Personally, I am also surprised by the situation that befell the Real Madrid players, but what is clear is that it is very difficult to research what the cause is, which is why Real Madrid players are hit by so many injuries and if you look at it now, of course there are a lot of Real Madrid players who are injured.  Because currently many players are injured, of course this sometimes makes Real Madrid fans a little nervous.

However, what you say is true because there are many star players at Real Madrid who are of course busy in international matches and also defending their clubs such as in the UCL domestic league and so on. Of course this will create the potential for these players to suffer injuries. but what is certain is that this is the challenge for star players who of course must be able to really maintain their performance, health conditions and so on.

Of course, in this case Ancelotti must really be able to look after the Real Madrid players. and of course this is the first season for Mbappe and Real Madrid have wanted this star player for a long time and indeed, if for example Real Madrid don't become champions in the UCL or in other leagues, of course many Real Madrid fans will be disappointed and of course we'll see what happens next. But of course, no matter what, Real Madrid will still be the favorite team to win the UCL title and others.

Even before mbappes arrival, the expectations where already so high that upon his arrival, some fans want to see trophies already (LOL) of which he actually did, his debut got them a trophy but again they needed to slow down a bit on the expectations because he's human and cannot at the same time meet up with all of that just already, it has to be a whole season long to finally pass a verdict on his entire performance so far or even at least till mid season then we could begin to feel if he's not been awesome or brilliant enough. Thw strike position that was filed with players already before mbappes arrival were mainly substituted strikers who aren't originally strikers but mbappe is a striker naturally and that's the big difference. Currently Madrid isn't got an absolute pattern just yet, but they have got a whole bulk of time to get that fixed.

Last season he also experienced the same condition where there were several important players who were injured so they had to bring in several substitutes. But talking about the form of the game Real Madrid managed to give their best by winning several titles as targeted by Ancelotti. Currently the form of the game that has not been seen is more consistent and I think Ancelotti needs to see the position that is the problem so that he can improve it slowly.

Now their strength is also so complete where the front line is getting better than before but in terms of collective play it has not been seen perfectly. I am sure that slowly Ancelotti will be able to overcome the problem and they will return to their best form and may need time to perfect the problem.

Most of the players in Madrid's squad are in very good fitness. Madrid players suffered very few injuries. But this season Madrid have suffered several key simultaneous injuries. And it was completely unexpected. And I guess Ancelotti was not ready for that at all. And I am worried if Madrid can perform well in their next two matches.

Madrid will play against Real Sociedad in the next match of La Liga. This is an away match for Madrid. And Real Madrid lost points in the first two away matches this season. So the chances of Madrid getting 3 points against Sociedad are slim. However, the Champions League match against Stuttgart is very important for Madrid. Looking forward to see what strategy Ancelotti adopts to win this match. Because several players of the Madrid team will be out of the squad due to injuries in this match. So it will be difficult for Real Madrid to beat Stuttgart.

Well, the bottom line is in your opinion and it really happened. Even though Real Madrid is having difficulties because of the many injured players, it doesn't feel like they are being punished and instead they will fight with fewer numbers. We can't underestimate this considering that this is Real Madrid and it will still be like that as long as the legacy of its predecessors is still attached to the souls of its current successors.

Maybe some teams that will be Real Madrid's opponents feel very advantaged by the many key players who are still injured but if they are careless it will only destroy them. The rest of these teams must maintain their concentration during the match and not make Real Madrid angry when they score first because there will always be a comeback that Los Blancos usually do in every difficult match.

The coach should have anticipated this, because every season there will definitely be a risk where they have to lose players due to injuries experienced by their players and now they are feeling something like this. Real Madrid is inhabited by many young players, in terms of quality I do not doubt them but in terms of experience they cannot be said to be very good. Because in football the ability and quality of a player are not the only factors, but experience will also be an important factor, that's what I think is still lacking from them in the sense that they still have to develop a lot.
Ancelotti's intelligence will be tested again now, because he must be smart in implementing strategies with the remaining players in his squad. He must be able to show that he is very capable of overcoming this problem.

The problem is that Mbappe hasn't arrived at Real Madrid for a long time so he may need some time to adjust himself to Real Madrid. Real Madrid already had quality players in the strike positions, but when Mbappe joined Real Madrid, Real Madrid had to make some changes to their attacking line-up. That's why Real Madrid's performance seems a bit random now, but it goes without saying that they will return to normal performance in a short time. The new season of Champions League is probably not started yet and I believe Real Madrid will perform very well when the Champions League matches start.

Madrid's injury list at the start of this season is very long. And almost all players are key players in Madrid's squad. Militao, Bellingham, Mendy, Tchoumeni. Camavinga and Alaba are what we see in Madrid's starting XI. And the ill effects of so many players dealing with injuries will certainly show in Madrid's performance. At the same time, Mbappe has not yet been able to adapt himself well to this squad. So Madrid's overall performance so far has been erratic.

Madrid will face Stuttgart in the first match of the Champions League. This team managed to perform well in the last season. But we haven't seen a better performance from Stuttgart so far this season. They lost points in both matches. This team's defense seems to be weak this season. So even if Madrid's performance is unstable, Madrid has a big chance of winning against Stuttgart.

Initially Carlo Anceloti was not worried about the existing squad because they already had a complete squad but again bad luck was not on the calendar if Carlo Anceloti had the opportunity to recruit many players to fill the void left by these players maybe the coach would have done it from the start but time cannot be turned back and Anceloti forced to accept this, but if you remember last season Real Madrid also felt the same thing at the beginning of the season they experienced a storm of injuries which caused their performance to be unstable but in the end Anceloti was able to handle it we must be able to trust everything to the coach he is a smart coach and knows how to provide a precise strategy.

Before the end of the summer transfer window, Real Madrid manager was asked if he was going to make any surprise signing but on two occasions, the Italian manager said he has complete squad and isn't gonna be making any further addition this summer but just one week after the end of the summer transfer window, but think the injury cases at the club is probably making him regret that decision. The good thing for Real Madrid is they have a very experienced manager in Carlo Ancelotti and I believe he'll be able to manage the team despite the current injury concerns.

It's really pitiable that the list literally have to grow this long for Madrid, this was one of the reasons at some point it did appeared like they had a plan to get a perfect second squad that will be as good as the first because they were trying to make preparations for situations as this to be able to still cope with it and not have issues around situations as this. Even with the large list of injuries last season, Madrid stil was very productive, win the league title, win the champions League and still lost only one game in the la Liga.

Real Madrid actually have the capacity to actually build a squad with multi players for each position and the players will be high class players but the major thing is the breaking of the wage structure set by the FIFA and the other bodies, more so the players in question would also want to play more football and wouldn’t want to sit on the bench all the time so it is not usually possible like that to have an all round star studded squad.

I will say Real Madrid actually gambled when they didn’t sign a new center back before the close of transfer window. They had the young academy graduates who picked up injury right before the season started. Carlo Ancelloti was with the intention of deploying Tchouameni to the role but him and Eder Militao now are out injured which is a scary thing for this Madrid team now. Maybe they could get anyone of them back before then or result back to the academy for a player at that position

Well, I guess we'd have to wait till the UCL competition is in full swing before we can start getting some conclusions. I know that Real Madrid has been the kings of the UCL (I'm a Liverpool fan so I know how many times we have lost to Madrid in the UCL). Hopefully what happened with PSG doesn't get to happen to Madrid otherwise they won't win this time around. The competition is different every year and this season might not be for Real Madrid. It's a good argument though, one I'd love to see how it plays out.

I'm a fan of Madrid because they honour my betslips but we can't deny their current internal struggle.

There are some problems that occur with Madrid's injured players at the moment. But I think Madrid can still do it all very well. Without me explaining again, everyone knows the quality of all the players that Madrid has and the reserve players are still very ready to face the obstacles that exist in the UCL at the moment.
Ancelotti is an experienced coach and he has been with Madrid for a long time. So even though Madrid current situation is experiencing many injured players, I believe the second string players can overcome all matches.

However, what worries me is not about the performance of the attack line but the performance of the defense line.

This injury list is much, and all the players in the list are important to the team because they all have important role to play in these competitions and when they are not around it will be very difficult for the manager to adapt unless if they have good squad depth that they can maybe use their players on the bench to play the roles before these players get better to play.
Before these players will fully recover from injuries, Real Madrid have to suffer it and they will definitely find it difficult to be winning matches, but if the coach is able to maintain the momentum and keep wining their games before they injured players get back, they will be able to perform well, but if they can’t keep it, they will definitely lose some matches in the group stage because their squad is not complete.

Having bad season depends on their preparation, and the management tried their best to keep their former players and they never expect these injuries, but since it has happened they have to work together to get things work before these players will get better. If they have squad depth, they should have no worries.

Or maybe we can just say Mbappe arrived at the wrong time  , I don't know how far  it will affect him this season or maybe it won't because  number one, he's just arriving in a new team and a new league different from the league he has been playing for couple of years, two he still needs to work on his performance, he has not been performing very well that much even before coming to Realmadrid  yet he landed in an injury zone, fans expecting Millions of goals from him... don't really know how he's gonna do it, I wish him goodluck through out the season  .

Maybe it's true that the training process given to their players is heavy enough to make them quickly fatigue and their performance decreases and then injured, in view of the number of injuries it is possible that this is in the training process they do, or some people are given a different and very heavy way of training to improve their abilities.

Calm down guys, it's still early in the season, there's still plenty of time for them to catch up, I think Ancelotti must have found the answer in dealing with this problem, because as far as I know Real Madrid will not go down far despite these circumstances, they just need time to be able to make fans proud of them again.

Unfortunately, this is not surprising - last season was too long for Real Madrid players, considering that modern footballers are already playing at the limit of their capabilities, such abnormal loads make themselves felt. It is clear why Perez wants to assemble almost two squads - for top clubs this is a necessity and not a whim. If we are to be positive, we must remember that last season for Real also started with a large number of injuries, but in the end everything worked out and the season turned out to be excellent.

I have absolutely no clue why Real Madrid keeps getting these injuries, surely there must be something about the training they are doing, but also they have world stars, who all play for international games, so between league games, UCL, cup, club world cup, and then back to league, these players play like 60+ games a season which makes them injury prone and tired and the fatigue makes them injured easier.

Whatever is the reason, they have to find the problem at the root cause and fix it very quickly, because they can't afford to have a bad season. It's their first year with Mbappe, and fans are expecting a lot from them this season, if they fail to get anything, then it is going to be pretty tough to tell fans to calm down and wait for another year.

There's nothing different about this Real Madrid of this season and last season, but how they played have changed truthfully and that all because of Toni Kroos. Has anyone also noticed it this way? They have found it difficult to detect the game so far this season, I don't see them winning the Champions League Competition though it's too early to talk about it. They could be bad during group stage but immediately Real Madrid gets to the knockout stage or the Semi finals, you can already give them the trophy because they'll do all they can to win it.
Last season it was clear honestly. They did great not just in the Champions League Competition alone but also in the La Liga Competition. I will say it again, I don't see them winning the Champions League Competition this season. They'll find it difficult to win this one. I wouldn't mind seeing one of these Italian seasoning sides winning the Champions League Competition though.
