It seems unlikely that the rumors about Real Madrid pursuing Florian Wirtz are true. Wirtz is an exceptional player that any club would love to have but Real Madrid isn’t short of talent in the attacking midfield. They already have gifted players like Arda Güler, often called the "Turkish Messi," and Brahim Díaz, who can fill similar roles. Rather than adding another attacking midfielder, Madrid might be better off focusing on strengthening their defense this season. If the rumors are accurate and Madrid is genuinely interested in signing Wirtz, they might need to part with one of their current attacking players, such as Brahim Díaz or Arda Güler, to make room for him in the squad.

I would like to agree with your claim about Florian Wirtz been an exceptional talent at the moment. Since his debut in the first team of Bayern Leverkusen last two season I have like his pattern of play and to me he fits perfectly into the midfield of Real Madrid and could also be developed as a winger if needed, I was definitely thinking about him getting linked with Real Madrid. Madrid are a club that love going for top players like this, so seeing him getting linked with them isn’t surprising to me because I knew it is either him or Jamal Musiala that Madrid will be going for.

The Ibrahim and Arda Guler problem is that Madrid do doesn’t see those lads as attacking midfielders even though they played that position in their past clubs, Madrid regards this two as wingers and that’s why you see them suffering for game time even though the midfield lacks creativity. Against Barcelona the Madrid midfield was definitely exposed they lack creativity even though some of the players tried to make it work it didn’t work because it is not their niche or ability. So aside a new striker and a defender

I think if things doesn't get any better, he might be sacked, Florentino Pérez is just like Chelsea former club owner Roman Abramovich here, when things are not really working out he doesn't mind sacking the coach, oftentimes they are the ones who suffer from it. I think Ancelloti needs to sign more players to improve the squad especially the defense, when the transfer windows opens in January, since they are facing more injury woes.


Anceloti made it clear that they don't need more players and he is okay with the players he is having right now which in my opinion he is good to go but I'm not sure if he added injury as a factor before he said that and it's even possible that there were not serious players worthy to be in Real Madrid and that's why he didn't bother sign more players, he wasn't really please with Mbape coming to Real Madrid but I think it was the club decision to bring him.

I'm not saying there is probably another future legend in Real Madrid waiting to take over the job of Anceloti but if Perez mistakenly sack Anceloti, they will suffer 2 loss in Champions League and will suffer another loss of 2 liliga. He is the reason and motivation for having some of the trophy they have today, Perez can think whatever he want but Anceloti is the heart of the players and will remain as long as he want to continue to play and bring trophy home.

I don't think Ancelotti will leave the team. Also, I don't think Real Madrid management will want to send him away unless he wants to go to his team. Because a coach who has also won the Champions League Cup also knows the players very well. Only recently has his squad selection been criticized, but this is normal because the squad they have is very good. When good players play badly, naturally, criticisms are made against Ancelotti about what would have been like if the other good players in the reserves had played.

last season they closed the transfer window by only signing Mbappé. They were criticized for this because they could have made another transfer. But they didn't do it. Maybe they can be criticized for something like Ancelotti. Florentino Perez, I think he would make a mistake if he dismisses coach Carlo Ancelotti from the team. Especially at this stage, dismissing a coach from the team could cause the players to be restless. He has also been playing very well for a few years.

Xabi Alonso to Real Madrid would not be a schooling case to me but I don’t see Ancelotti leaving the club anything from now. He had really done well in the club and his performance as the head coach even this season hasn’t been that bad. Unless they want to just depart on good terms it may sound more reasonable than parting ways due to the performance of the team as a whole. Ancelotti has been doing great for Real Madrid and falling short this season shouldn’t be a more reason to relief him of his duties so soon.

Xabi Alonso will fit in so well at Madrid and with the level of his performance for Leverkusen, he will really adapt quickly with the club but i don't think there is any reason why Real Madrid will consider relieving Ancelotti of his duties at the club for now even if they didn't perform much better in the future again so if he will leave the club, it will be based on peaceful understanding between him and the club. Ancelotti devoted his time for Real Madrid and has won about 12 trophies for Real Madrid which made him the second most successful coach the club has produced after Miguel Muñoz who won 14 trophies for the club, so i see no reason why the club will want to replace Ancelotti without it being on a mutual understanding.

So you are equally saying that carlo ancelotti should play ada guler over Kyler mbape? how bro? How ? it's undeniable that ada guler is a very quality players and nothing is disputing that fact, but playing him over Kyler mbape is actually not an ideal thing to do even though he might be more suited into the team than Kyler mbape.
But by doing that, it's an insult to the personality of mbape, and we should take note that ada guler is an inferior player to Kyler mbape, in quality and in experience wether we like it or not, just that ada guler is more suited to the playing pattern of this present real Madrid team than Kyler mbape.
 
So the deal thing to do is to loan ada guler out for like two seasons, so that he can gain more experience and maturity, by two years time I believe that he would have developed like three to four times better than now, so I believe that he would be in a better place to compete for a place in Madrid team than presently now.


Well, but to tell the truth it wouldn't be an insult if Gler wins his place in his training, Mbappé was fundamental in the game against Barcelona, ​​but if you look closely, who was to blame for not defining very well? Mbappé, he peeled all the balls, he kicked all the goals, so even if it sounds bad, he had a lot of responsibility, so in view of this we have to be clear, those goals that he kicked had a lot of weight, Barcelona built a very good defensive line to make Madrid fall offside, but the game demanded at that moment to change the formation because it was no longer working and that is where Ancelotti failed, Mbappé is very good, but like everyone else, at some point he can play badly and unfortunately it is better to substitute him for someone fresher if he is more accurate.

I saw a statistic today that he missed 230 games in his career due to injuries. He could work as a physiotherapist after he finishes his football career... Smiley When he was healthy he played some great games but I don't think he can play in competitive leagues anymore. The contracts that will be offered to him in Europe will be ridiculous for him. I think the most logical option would be for him to go back to his country...

Let's see how his recovery is, Neymar used to play very well with his skills. but his injury keeps recurring, maybe the doctor should warn him to be more patient before playing again. he doesn't play much for his current team, and moving to his original club is also not a good choice if he will continue to be on the bench or even have to continue to recover. he is very prone to injury at the moment, it is better to focus on recovery until he is really ready to play. he could be detrimental to his new club if he brings him in but doesn't give anything.
The fans want him in the game and want to see him. Watching Neymar should be very enjoyable but I also think they should not rush. Neymar should get better and then take to the field or he may have to retire due to injuries without ever wearing the team's jersey. A football player who made his mark on the world for a while has thus slowly begun to disappear.

Real Madrid is reportedly seriously pursuing Florian Wirtz from Bayer Leverkusen. This is gonna be their fourth attacking midfielder. I can't believe they never learn. Florian Wirtz is good, but, come on Madrid! a new defender is more important than a midfielder at the moment. If they get him, they are doing dirty to Arda and Brahim Diaz who are available.

If Real Madrid gets Wirtz, i believe either of Arda or Brahim would leave the club. Their top priority must be their defensive line. I'm not a fan of this rumor.
While I am certain that they are really interested in the player, that still doesn't make any sense why at all. I mean they have Jude at attacking midfield, so having Wirtz at the same place is moronic and I said that before but they are still very interesting, makes absolutely zero sense.

Let's leave that aside, let's say they put Jude a bit behind, to just midfield, then we are talking about so many player so n their squad that already changed positions, and even they have younger kids like Arda and Endrick that are not getting proper time because of how crowded that place is, and yet they are still looking for more? That makes absolutely no sense at all. They should just get right back to the team and be done with it, they have every other position covered, get Trent and be done with it already.

Leverkusen also know they cannot keep Xabi Alonso. So accepting would be a good ending for both parties. Although Ancelotti is still under contract with the club, expectations are always very high at Madrid, and Ancelotti knows that if he lets the team fall short this season, maintaining his position will be difficult. If a change in coach is necessary, Alonso has emerged as a leading candidate for the role.

Yes, if it were me, I would also choose Mbappe, Mbappe is probably more mature and has more leadership qualities. Vinicius is overconfident with his talent, his personality, and his attitude of course that is what directly affected the recent Ballon d'Or when he was not awarded. And this opposing competition between two top strikers is the reason for Madrid's failure in attack.

Vinicius may look over confident with his ability and what he’s showcasing for us, but for someone like him to continue dominating and showing to us that he can do it, then he really can and I won’t say he’s proud of himself or his attitude not appealing. About the Balon d’Or he didn’t win, theirs is more to him not winning it and so we should stop blaming it on his attitude. Ronaldo also has temper and he won it several times in the past. Mbappe is a good player and until they’re able to blend well, they may not get more success in the attacking side.

The idea that Denzel Dumfries is the best player at Inter Milan is questionable. Lautaro Martinez was instrumental in securing their first Serie A title in over a decade. Dumfries is a good player but I don’t consider him the key player of the Inter Milan team. Inter Milan should reconsider offering him a new contract when his current one expires. They could have cashed in on him and shifted their focus toward developing young players from their academy.
I agree that Lautaro Martinez can be considered the best inter Milan player but Denzel Dumfries as done well at inter Milan and he's 28 years, which is still around his prime, why should they sell an instrumental player for the team success.

Even if they want to develop some academy players, these players would have to learn from him, since he's good in his position, he'll have good impact on them. I support him getting a new contract, you don't kill players of such it can be difficult to get another replacement.

Dumfries is definitely a very key player for Inter. And it only makes sense for them to extend his contract for such a long time. That is because I think they are also thinking about selling him for good money when his performance will start to drop because of his age. But right now I think they are more interested in getting the best result out of him. Maybe they are actually thinking that they are going to sell him to the Saudi League. That's why they have prepared such a big contract for him. That is actually going to be great for both parties in my opinion. Let's see what is the actual money that they are going to pay him during that period.
The 28-year-old Dutch right-back is currently one of my favourite right-backs in the world. He is having a very good season at Inter. He is also a full-back who can contribute a lot of goals. It makes sense for Hinter to extend his contract. It is the same for Dumfries. He may want to go to the Saudi Arabian league and earn money, that is normal. Every player wants to earn good money before they retire.

Mbappe arrival at Real Madrid will be a new problem within the team because of his ambition to become the number 1 player in the team, while Vinicius is also eyeing that position. When two typical players like this are on the same team, they will have a hard time working together because they want to show who is the best.
I understand the situation because before Mbappe came, Vinic was a reliable player and was like a star player with extraordinary talent. But do you believe if a team has several quality players and still runs well?
Actually the problem is not with Mbappe and Vinic because both players have different roles. But now let's see how Bellingham fate is?
Bellingham was initially a quality player who scored big last season but after Mbappe came, he seemed more mature and gave in.
And the fact is that Madrid is still running well even though Mbappe and Vinic have not been able to unite their chemistry well.

If I have a choice, I would kick Vinicius and keep Mbappe, Vinicius is a player with zero attitude, he need to learn from this lesson.
It does not guarantee Madrid future to be better when kicking Vinicius from the team. I admit Mbappe has almost the same quality as Vinicius, but the problem is that Vinic has been with Madrid for a long time and can play any role for Madrid victory. While Mbappe has just been with Madrid and we don't know what the future of the team is because he performed well in league 1 without competitive competition from other teams. And regarding Vinicius not having an attitude, it seems that all players will be arrogant when they have good achievements and are with a big team in Europe. That has become a common thing.

I read that Marcelo has had his contract terminated by Fluminense. It's not clear what they talked about, but the media wrote that Marcelo didn't respond well to coach Mano Menezes' instructions when he came on as a substitute. In addition, it seems that there were words that made Menezes angry so he encouraged Marcelo to be replaced by another player. Marcelo now 36 years old, it seems that he is at the end of his career. But I read that he will refocus on continuing to play and is looking for a new team. Maybe he's going to the Arab League?

First of all, no player is bigger than a club even if Marcelo had won everything in europe. He was about to be subbed in but he said the bad words towards the coach, who pushed him back to the bench. Disrespectful by him towards his coach.

It is disgusting to see him act superior to your teammates and staff. He thinks his past with Real and his many trophies make him better, but it's not like that. He should always put respect toward his team mates and team.

The talk about getting another coach I believe is coming from you because you have very little knowledge of who the current manager of Real Madrid is and how good he is in managing talented young players..

I think Carlo Ancelotti is one of the most successful coaches in the history of Real Madrid, so I think he should continue to manage the team. I just believe Arda Güler should leave the team to improve himself.

According to reports (Sky Germany), the prospect of Xabi Alonso joining Real Madrid is very realistic, Leverkusen are also ready to lose the coach who has successfully brought them trophies. Mbappe arrival at Real Madrid will be a new problem within the team because of his ambition to become the number 1 player in the team, while Vinicius is also eyeing that position. When two typical players like this are on the same team, they will have a hard time working together because they want to show who is the best.
Leverkusen know they're a small team and can't fulfill what Xabi Alonso's ask, whether they like it or not, they must release Xabi to Real Madrid.

Yeah, Real Madrid perform better with Rodrygo and Vinicius because Rodrygo don't really mean if he's staying behind Vinicius all the time, he's like Neymar that can't shine due to Messi.

If I have a choice, I would kick Vinicius and keep Mbappe, Vinicius is a player with zero attitude, he need to learn from this lesson.

Leverkusen also know they cannot keep Xabi Alonso. So accepting would be a good ending for both parties. Although Ancelotti is still under contract with the club, expectations are always very high at Madrid, and Ancelotti knows that if he lets the team fall short this season, maintaining his position will be difficult. If a change in coach is necessary, Alonso has emerged as a leading candidate for the role.

And this opposing competition between two top strikers is the reason for Madrid's failure in attack.
Since it has being the dream of Xabi Alonso to coach Real Madrid, he will definitely leave Leverkusen and move ahead to achieve his dreams. Leverkusen will get a new coach and move on with life, because football is business. Must Vini leave Madrid for Mbappe, or must Mbappe leave Madrid for Vini. I don't see this as a problem the way people are talking about it, because two of them can play in Madrid and still do do fine in their different roles. If Vini wants to win Ballon D'or, leaving Madrid will limit his chances of winning it. It is quite unfortunate that Rodri won it, instead of him.

Arsenal are now more interested in bringing Isak to the team, as Newcastle are also interested in Gabriel Jesus. Arsenal still have interest in Kudus because Saudi club Al-Ittihad are interested in Trossard.

It's very clear Mbappe is the problem here and all he can do is shooting on GKs bodies or being trapped by offsides. I would rather keep Joselu than bring in a inconsistent player like Mbappe.
I have also heard Madrid supporters complain about his behavior, of not being interested in helping out defensively. I still think Mbappe is struggling to settle into the team, and unfortunately it is going to cost them this season.

In the future, I expect Vinicius will move to another club, and Mbappe will have his chance to play from the wing like he likes.

I haven’t come across this news and the link in your post does not direct to the exact source. But if the rumour is true, it might be time for Marcelo to consider retiring rather than risking his successful, trophy-laden career ending amid scandals and negative reports. If he chooses to continue playing, I think he could consider moving to the Arab league and focusing on avoiding any further controversies or negative publicity.
Marcelo is a pretty reliable and irreplaceable left-back in Madrid so far, but his attitude towards coach Menezes is certainly unacceptable, from the video footage circulating on the internet, it is clear that at that time Menezes wanted to play Marcelo in the match in the 90th minute, but I think maybe Marcelo was not happy with the decision of the coach who wanted to play him towards the end of the match, so maybe there was a conversation that made Menezes must to back up again Marcelo in the match, I think Marcelo is too arrogant with his star status in Fluminense so maybe he looks too egois and unhappy with the coach's decision at that time, what Menezes did I don't think was the wrong thing because after all the coach has absolute authority for whenever he wants to play a player including Marcelo, I think terminating Marcelo contract is the right step taken by Fluminense because it is better to maintain the stability of the team than to keep an ego star player, Marcelo age still allows him to play in a non-competitive league so maybe the Arab League could be the right choice for him at the moment, Marcelo has a good relationship with Ronaldo besides Al Nassr currently has a weakness in defense so I think recruiting Marcelo will is a great addition to Stefano Pioli squad.
