It's Rudiger, it's Schormany, you know.
Yeah, he's a gift of birth.
I think you can see there's still a lot to learn.
What I'm struck about is he pops up all over the pitch.
And I don't know if that's...
if that's his role or if he still, or Arbeloa hasn't had a chance to work with him because certainly in terms of what Arbeloa is trying to do, if it is to provide a platform for Mbappe and Vini and Bellingham or whatever when they come back,
You need guys who are going to be more tactically disciplined.
Because you could say Valverde is not tactically disciplined.
He goes all over the place.
Yeah, but Valverde's experience and the game intelligence that he can make those movements at the right time.
I don't think Pitak is there yet, but he's a teenager.
He's a kid.
He will get there.
In terms of Real Madrid, we said this isn't necessarily a platform, but...
there's no escaping what you and I have said I think all along, is that to win the Champions League, if you have individual match winners and a standout keeper, you're in the game everywhere.
He's missed six penalties, I think, out of 20-odd or something like that.
Because I don't think, I mean, I'm sure it's happened that somebody's come back from four goals down and you may tell me right now when it's happened.
I'm really sorry.
I genuinely just wasn't thinking of that.
But you say it's just one goal, but it's a huge difference.
