The only problem for Sir Ancelotti is to arrange the players he has on the pitch well and make them play well. He has some extraordinary players and just as many others have arrived like Mbappe. He has a replacement for another 10 years so he can stay calm and play the football he knows how to do. to win
The bad luck due to the increasing number of player injuries has made it difficult for Ancelotti to formulate a strategy with the players he has. If this condition continues, it will be difficult for Real Madrid to maintain its best performance. The disparity in quality between key players and reserve players can affect the balance of the team, Mbappe presence has also not had a positive impact on Real Madrid front line, he has only been able to score two goals since defending Real Madrid. Ancelotti must be able to keep his team's performance on the best track even though he currently cannot play several key players. If he can manage the team well in difficult times like this, it will be very difficult to match the strength of Real Madrid when the key players can play again.

Losing Bellingham is a strong blow for Madrid at the moment because he does have the ability to play in different positions while in the squad, but we also cannot deny that the arrival of Mbappe has at least filled the hole that Bellingham has left in the front line, so that currently Ancelotti just need to find the right formula to overcome the problems in the midfield, 

Bellingham injury will certainly have a little setback to the real Madrid team because he handles a very crucial area for the club which is midfield and I don't think there is anyone who can handle it more than the way he does because his performance reduces the workload of there defense line since there defense are not that strong, actually with what is happening now on real Madrid is very good they were able to signed Mbappe because a situation like this players like Mbappe and some others will certainly no how they can remedy the challenges they feel they are having.

The little problem they will have just as you said is there midfield because Bellingham plays a vital role on that area, so is left for there coach to develop and use the right strategy to cover up until Bellingham returns from the injury because he may be recovering much quicker than we anticipated.

The number of competitions that Madrid has to play certainly forces them to be able to rotate players well, as a big team and handled by experienced coach, of course they don't want to lose a single trophy from the competition they participate in ,so I think all competitions will certainly be played seriously and not just La Liga and the Champions League, see the number of injured players at the moment, Madrid journey may be a little difficult, but that doesn't mean they won't focus on all of these competitions, because we know how Madrid and Ancelotti have had great ambitions to win every trophy so far.



Real Madrid must be able to play with many competitions and of course Ancelotti must be able to make his team's performance even better. Indeed, Ancelotti is always ambitious to win in all competitions and of course this is a natural thing because of course everyone also wants to win in all competition, but of course in this case Ancelotti is very lucky because he has good subordinates and many star players, who of course have great potential to achieve success and champion title in all competitions.

Indeed, currently many Real Madrid players are injured, but of course Real Madrid still has Mbappe, Vinicius and others who of course have great potential to make Real Madrid win. but of course it cannot be denied that if there were no injured Real Madrid players, of course Real Madrid's strength would be even better. But of course Real Madrid will definitely fight with the maximum in all competitions and it would definitely be a shame if Real Madrid failed to win many trophies.

but in my opinion what is most regrettable is Bellingham's injury because in my opinion if Bellingham is not injured it will certainly make it easier for Ancelotti to manage his technique but I see Real Madrid's 1st and 2nd tier players are certainly extraordinary but it is definitely not easy for Real Madrid in a competition to win but of course victory can definitely be achieved even with great difficulty.but I hope that Bellingham can recover quickly from his injury and can play later in the UCL against VfB
I think now it's not just Madrid that is currently experiencing bad luck due to a storm of player injuries, but most of the teams that send their players to the national team to play in the UEFA National League and World Cup qualifiers are experiencing the same thing, in fact I think the conditions faced by Madrid It's no worse than what Arsenal and other teams face that don't have good squad depth so far, Madrid is a team that has good squad depth and of course they will still be able to compete in the Champions League this season by rotating injured players. Apart from that, some Injured players are now starting to recover and are ready to return to play.

Losing Bellingham is a strong blow for Madrid at the moment because he does have the ability to play in different positions while in the squad, but we also cannot deny that the arrival of Mbappe has at least filled the hole that Bellingham has left in the front line, so that currently Ancelotti just need to find the right formula to overcome the problems in the midfield,  to be honest, at the moment I'm not worried about Madrid front line, but my concern lies in their defense which I think is very weak at the moment.
I agree, the number of injuries occurring at top football clubs is not unique to Real Madrid. These injuries not only impact the club's domestic competitions but also international competitions like the UEFA National League and the World Cup qualifiers. The loss of Bellingham, in particular, is significant as he is a versatile player who can cover multiple positions. It is fortunate that Mbappe has been able to partially fill that void left by Bellingham. However, you are correct in pointing out that Madrid's primary concern should be their defense, which currently appears to be a weakness. Despite these challenges, the depth of Real Madrid's squad provides some reassurances, coupled with the return of injured players. It will be interesting to see how Ancelotti chooses to handle these issues in upcoming matches.

I do not think Real Madrid will have easy time in Champions League with their current team. They have history of doing well in tournament but last year they got lucky because of mistakes made by other teams. They also won some games at very last minute. Other teams like Bayern Munich could have won if they made different decisions. This means Real Madrid did not just win because they were best but also because of things outside of their control. So I think they will face problems in Champions League with their current team.
I will even say that Bayern could have won if the referees had made different decisions, but that is no longer important. I agree with you that Real Madrid was very lucky in several matches of the Champions League. It is obvious that they have more problems now and this is already reflected in their results in La Liga, I think that in the Champions League they will be even more obvious because the opponents there are also stronger. But perhaps this will be more obvious at later stages of the tournament.
But the Champions League has not started yet so no matter how doubtful about Real Madrid this season is, it is no different from last season when many people doubted Madrid after Benzema left. However, everything is not just about luck, but mentality also plays a role on the field and that makes Madrid different from the strongest teams. In my opinion, performance in the Domestic League cannot be 100% used as a reference for the performance of any team if it is already in the Champions League. I don't need to mention one by one because we have often seen bad teams in the Domestic League but are able to show good performance in the Champions League.

The first match of 8 matches that Madrid will play host Stuttgart. And what you need to know is where is Stuttgart position in the Bundesliga? It doesn't mean that in the match against Madrid they have to play badly, right?
That's why the Champions League is unpredictable and has nothing to do with the team's performance in domestic competitions. Different competitions with different levels of competition will give rise to different motivations.

Don't get me wrong, I've made comparisons like that in the past without even realizing it. Grin

I personally will not always be fixated only on Ancelotti who managed to get five Champions League trophies because after all, Ancelotti also only succeeded when he was the manager of top teams like Real Madrid and Milan. But, when Ancelotti became the manager of other middle teams and some were also still top teams in different leagues, but in reality Ancelotti did not even succeed in improving the quality of the team in other teams in different leagues. Therefore, I think whether Real Madrid will succeed or not in the Champions League this season, it still seems to prioritize team performance first and cannot rely on just a few parties or players.

But indeed, when it comes to the Champions League and Real Madrid it is like something that is difficult to separate. Because after all, even though Real Madrid did not have good results in the domestic league but in fact, Real Madrid always managed to get good results in the Champions League and even, managed to get the trophy too. But I think this season might be more difficult,  because with the implementation of the new format then of course it will make teams like Real Madrid also get different challenges, so there is still no guarantee for Real Madrid to succeed this season.

Competition with other teams will certainly be increasingly tight. other teams must also have great ambitions to beat Madrid or even win the trophy. Madrid also faces tough opponents such as Milan, Dortmund, and Liverpool. there are 8 matches in the first round that I think will not be too difficult for Madrid.

The opening match of the Champions League will begin soon. can't wait to see how the favored teams perform in the new format of this competition. I still favor Madrid in the Champions League. despite their declining performance in La Liga.
Indeed, we cannot rely on one person or a few players. Madrid has good quality players, and many options that Ancelotti can choose from.

Among the players mentioned in this list, 6 players are very important players for Madrid's squad. And these are the players we see in Madrid's starting XI. With half of the players in the starting XI facing injuries, Madrid's performance will naturally be somewhat unstable. There is no doubt that Ancelotti is an experienced coach. But since so many important players of the squad are not with the squad, we don't know how Madrid will perform in the next three matches.

Madrid will play against Real Sociedad, Stuttgart and Espanyol in their next three matches. Madrid needed the likes of Bellingham, Tchouameni and Camavinga in matches against Sociedad and Stuttgart. Without these three key midfielders it will be difficult to keep the squad stable and win these two matches. I am looking forward to see how Ancelotti takes the strategy in the next two matches. Ancelotti and Madrid are understandably very popular at the moment.

As a leading team, it's crucial for Real Madrid to have a strong rotation of players. This is especially important given the number of competitions they're involved in. With an experienced coach like Ancelotti at the helm, they'll be aiming to seize every trophy. Despite facing some challenging circumstances, including multiple player injuries, the team's focus will not waver.

Six of the injured players are key pieces in Madrid's starting XI. With half of the regular starters struggling with injury, the team's stability could be affected. Men like Bellingham, Tchouameni, and Camavinga would be particularly missed in their upcoming matches against Real Sociedad and Stuttgart. It will be worth watching Ancelotti's tactical approach in these games.

It's a tense time for Madrid, but the team's ambitions remain high. Their status as one of the top clubs in the world is undisputed, but navigating the next few matches may prove challenging.

As I see, Real Madrid is one of the strongest European teams in the Spanish league. Real Madrid is not easy to get their big titles such as LA LIGA, UFA and also LIGA Campion.
The team that was formed by Zidane has now become the king of Europe over and over again, it cannot be said that this year's Teal Madrid squad is more dangerous than last year when they won the championship, let's see which teams will enter the European semi-finals, is there Real Madrid? Among the 4 big teams, Mbappe will be the key to winning as the most agile striker who is feared by other teams.

Well I don't think so IMO, Madrid has been qualifying to play in UCL for so many years ,they played with alot of teams so that strategy thing is out for me....they wouldn't have made it through to last year's final if not for some overlooked mistakes by opponent  and this is mostly die minute win though Madrid has a strategy of playing fast pressing games in their last minutes but I think those stuffs that happened last year won't repeat itself especially  Bayern, Bayern could have reached the finals if not for the last minute subs . Thus saying Realmadrid won't have difficulty issue in UCL with their current squad  doesn't seem right to me.

Somehow I don't agree with your opinion about Real Madrid, as if saying that Real Madrid was lucky because their opponent made a mistake even though this club is the number 1 club in the Champions League so Real Madrid's success in winning the title last season was not just luck but thanks to Carlo Anceloti's intelligence in creating a strategy he put Juselu in the final minutes and finally this player was able to break through Bayern Munich's defense and win the semifinal match and finally advance to the final so we can't say it was just luck because Real Madrid is still a strong candidate in the Champions League.

Competing in the Champions League is not easy but I still believe in Real Madrid's ability with the current squad. I don't underestimate other clubs. Bayern or Man City also have the same chance because they are also strong candidates in the UCL.

You can call it luck, fortune or mistakes, it doesn't matter. this is how they've been playing all those years and they have won 15 Champions League playing like that. There is never a big game in Europe where Madrid completely dominates the game. They can look lost the whole game and still win. It's because they know how to win. What you call luck can be said to be their strategy. Something cannot be called luck if it happens year after year.

What they do is simple, make sure you don't create many chances and even if you create, they make sure they defend well so you don't score, then they make sure they score their own chances.
Against Bayern Munich last season, Bayern had the chance to bury the game in the first leg and second leg but they didn't take and they were knocked out.
Same thing against City. Madrid pressed and scored 3 goals in the Etihad Stadium, went to Spain and made sure to avoid defeat and take the game to penalties.

See how the bookies continue to favor Real Madrid as champions this season, every generation of Madrid players is never lacking they always have young players whose talents are quite high and this is what Real Madrid has.

Real is a favourite when it comes to outright of winning La Liga, with odds of x1.50, which seems a bit odd, as it's Barcelona who are in the lead, with 4 points advantage over Real, and with amazing 13 goals in 4 matches scored so far.
But when it comes to the Champions League outright odds, Man City is the favourite with odds at x3.5 and Real is 2nd with odds of x4.5. I have a feeling we might have a few surprises this year and none of these two will make it to the UCL final.

The most difficult games for Madrid in my opinion will be the La liga games. The champions league games seem to be something they know how to deal with because teams from other countries don't really know how to play Madrid, but La liga teams have understood them and will give them more difficulty.
Real Sociedad is going to be a difficult game because aside from the injuries, more Madrid players were on international duties than Sociedad players so that gives them a little advantage too.

The player injuries experienced by Real Madrid at this time could indeed be an obstacle for Real Madrid to perform well in every match, but I also believe in the level of consistency of the current Real Madrid team. Because Real Madrid's mentality in the Champions League is always very big and Ancelotti himself certainly knows what to do and give his best for the team with the current conditions even though one of them is having to be smart enough in rotating players when the match schedule looks quite close for several competitions.
This is still early and the opportunity is still very large, the current obstacle is not a big problem, some players are indeed in treatment due to injury, but that will not be long in my opinion because no one has a serious injury that requires a lot of time to recover.

Calm down our friend will see Real Madrid back to its track, this is just a challenge for the start of the season for them and I strongly believe their mentality and abilities can be relied on especially if the team's strength works entirely very likely to take a lot of trophies this season.
Eight Real Madrid players are currently injured. Bellingham is likely to be available sooner, followed by Dani Ceballos. It is true, for now Ancelotti has not felt a significant negative impact, which made them lose. However, in the future after the international break, the situation is quite worrying, where the Champions League campaign will soon roll. Four of the 8 players are defenders, although we all acknowledge Ancelotti managerial greatness, losing them certainly makes him feel dizzy. Of course it is true, gradually Real Madrid will definitely return to performing on fire. Currently everyone is curious and wants to see how strong Los Blancos are in full formation, which I think Ancelotti is also curious about the ammunition he has.

Champions League matches are always different, every club will try to impress because it's the most prestigious competition, while for LaLiga it's important but they can catch up when they're behind. I believe Real Madrid can get back on level terms later in LaLiga.

I've never doubted Real Madrid in the Champions League and it's true that they have a winning mentality that other clubs don't have, the players carry a bit more ambition in UCL matches even when last season they were a goal down to Bayern Munich but Real Madrid could turn it around to win.
La Liga is also important, but you are right, with so many games to play, they can catch up and they have proven that in previous seasons.
Talking about UCL, as I recall, when the trio of Ronaldo, Benzema and Bale were still playing for Real Madrid, they were behind on aggregate in UCL several times in the last few seasons when it was still using the old format, but Real Madrid were always able to turn things around and advance to the next round, there were many crucial moments shown there. This proves that Real Madrid's mentality is beyond doubt, another thing is that if Real Madrid reaches the final, they never lose. "The UCL trophy as if to be made only for Los Blancos", although the words I wrote are exaggerated, but I feel that, is there anyone here who feels the same way?
See how the bookies continue to favor Real Madrid as champions this season, every generation of Madrid players is never lacking they always have young players whose talents are quite high and this is what Real Madrid has.

Trophies are made to look like they are for Real Madrid? Obviously you see how Real Madrid has 15 trophies while other teams are still far from surpassing it, and we know that every season Real Madrid never subsides in the title race, they are always a challenger and that is what opponents fear the great mentality that the Madrid squad has.

Do you guys think any of the Italian teams could win the UCL this season?
It's about time. It has been 14 years since the last Italian team raised the cup (Inter in the 2009/10 season). It's a bit odd since Serie A is considered one of the strongest leagues in Europe.
We have 5 Italian teams participating: Inter, AC Milan, Juventus, Atalanta and Bologna.
Obviously Inter is rated as the strongest of them all. Still, Atalanta did very well in European competition last season and won the Europa Cup beating undefeated Leverkusen in the final. Maybe they can replicate their success in the UCL, but the start of the league season doesn't spark much optimism, they've lost 2 out of the first 3 games.

The problem of many team casualties can be figured out with the rest of the players on the bench. The main reason i like Ancelotti a lot is because even at this period he knows what to do, although you will still be some shaking in their defense and midfield but that won't stop them from winning games since they have a strong froward to score for them. Hopefully, most of the players on injury will be back before mid-time. Again, I would say that with their current team status, they are not strong enough to face teams like Mnajester City, Barcelona, Bayern PSG or Arsenal in the UCL.
This is exactly when you see a good manager be a good one, because right now he can do very well then it means that he is a great manager. If the whole Real Madrid team is healthy and they are winning games, that's not an achievement, you give me this Real Madrid team and even I would be able to win the league and UCL with them, wouldn't be a big achievement, you can do it too, half of the world can do it. But if he can keep the team going and winning with this many injuries then it would be something that will be great for him, it would show how great Ancelotti is without trouble.

I believe that it is going to be a tough situation but the possibility is out there and it can be done, I hope to see a lot more of this happening. Real Madrid is spending a lot on player salaries, everyone talks about transfer budget, but the salaries they are paying is huge, and they need to keep winning stuff to keep this going, if they fail to win even just a few years, they would suck.
