Appearances
It's the way they play.
I remember the first game uh the first games I've watched when Mbappe moved to Real Madrid, it was Rodrigo, Kilin Mbappe, Vinicius.
It's not just they're all hovering in the same area of the pitch.
They're all like looking to receive closer to the touchline or like in wider areas and make the exact same run inside.
And what that means is it just muddles each other's runs.
They get in each other's way.
If it was a case of I don't know, Vinicius wanting to stick to the touchline and then take players on and Mbappe was just staying a bit fur like a bit more narrow and just wanting to get into that half space you'd say, then maybe it'd work.
But they kind of all want to get on the ball and they all want to dribble at defenders.
Yeah.
So
I I don't know, I just look at Real Madrid and just think I can't see with Mourinho not them getting out of this cycle anytime soon.
mean, ironically now, um, Colin correct me if I'm wrong, but I was reading an article the other day that fans are being Vinicius Jr.
for a multitude of reasons, but one of them was that some of them just don't think he's justifying his new contract.
At what point in the training ground, how many weeks in uh is when Kidding and Beppi's gonna start whispering to Arda Good again?
It's Mourinho, it's actually not that good.
It's like is it just me?
I mean I guess it doesn't quite answer your question, but it ties into let's say that we get a few months in and you know the whispers do start happening on the training ground and they start, you know, talking about Mourinho thinking he's not you know not good enough.
Real Madrid, like you say, are they ever gonna become that tactically cohesive team in Man City?
And it plays into what you talk about before, Colin, where they're never gonna fall that low in the Liga.
So then
