Prior to the New Year, they were hailed as the best
attacking force in the world. However, they started a new year on a low and
Real Madrid has since then dropped 11 points in 11 games played. It seems as
though Ancelotti didn’t learn from the previous match against Villarreal which
ended as a draw.
Having started all of Madrid’s game prior to Ronaldo’s two-match
ban for a dirty act against Cordoba, the BBC have been showing signs of fatigue.
There have been boos at the bernabeu towards Gareth Bale due to poor decisions
and erratic performances in the past few weeks who has managed only 3 goals in
14 games in 2015. The last time he scored was on January 24 which was a
penalty. Cristiano Ronaldo has also not been his old self having scored 7 goals
in 12 matches. This goal ratio is highly inferior to his previous heroics in
2014 which saw him claim the 2014 ballon d’or. Benzema too is not of much help
having registered 5 goals in 14 matches.
Ancelotti has refused to rotate the
teams which is causing more harm than good for the team. As it stands, if any
of Kroos or Isco develop injury, Madrid’s season might as well be finished.
