This has to show you how badly the team is playing now. There has been crisis at the club, and the one everyone know is their financial challenges. But they can't continue to struggle to get results. I wasn't expecting them to conced that number of goal against Almeria. They have to bring in some defenders to boast their defense in the January transfer window if they are to far in the Champions league or even make top 4 this season
It will also be quite difficult for Barcelona to get talented new players if Barcelona is still experiencing problems with their own finances. Because in the transfer market there will definitely be many teams who want to be a part of buying the best players so the competition may only be in the finances of each team itself. Barcelona still has to fight with the players they currently have, hoping for more wins and being able to beat Atletico Madrid, which is still often an obstacle for Barcelona in the top four of La Liga.
Barcelona is big team and of course they have enough finances if only to be able to bring in several players in the next transfer window, and if you say that Barcelona defense does look less competitive.
By bringing in one or two defenders, it might really help and change their performance in each match, making them stronger in defense, which makes it difficult for opponents to break through their defense.
After all, Barcelona has qualified for the round of 16 and the strength of the defense line is also very important, not only improving the attack line, Xavi must think about how the squad he is training can be truly perfect on every side.
For La Liga itself, Barcelona actually doesn't seem to have good performance and of course they will be increasingly overwhelmed in fighting for the title because you can see that Girona is increasingly improving the quality of their game.
The pressure will always be there if Xavi does not immediately take firm action in changing the line-up and take the right steps in the future to improve the performance of all the line-ups he already has.
Well, in reality I don't see a problem in Baarcenola's squad, I don't even see a problem in their defense but the same phenomenon is happening here that happens in Manchester United of the PL, where basically the one who is to blame for a team being like this is the same Coach, of course I don't think that Barcelona will fall into the same mistake as the MU that they never remove the Coach, here the bears are different and unlike the MU the bad Barcelona have a good position in the classification but even so things are not right for them The team is doing well as they are used to, for that reason I consider this guy to have to make a change and not of the players, however there is still a lot of League left to do and the opportunities are there and can make a difference so things cannot go wrong completely, that's why I think that when it comes to doing better, things can make a difference if you try to at least change the strategy, and what Xaavi has set up, well, make it different, something like that to try.
Of course, when we look at it, this may seem difficult, but not impossible, but it is obvious that it took a lot of work to beat Almería, which is last in the table, because things are not as good as many people think, so in This order of ideas can be favorable for them to change for the better, I would ask if as a good fan one can say that things in Barcelona can improve noticeably, as long as I don't get chips, but to say that the rpoeblma is buying more players, the team is going to be decapitalized and they are not going to achieve anything, we have to change the strategy, they have all the material, or is it because of the material that they are doing it wrong, it is because of the same strategy that is failing a lot, that is what I I consider, I take my opinion seriously, because I want this team to be competitive like Madrid and Barcelona because I want Madrid to win, but Madridgnae will also have better players with everything at their best, so that later they don't Say that they won because of the team's bad mood or all those excuses that at least Xavi invents lol.
I guess this is what most clubs are missing especially Chelsea it's always easy for the coach to shift the blame to the fact that there are no new signings even if they won title with same squad and we saw the outcome for Tuchel after that in Chelsea and still yet Chelsea continued to hold strongly to that idea but Barcelona is quite different they don't necessarily need new defenders though they may need a striker but this is not also a priority in a nutshell, all they need is to get their goal scoring rhyme back it doesn't matters who score what matters is that they win. Ancellotti is somehow the best coach in the world now let be sincere he has opportunity to recruit players but still continue with the squad he has and he has been doing excellently well with them while even making his players getting better.
I can't deny it, what you said, but the great James Bond (I say it that way because one day he arrived in a helicopter for training, and everyone started calling him the James Bond of Madrid) lol, well he has his methods, it's clear that Yes, he is the best coach in the world, and it is a shame that he is going to leave after this season, even for his departure because I don't know who will come, I hope a Zidane, and the truth is that I would like a Xabi Alonso, I like what he He is doing in the Bundleisga, he has taken Leverkusen to the top and that is something that we have to recognize that it is not easy to give up, that's why I like what he is doing, personally I prefer someone else to come and not him oi Well, there is no chance that Ancelotti himself will stay, the great Florentino Pérez is capable of doing it, although I think he is more interested in the Super League and what he is achieving is something very important, in this order of ideas I see that Madrid always does things very well, with this or another coach things are like that for Madrid.
oh He is really leaving always find it hard in accepting the fact that he will leave soon, Zidane and Xabi Alonso are top most priority but it will really be hard to get Xabi especially if He wins the Bundesliga but I guess if he do express his desire to coach the Madrid team then we know not will stop Perez from bringing him home.
Regarding the players, for me they are the ones who should be there, I would like Haaland to be in the ranks of Madrid, 'because I would take him to the top all the time, of course it would be a great career for the Viking because there he can rise to fame much more, and I think that Pep Guardiola does not want to do it nor does he care how great he is, because the opportunity he had in a match to score more goals than Messi, he took it out, which seemed strange and very badly done by this Pep, then through the lens the preference he has towards the Argentinian from many years ago was noticed when he coached Barcelona and imposed the tiki taka , in fact I would have liked to see an Ancelotti play in Madrid against a Pep Guardiola in Barcelona , to see how they could have used all their love to be the best, is something that intrigues me a lot, and is quite curious.
Julian Alvarez responds to rumours on Man City future amid Real Madrid transfer interest
Julian Alvarez insists he is 'very happy' at Manchester City despite reports linking him with a move to Real Madrid.
The World Champion for both club and country scored twice in City's Club World Cup final win over Fluminense on Friday, as well as adding an assist. Despite playing most of City's games this season, he only plays in his natural position as striker when Erling Haaland is not available or rested.
Alvarez has attracted interest from other clubs and has been linked with a transfer. Real Madrid have been mentioned as a potential destination for the 23-year-old. However, after the Club World Cup final, Alvarez expressed his happiness at City and his intention to keep winning trophies at the Etihad.
"The truth is that I am very happy at Manchester City," he said. "I have been at the club for a little more than a year. I feel very happy with everything we have achieved."

This is not Madrid style of play as a striker in Real Madrid you need to be trustworthy of getting something done especially in dying minutes and this strait is found in the entire Madrid squad. Alvarez is actually a better player comparably to Haaland and He will do much better in Madrid but the best option for them is still Mbappe, if they can get Mbappe Real Madrid will dominate all once again even if they are doing just that now
