Ancelotti tried to play boldly with his 4-3-3 formation even without Camavinga and Jude in their attacking midfield but they applied Ceballos who was given more confidence in today's match which made me quite doubtful at first.
However, Mbappe's brace in this match was very good and this is what we have been waiting for from the beginning of this season where Mbappe can score his goals in La Liga. 2 goals is certainly very good although 1 goal was created from a penalty but that does not make him not shine in today's match.
Hopefully this will be a good opening for Mbappe and his productivity does not decline after 2 goals in this match because indeed next week there is still a tough match against Sociedad which we know that they are also not an arbitrary club especially they are still one of the dark horses so far.
I was also aware about that. Ancellotti still tries to stick with 4-3-3, but I still think there’s a missing link between blocks, and having Jude to comeback will probably solve it. But since he out for months, then Ceballos used as their subs in today's game. It's working quite well.However, Mbappe's brace in this match was very good and this is what we have been waiting for from the beginning of this season where Mbappe can score his goals in La Liga. 2 goals is certainly very good although 1 goal was created from a penalty but that does not make him not shine in today's match.

But there is a factor why it's working quite well. This was caused by Betis played a very wide game. It kinda different if we played against a low block team, and i think the pressure to our mind gonna be bigger.
And overall, I think that Madrid has improved, but not that much.
What Madrid need now is to continue to perform better in terms of attack especially for their goal productivity because if Madrid can improve on that then we will see them in a different way with consistency .
Real Madrid miss Bellingham badly at the moment. Had Bellingham been with the squad, perhaps Madrid's performance would have been more stable. But very soon Ancelotti is going to get Bellingham with his squad. And that's exactly what Ancelotti should be preparing for in advance. Since Ancelotti has already changed his match strategy, coach Ancelotti will have to keep a close eye on Bellingham to have no problem adapting to this strategy. But if Bellingham has trouble adapting to this strategy, then Madrid's performance is likely to be unstable again.
Bellingham also needs to change his style of play. And Mbappe in particular has to build a good relationship. Madrid's overall performance will depend on Vini, Mbappe and Bellingham. Looking forward to see how this trio performs this season.
He was performing way better you know. If you have a better performer then you should give them more chances. Alvarez has played horrible since he signed for Atletico Madrid. It seems like he has some serious adaptation problems.
Because we have a much stronger Barcelona this season. Hansi Flick has really made a big difference so far. I'm looking forward to watching their performance in bigger games.
