Madrid Keeps Floating High As Benzema Turns Spanish gOD.
Yo Sport lovers!
I happen to be one of those who believed Spanish league would be more of a trash after Messi's departure but then, I think it's even getting quite interesting there these days.
Although Messi's departure is currently and really affecting Barcelona as they are still struggling to have a good stand both in the league and in the UCL but on the other hand, it's been a swift and sweet journey for Real Madrid as they currently sit on top of the LaLiga Table.
Sincerely, with the nature of transfers Madrid got themselves into this season, I had this strong belief that they were going to have it so tight and dirty this season. Letting go of Sergio Ramos and Raphael Varane at the same time seems to football viewers and lovers like myself that Real Madrid would be in a huge soup this season but I guess we all forget who the new Manager is!
Ancelotti is a manager that knows how to fish out the best out of his players and the major way he does this is by creating even more competitions within his team. With Zidane as Real Madrid's manager, he did just so well but then it was quite easier to predict what Zidane's first eleven would always look like because he was a manager with much favorites and he plays his favorites too often unlike Ancelotti who pushes all available players to play at their best abilities because anyone can always surface in his first eleven.
Some months ago, I concluded that Madrid would only make merry this season if the likes of Bale and Hazard could pick up good form but so far so good, these two players haven't contributed much this season while the massive contributions has been coming from the unexpected.
I had forgotten the iota of the quality in the likes of Isco and Asensio due to the fact that they lacked playing time under Zidane, so it made it appear like they weren't valuable players anymore but they've been so impressive this season.
What would you call this season's Vinicius?
Right from the onset, I had been a huge fan of Vinicius due to his skills and pace but I never really placed much value on him knowing that he isn't a good finisher but I've got to learn something this season that with time and the right training any player can always get better.
Vinicius who doesn't knew much about goal scoring has finally turned a goal monger for Real Madrid and that's just a great development for both the team and Vinicius himself. He's graduating buying himself a long time trust in Madrid and that's going to take his football career a long way.
Benzema has the current king has scored eight league goal alongside seven assists. Vinicius as the golden boy has also score five league goal alongside two massive assists. These are players I least expected to perform well this season but the have started well already. Benzema is playing his role as a striker and as a Captain so well at the moment but then my prediction could still be right. Real Madrid could end up wining the league title this season at the mercy of Bale or Hazard or the both of them. It's football and expectations and predictions counts!
Madrid's recent massive win against Mallorca and Celta Vigo were what made me feel they could actually triumph this season. Modric is getting old and also likely to suffer much injuries this season but it's certain Madrid would be fine with Golden boy Camavinga who had scored his first goal for Real Madrid already.
Real Madrid added just few qualities to their team this season but Ancelotti has successfully woken up much qualities in the team's depth which is the best team any manager can offer a team like Real Madrid.
I am convinced that Madrid do have something to prove this season but then I am just waiting just one thing and that would be Real Madrid taking at least three points away from Atletico Madrid. That's definitely the only team strong enough to make Madrid cry this season but if Madrid could afford to achieve at least a win against them in the league this season, it would very much help them to seal up a lot on the race to claiming the trophy this season!
