'State of emergency' declared at Real Madrid – Tension high for Carlo Ancelotti in 'difficult outfit'

A week ago, then Real Madrid had lost at Anfield to Liverpool, well-connected club legend Predrag Mijatovic said Carlo Ancelotti had lost the dressing room. This week a “state of emergency” was declared at the White House.

Another defeat at Athletic Club ended any talk of recovery in La Liga after three consecutive wins, and once again the finger is pointed. Carlo Ancelotti. According to ReliefAncelotti is in the crosshairs at Real Madrid again, unable to put together a strong identity, a solid plan without the ball, or motivate a great reaction from his players.

The lack of meritocracy, with players who are given starts based on reputation, their late decisions on substitutions, and their lack of trust in young players are some of the problems that are returning to squeeze in the room advice That was in evidence in Bilbao, as Arda Guler and Endrick Felipe were sent off with just minutes to try to sort things out. Ancelotti continues to go for a cautious approach even in the big games, waiting for chances and trying to minimize mistakes, which did not work.

Although the young players did not have chances, it is not as if their star players did well, a problem headed by Kylian Mbappe. There are Girona and Atalanta, Rayo Vallecano, the final of the Club World Cup and Sevilla, from which the club expects five victories before the end of the year.

The Italian manager and his staff are working in a situation of “maximum tension”, with a “difficult dressing room to manage”. The report ends by saying that it will be difficult for Ancelotti to turn things around at this point.

Ancelotti dismissed the idea that the dressing room was not as healthy as last season several weeks ago, but there is no doubt that there seems to be less spirit in this Madrid team. It is of course a consequence of the results in part, but the departures of Joselu Mato, Nacho Fernandez and Toni Kroos also have a role.
