Warn that the defense of Real
Madrid He has lost faculties with respect to those he showed during the past year. It is not very complicated. In the review of the last games, the defense of the white team does not get the accounts since they have conceded 14 goals in the last seven games they have played. That is, two goals against per game in the last month.
The reasons for this bleeding in defense are due to several factors, but one of the main ones is the lowering of the level of some members. Not so Courtois, who is still one of the best of the entire squad and who prevents the numbers from being worse.
Varane, unknown
The one that most surprises in terms of individual performance is Raphael
Varane. The Frenchman, a defense more than contrasted and with years of impeccable service to the white rear, is not the same since his fateful night in Manchester three months ago where Real Madrid was eliminated from the Champions after two rude French mistakes.
That night at the Etihad they have been followed by many others and, without Sergio Ramos by his side, he has been overcome and without hierarchy. Same evaluation for Militao. The Brazilian, who arrived in the capital after paying 50 million, has not yet shown the reason for that payment and, every time he plays, he leaves more doubts than certainties. He's fast, big, and heralds potential, but at the moment, he's not showing it off. Neither has Nacho shone in his interventions, always accustomed to complying with guarantees. In his favor, of course, it should be noted that the casualties on the right side have done a lot of damage to the Real
Madrid, which has had to reach Lucas Vázquez to solve a problem that is still there.
Ramos and the market review
The only one who has complied in Ramos. And the truth is that he has done it more in attack than in defense. The captain, who remains unrenewed, is almost the most important asset of the Real
Madrid. Also of its defense to which, if this problem continues to be one of the most serious, it is not ruled out that in the month of January it will be necessary to shore up.
To do this, the name that appears on the table is that of Alaba, who already seems committed to abandoning the Bayern at the end of the season although, with skill in negotiations, he could do it at the beginning of the year for a modest fee. Thus, Madrid is urged to solve a problem, defensive imbalances, which precisely the previous year gave them The league. It's still early but Zidane he knows that if he wants to repeat the title, he cannot keep fitting these harmful figures.
