For Real Madrid, although they have only achieved a record of 1 win, 1 draw and 1 loss in the previous 3 consecutive games, Ancelotti's team has regained their ground by relying on the big win in the last round of matches. In La Liga, Real Madrid have won 15 of their 21 matches so far, with a winning percentage of 71.4%, and the remaining 6 games are 4 draws and 2 losses. In the league table, Real Madrid are still in first place with 49 points, and the lead has reached 5 points. However, Real Madrid will have one more game than their competitors. Judging by the situation in the standings, Real Madrid and Sevilla have basically opened up the point gap with other teams, and they will be the strongest contenders for the league title trophy this season.
In terms of player performance, Vinicius continued to play a decisive role in the team after recovering from injury. This season, the young attacker has scored 12 goals in his 20 league games and delivered four assists for his teammates, in excellent form. It is no exaggeration to say that Vinicius has become the best player in the left winger position in europe's top five leagues this season. Judging from the ability to read the game, Vinicius is not at all like a 21-year-old player, whether it is in the choice of offensive timing, in the coordination with teammates, and even in the grasp of scoring opportunities, he has a world-class standard. In the transfer market, Vinicius has reached 100 million euros, the most expensive player in the team. It can be said that Vinicius has become the best signing for Real Madrid in many seasons.
In addition to the outstanding performance of young people like Vinicius, the veterans in the team are still "old and strong". Looking at all the big teams in the five major leagues, there are few team managers who can be as "generous" as Real Madrid manager Ancelotti. Benzema's long peak has made him the best overall striker in La Liga in the past many seasons. This season, the 34-year-old has shown no signs of a slump in form, having scored 17 goals in the league and contributed seven assists. You know, he's played only 20 league games this season. That is, as long as Benzema is on the pitch, he can average more than 1 goal for the team per game. This kind of efficiency may only be comparable to Lewandowski. However, it is well known that Benzema is in a more difficult league than Levan.
In the back line, there is also a young player who has achieved gratifying growth, he is Militang. This season, Militang has made 20 appearances in the league, the most appearances in the team except for Courtois. Judging from his performance on the pitch, Militang has been quite calm in the game, whether it is in frontal defense or when dealing with the opponent's rapid counterattack, he has shown a very high standard. This season, he has averaged 7.01 points per game in the league, and among players who have made more than 5 appearances in the backline, Militang has the highest score. Especially in contrast to his partner Alaba, Militan is not at all behind. However, this group also has a clear disadvantage, that is, insufficient air defense capabilities. On the one hand, it is reflected in the fact that they are somewhat left and right when facing the opponent's high-altitude ball attack; on the other hand, it is reflected in the set-piece attack of their own side, and the team's goal count has dropped significantly. It is reported that Real Madrid are also looking to sign a central defender with excellent header ability to make up for this shortcoming in the back line.
In addition to the above-mentioned outstanding players, there are also some players in the Real Madrid team who did not get enough opportunities in the first half of the season. Take Isco, for example. This season, although Isco has made 9 appearances in the league, he has made seven appearances as a substitute, with a total of only 182 minutes of playing time, and his average playing time is only 20.2 minutes per game. In fact, Isco's departure has been brewing for a long time, but there has been no substantive action. From the current situation, is still unlikely that Isco will leave the team in the winter transfer window, but leaving the team after the end of this season is basically a foregone conclusion. According to Spain's No. 6, Barca, who want to strengthen their midfield position, are interested in signing Isco, and they have even reached a basic agreement with him on his personal treatment. The transfer was also approved by Barca coach Xavi.
In addition, on the Chelsea side, they have also gained certainty in the transfer market. According to transfer expert Romano, Chelsea have signed a talented centre-back from Watford. The 16-year-old young player, Akomea, is very talented. Liverpool and several other teams are interested in Acmea, but Tuchel's side had the last laugh in the transfer. However, Acmea is only the team's reserve for the future after all, and with a number of main centre-backs likely to leave the team at the end of the season, Chelsea also need to sign some higher-level instant players.
