La Liga 24/25

[BerkeleyBernie]

Well played, Real Mallorca. Could very well have taken all 3 points themselves.

Nice detail Vini and Tapellingham getting subbed and Mbappe staying. Let's get em all fired up.
Mbappe ruined the QSG trio hope he can finish Real both Financially and as a team.
But other than that Real is full of quality

He is their sole number 9. They'll keep him on the pitch for full 90 every game.

That's why it's key to approach each game fired up and motivated. Madrid didn't do it, and no surprise a tough nut like Mallorca got points out of them.

Let's hope they approach more games like that.

Madrid were fired up. They just weren’t good enough.

Also Mallorca were making subs and Ancelotti just did the peoples eyebrow for 88 minutes whilst his team tired.

I said before and say it again: looks a tad slower mbappe.

Nah, slow and sloppy at the back. I mean yes, not good enough due to Mallorca being more focused in the match.

But he is incapable to play 9 or false 9. There is no doubt he isn't that guy. No heading ability, no ability to hold the ball or push the CB backwards. Anyone who saw QSG should have been warned.
He is at his best as inside forward.
They sold Joselu?

Hay Liga!


But seriously. It's important for other teams to remember they are facing Grandad Ancelotti on the retirement tour and not Vini-Mbappe-Jood-Rodrygo-etc.

See it's a one horse race I see u Hans.

Also, the defenses in La Liga in games like these are tougher than in just about any league. If you look in Bundesliga and EPL, teams are so stupid often.

He is not, in space had a huge run in the start of the game. He is not that agile maybe but the position is killing his lazy ass. He is not that talented to replicate what Messi did.
Tried it for 2 seasons and failed miserably.
He can score for sure but playing false 9 or 9 makes him a 👻 for much of the game.

Yep, I was telling another poster the same a few weeks ago.

La Liga teams are way more organized defensively than anything Mbappe sees in France.

He'll still score loads of course but lower level la Liga teams are on another level to most in Europe.
