Yeah, I think so, but if we go back to last summer when they were trying hard to sign Mike Mignon from AC Milan, it's obviously obvious that... Obviously obvious, but they clearly didn't believe in Sanchez, otherwise you don't go and spend some money on Mike Mignon at his age as well if you really believe in either Jorgensen or Sanchez.
So the fact that they could not get Mignon, I don't know why there was no plan B there because...
There are surely other goalkeepers that may be not as good as Mignon, but still better than Sanchez, somebody in between.
They went for nothing and they stayed with Sanchez and Jorgensen.
And now I think there was always a mistake in Sanchez.
Even if I agree with Nadam, he was a little bit better so far this season.
And that's why they wanted another goalkeeper like Mignon last summer.
So I think in the summer, they're going to clearly go again.
Mignon won't be available this time because he's about to extend his contract at AC Milan.
So they would have to find somebody else.
But if you are trying to sign one of the best goalkeepers in the world in the summer and you don't, that is clearly a really bad indication of how much you trust your current goalkeeper.
Albacete was the lowest of the low, really.
And this game, they play Monaco then on Tuesday in the Champions League, at the Bernabeu as well.
So these are the games where, at least in terms of result, because performance, one, we don't know really what to expect from Arbeloa as a coach and how this team is going to play.
basics, Ancelotti, hey, do what you want and let's hope for the best kind of thing, or be more structured like Xavi Alonso, but that didn't work because the players didn't really want it to work.
