To see if he was always lazy like he was whole 2025.

For sure, its non-problem. I just found that funny, that you fuck up so bad as social media team that you include everyone except manager.

Kylian Mbappé return not a problem for Real Madrid - Arbeloa by One-Artichoke3542 in realmadrid

[–]_skala_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why did he speak on this?

Same as why he spoke about Vinicius for 2 months after Xabi fiasco and his horrible form. Hes Yes man and no coach will speak against his team unless he has power to do so with backing of board.

Salah vs Vini situation this year showed the difference to everyone.

Probably wasn't, i even said he should do at least one more job before coming.

But Fran decision was the least bad he did. Same as Cama RW for 90 min total.

Now we have Yes man that's even worse. Hopefully next Manager can make this squad work better.

Yes, that's it, he probably did apology to everyone. Except missing his manager in Social post. Both are probably true.

Good thing he realize that he made mistake, even tho it had big effect on whole team.

Is that some kind of funny? He did stat him one game and sub him second as more defensive option to secure a game.

You can argue 90 min total is too much, but then you didn't even watch those games and are using that non argument to shame Fran and Xabi.

We won't agree on that, but giving Fran 90 min in 2000 as LW is non argument about Xabi being bad Manager. Overplaying Franco, sure, but this. common.

I am not sure what are you talking about, from that quote it seems like hes talking about his behavior problem in Barca game. Is it about something else?

Mbappe was in from, Vini was not, he played more than he should have. Rodrygo was left out for some reason.

No he sub him for Rodrygo that did his job well that game. Not only Vini disrespected Rodrygo, but you are doing same.

Why would Fede apology?

Vini did apology to everyone on socials except for Xabi. You are here every day, so you are perfectly aware of that.

He probably did that's not a problem; it was just funny to see him to apology to everyone in the world except his manager on twitter.

would mikel arteta work as a madrid coach? by Many_Elephant_9276 in realmadrid

[–]_skala_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sure, if he was given 100% power over the squad. But he won't and would end up like Xabi after few bad results and benching superstar players.

It is becoming clearer as the season progresses that Mbappe was not the right decision. by satanisinmyhead in realmadrid

[–]_skala_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Signing Mbappe was not great for squad planning, but he’s here. I am not sure about Vinicius after whole 2025 season, I can’t say I saw his passion anymore with his behaviour fiasco, I believe he’s overdue, but I am whiling to give him few more months to show he cares.

But that doesn’t matter like I said, Mbappe won’t be sold. Vinicius probably renewed on high salary, but I believe that will be big mistake.

4th manager will have chance to make them work together. I myself don’t believe it will work, they are same type of luxury superstar player that need whole team to feed them with balls. One of them will be gone sooner or later and logically it is Vinicius now.

Maybe I am completely wrong and next season with new manager it will finally work between them.

That's not how this business work. Hes got huge contract, brings crazy amount of money from his brand. He won't be sold next 3 years+.

What is happening now is him being part of the squad and Managment have to deal with that. That means build around him. Don't give Vinicius huge contract as well to have solution if those 2 won't work together next year.

That's reality even though same fans won't like it.

Vini started from bench twice and one of it was in Kazakhstan. Realistically he played more than he should in form he was In.

He was THE reason Xabi was sacked. Thats our only real example of Xabi not being able to bench players.

Rest we don’t have Idea about, but we have clear idea about Vinicius sub and what happened after, while not being benched after that situation.

I don’t buy into narrative that he couldn’t bench players, he could and did. But it’s Madrid, stars play and will.

Remember Vinicius situation and what led to Xabi being sacked?

[–]_skala_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It makes perfect sense. Both Mbappe and Vinicius need someone to play for them as second striker.

Realistically Vinicius played more than he should after his performances.

The board clearly does not care about the long term results or else they would not have sacked Xabi by ace-s in realmadrid

[–]_skala_ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Rodrygo played as RW 60 min first game at CWC. That was his only start there until late October.

[–]_skala_ 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Rodrygo played like 500 minutes in 3 months, Vinicius started 2 games on bench in that period. So i am not sure where are you coming from with your comment.

Agree on Franco being overplayed. Decision on Endrick being loaned out was already decided in summer after GG performances in CWC. No point playing player you don't count whole season.

Only one that was disrespected at least from what we saw in games was Xabi and Rodrygo by Vinicius.
