, 6 players are very important players for Madrid's squad. And these are the players we see in Madrid's starting XI. With half of the players in the starting XI facing injuries, Madrid's performance will naturally be somewhat unstable. There is no doubt that Ancelotti is an experienced coach. But since so many important players of the squad are not with the squad, we don't know how Madrid will perform in the next three matches.

Madrid will play against Real Sociedad, Stuttgart and Espanyol in their next three matches. Madrid needed the likes of Bellingham, Tchouameni and Camavinga in matches against Sociedad and Stuttgart. Without these three key midfielders it will be difficult to keep the squad stable and win these two matches. I am looking forward to see how Ancelotti takes the strategy in the next two matches. Ancelotti and Madrid are understandably very popular at the moment.

The player injuries experienced by Real Madrid at this time could indeed be an obstacle for Real Madrid to perform well in every match, but I also believe in the level of consistency of the current Real Madrid team. Because Real Madrid's mentality in the Champions League is always very big and Ancelotti himself certainly knows what to do and give his best for the team with the current conditions even though one of them is having to be smart enough in rotating players when the match schedule looks quite close for several competitions.

I doubt that Real will have any problems in the group stage of the Champions League, and given the new format, even if there are a few unexpected results, it will still not prevent them from getting out of the group. Militao will be back in a few weeks, and without Alaba they have been playing for a long time, Bellingham, in my opinion, is also ready to play, so Ancelotti does not have big problems with the squad, any injury is unpleasant for a coach, you can’t prepare for it. Now Real will have an important match with Real Sociedad, because they cannot lose points in La Liga.

You know, Rodrygo and Federico Valverde are two who could do anything to uphold the them.
What kind of mentality is it?? I don't know, just Bravo man .
Not only Mbappe and Vini jr. Every player of Los Blancos are so determined to win everything as much as they can.

R.madrid is undoubtedly the best team in football as we speak. If the players have so much confidence in themselves, who am I to look at it the wrong way?... It's obvious that they're never going to back down. Even before the endeavors althrough -- when the transfer windows began, I always knew Madrid would maintain the standard that earned them the back-back-back champions league titles under omw of greatest coach, Zidane.

I'd like to see them meeting up with bigger teams as the competition goes by.

Real Madrid is a team with a very impressive history and in fact,  the great quality of Real Madrid is still happening today. Unlike with other top teams that have a great history in the Champions League, but until this moment, other top teams do not have good quality, because they also have difficulty winning trophies although just in the domestic league. So, with such differences, of course every player who plays for Real Madrid will certainly have a very good champion mentality too.

But indeed, for this moment at least the young Real Madrid players still need time to be able to have the excellent quality of performance as before. Therefore, although Real Madrid is sometimes doubted,  but the fact is that Real Madrid always manages to advance further in the Champions League and of course, Real Madrid is always a very dangerous team for any team.

Indeed, the majority of Real Madrid players are extraordinary and in fact the Real Madrid players have always been extraordinary, who have a strong mentality and also good performance and the era of Zidane was indeed a moment that is hard to forget for Real Madrid fans because 3 times consecutively won the Champions League and this was extraordinary. But of course Ancelotti is no less great at coaching and as far as I know, Ancelotti has brought Real Madrid to the Champions League title 3 times but unfortunately not 3 times in a row like Zidane.

but it is true that until now Real Madrid still has good quality and also has a good history in the past. Yes, every player who plays for Real Madrid always has a winning mentality, of course because Real Madrid has always get trophies. and up to now it has been proven that there are still many star players from Real Madrid and this is certainly lucky for Real Madrid so far and indeed Real Madrid always has a professional coach so it is no surprise that Real Madrid will continue to be successful.

For young Real Madrid players, of course they always need time to continue to improve their performance. However, usually in the end Real Madrid always succeeds in winning the title. and I see that in the Champions League this season, it will certainly not be easy for Real Madrid to become champions, but I personally predict that Ancelotti's troops will have great potential to become champions again in the UCL this season.

Madrid is indeed a big team, they are the favorites and will always remain the favorites to win the Champions League, but this time, it seems like they are not as strong as we are expecting, because they have large injury list and the list consists of some important players in the squad that are reliable especially in the midfield and the defense. And again, we can not because of that conclude that they will not perform well because anything can happen and Ancelotti is a big coach with great experience and there are players that can do wonders in the team especially Mbappe and Vinicius Jr and the main players will get well before the competition mover further; nevertheless, there are several teams that can do better in the Champions League especially Manchester City, Arsenal, Liverpool, Bayern Munich, Inter Milan and the rest of them; therefore, we have to wait and see how the competition go before we can conclude.

The problem of many team casualties can be figured out with the rest of the players on the bench. The main reason i like Ancelotti a lot is because even at this period he knows what to do, although you will still be some shaking in their defense and midfield but that won't stop them from winning games since they have a strong froward to score for them. Hopefully, most of the players on injury will be back before mid-time. Again, I would say that with their current team status, they are not strong enough to face teams like Mnajester City, Barcelona, Bayern PSG or Arsenal in the UCL.

Real Madrid has several injured players, especially in the back line and midfielder. And some have picked up injuries in the ongoing international break. Well, this will clearly make things a bit more difficult for Real Madrid this season. Especially in LaLiga and in the Champions League. and maybe in several other competitions. but fortunately every player who was injured was not in a really serious condition. Because it looks like they will recover quickly and only miss a few matches. So Ancelotti can be relieved about this situation.

But I hope that the number of injured players during this international break will not increase again. Because it would be a nightmare for this team. Even though this team has good reserve players, their core players would still be better if they were fit and not injured at all.
