And so you then are very reliant on late runs from midfielders to fill that space.
And when Bellingham left, that space didn't get filled.
And then you combine it with...
Vinny making seven cutbacks so nobody knows when to run in front of a defender.
And Mbappe maybe just hasn't quite got back to form after he was out with the knee.
And so there is some voids there that Real Madrid will need to address next season if they want to challenge for the title.
Real Madrid are basically laying their season on the line saying, look, we'll come good in the Champions League.
Yeah.
Now, that's a big ask now.
Bear in mind, it was a hugely exciting first game.
It was a brilliant game at the Bernabeu between Real Madrid and Bayern Munich.
But I think anybody watching it, whilst Real Madrid had a lot of chances and were dangerous on the break, you'd be hard-pressed to make an argument that Bayern Munich were not way slicker, passed it better, were more coherent as a team in the way they moved around and they rotated.
And they have got a natural number nine.
Yes, they do.
Who has had some injury issues and he's missed some games and he's not fully fit, but still did the business at the Bernabeu.
So, you know, it's a big risk when you're basically saying, right, this is it.
This is what we're playing for this season now is the Champions League and this is what we're going to lay this on the line.
And almost to a certain extent...
give the La Liga title and say, well, it's not really as important.
So we don't need to, we don't have to worry about putting... It's easy to say that when you're six points down and now soon to be nine points down.
