6 Ballons for Messi

but what if he wins 7??
Tbh, I prefer they keep ancelotti than getting benitez.
Ancelotti always uses the same 11 and that costs him the league, like it did this season.
Benitez rotates like a madman, with the insane depth real has, benitez could actually do what lucho did for us here.

Thing is, they are getting Benitez for his managerial style that is opposite to Ancelotti, rotates, plays balanced, disciplinarian, hard on players, etc, however they'll ask him to change a lot of those things because of the team he'll manage and the players present.

Players also love Ancelotti because he is a player friendly manager. That could be a problem for the long term benefit of the club, having a coach that always does what the players like to keep the happy, like all the problems they've had with fitness and injuries, however to go from that to a disciplinarian, and not one with a pedigree to match both Ancelotti and Mourinho, could very well end up in a complete and utter disaster.

We'll see what happens.

Ego's are gonna clash. That's for sure. And Real Madrid are full of them.

He will leave probably, as should others, if they dont want to waste a year or two of their careers. Gonna get very depressing under Rafa, both on and of the pitch.
Look at Barca's state last season and even after new years, for all you know Benitez will do great or it wont even be him. Its a very pessimistic outlook even for Barcaforum standards

Damn, I didn't realise james finished the season with 17 goals and 18 assists.
What a gem of a player.
Bale looks like a myopic penguin compared to him.
