This season, Real Madrid has bolstered its lineup with the addition of Mbappe, but their performance at the start of the season has not been impressive. In the recently concluded third round of La Liga matches, the team drew 1-1 away against Las Palmas, managing only one win and two draws in the first three rounds, which is a far cry from pre-season expectations.
Several journalists from Marca discussed Real Madrid’s future. Journalist Estrada believes: “Already on the third matchday, Real Madrid still hasn’t found its form. Mbappe has played all the games, yet Real Madrid is still four points behind Barcelona. The team needs a leader, and we have to mention veteran Kroos once again. Real Madrid needs to win, but their current performance is a disaster.”
Another journalist, Miro, stated: “This isn’t about whether Kroos is there or not; there simply isn’t a player in Real Madrid’s squad this season who can step up as a leader.”
Compared to the previous two journalists, Cerrano is full of confidence in Real Madrid: “I think everyone’s expectations are set too high. I still believe that Real Madrid can achieve at least 100 points and score at least 100 goals this year. Last year, they got 95 points because Mbappe hadn’t arrived. With his addition this year, I think the team will push their points total over 100. High expectations have turned into disappointment, and that’s the root of fans’ anger.”
