The absence of these players will have an impact on their performance, If am not mistaken, I do not think Real Madrid ever played a game last season without Tchouméni and Camavinga, as both contributed to strengthening the defensive midfield. Both players will miss the Champions League game. A big team cannot win a game without great players. However, there is positive news for the team, Bellingham and Militao are training with the squad. I hope Camavinga, Tchouméni, and Mendy return soon, I do not want Real Madrid to be eliminated from the Champions League since, without the name, the competition becomes less interesting.
We cannot write Real Madrid off this season, I believe that you view Manchester City as the favorite team to win the Champions League because of the opponents they dominated this season. If Real Madrid defeated their league opponents in the same way that Manchester City did, I believe people would still consider them the favorite team. However, Manchester City were consistent in their games throughout all competitions last season, but they were unlucky to be eliminated in the Champions League by Real Madrid. You are right, Guardiola cannot rely on Haaland as a striker this season because his injury will have an impact on the team performance. Guardiola sold Alvarez to Atletico Madrid and has no striker to replace him, so he must get another top striker because no one can tell whether Haaland will be injured this season or not.
