Xabi Alonso officially kicked off a new era with Trent, Franco Mastantuono and Alvara Carreras making their La Liga debuts.
Rodrygo didn’t come off the bench. There’s no lack of quality in the Brazilians game and it is clear that
Xabi had it in mind that one of the three forwards would be pushed out in order to simply his work. Rodrygo was probably the easier target. With time and Rodrygo’s undeniable talent we will likely see him get more minutes and starts. It’s not worth asking or comparing him to Franco and Brahim.
Kylian Mbappe picked up where he left off last season with an encouraging display. The team held a great shape and suffocated the opponents throughout the game. Real Madrid will be difficult to play against this season.
first game of the season requires 3 points first and foremost. So.. Job done.
The lives of Madridistas are about to change forever. Positional football has arrived and will be harder to watch at times. However, we should be patient enough after so many years to give the manager and the players a chance to try something different.
