on the bright side we only lost by one point (progress) and were still a threat to atletico with one player missing when the right midfield composition appeared. this loss can either make or break us. and if we lose laliga there is still la supercopa and la copa del rey to win 🤔
@mickaelson__ progress the ball and create chances while being 3-teamed and 10 man down? you see that he is doing more defensive efforts so ofc there are other part of his game that is gonna drop and he’ll need to adjust ffs 😭😭😭
@mickaelson__ i’m not lowering his standards or babying him? genuinely what do you expect him to do with a shit midfield and no one that can cover his space when he tries to progress the ball? ofc he has showed amazing levels before but you TRULY expect him to press, score,
also this “mbappé dropping deeper means no one in the box” gimmick needs to genuinely stop. we have 11 players for a reason, i’m sure at least ONE of them can get there if mbappé is out of position 😂
inter milan was a big game until he scored, elche away was our “first big test” until he scored and assisted. his mentality hasn’t changed, he can’t do anything if the ball doesn’t get to him and if he’s 3-teamed everytime he gets the ball. this is a stupid narrative
i honestly don’t know what’s happening to him. this guy is supposed to be the symbol of what it means to perform in big games.
now he’s just... spinning his head around, looking lost. it’s almost like whenever a game gets intense lately, he just goes completely cold.
is it the cultural mess around real madrid getting into his head? does he feel like nothing is actually helping, so he’s just given up?
i don’t wanna question his mentality, but recently, when it comes to big games, he just becomes too cold. like he doesn’t even seem to understand what’s at stake.
