"Marca" has analyzed Real Madrid this season and shows that Real Madrid's attack is weak and Ancelotti needs to make real action.

Instead of dominating La Liga with a big win at the start, Real Madrid dropped half the points in nine games, and the gap between them and Barcelona became increasingly clear.

After Kroos retired, there was widespread concern about the creativity of Real Madrid's midfield. But surprisingly, Real Madrid not only has problems in creativity, but also appears weak in attack.

The team was predictable, slow, dull and uncreative. Although only three rounds had gone by, the lack of fluency was getting worse. The team had no other tactical plan but to look for attacking opportunities by passing the ball to Mbappe or Vinicius whenever possible.

Kroos is gone, but apart from Valverde, no other player has been able to fill the void. On offense, that's the case. On defense, the team relied too much on the individual ability of the front court players to solve problems, so that no one put pressure on the opposition.

Three rounds have been enough to show that Ancelotti needs to move from reminders of stars to actual action, he has a lot of work to do and is under enormous pressure.
