Your last paragraph didn't address my point. Psychological explanations are irrelevant, when I pointed the different tactical approach that backfired for you.
Then OK you are probably talking about another coach in general since you want Modric and Kroos out of this approach.
Back to my original claim about fantasizing what can't happen under Ancelotti in general, let alone in 1 game
About the first chunk,
I think you mistake many traits of our defenders. Both Eric and Kounde, and Ter Stegen are phenomenal on the ball in short and long passes.
Where are the 'terrible ones' you saw?
Busi, yes, he was bad, but he is not enough to say you could have scored 2 or 3 by putting pressure on backline.
The last classico is a good example, since our CBs could easily pick long balls to our wingers despite being pressured.
Makes world of difference what mindset team goes into game with
When someone knows they dont need a win and dont have two tools that they normally do that help them win, they naturally dont care too much and showed afterward where captain went out into mixed zone and said it straight up they weren't very much in it because were 10-15 points up in table
At that point everyone should of realised the 0-4 happened because Barca were on good form and Real went out just to turn up for a day of work while doing none of it
I didnt claim traits of your defenders. I said they were trash tonight at the beginning of the match and really until Busquets went off, and should have been made to pay far more than did in the period of domination that lasted too short
Garcia, Roberto and Kounde were shocking getting ball out the back especially in first 20 mins
First example would be that pass which got played under pressure from right side of your area, and went out for a throw-in for Real the opposite side of the pitch by your goal as were trying to escape
Several more that got played you can go watch back
Last Clasico is a waste of analysis time, not representative of either team strength or weakness
In fact that entire Barca honeymoon run from signing Auba till international break in late March/early April did plenty to mask real qualities of several Barca players like Garcia
Then again this one now is also not a great sample of level as several starters out and Busquets worst he's ever been in a Clasico I think
And that's all without mentioning just the defending which was hilarious sometimes
Frenkie pedestrian movement on the Fede goal to cover leaving centre wide open just to close Vinicius shot on his right lol
Many more moments which attest to this being mercy/apprehension on Madrid part if they ever got over their insecurities in exploiting Barca weakness
