Hope Don Carlo cardiologist is ready for next season. Managing Mbappe, Jude and Vini is gonna be stress.

It's so ass.Gatekeeping a CL semi on ya streaming service should be grounds to lose coverage rights
Here in Ontario, we get 1 PL game on the weekend and CL knockouts on Cable, which makes no sense.

Mbappe has played centrally quite a bit this season. He's kinda accepted that he'll have to adapt himself even tho he doesn't like it and wants to play off a target. As Carlo doesn't do a real structure when attacking he's the only coach who can make it work that will allow Mbappe and Vini to have freer roles. Helps that Camavinga Valverde and Jude have the engines to do the job of 2 players.
The three will probably just rotate across the front line in a fluid manner. Sometimes Vini will strike, Mbappe on the left and Rodrygo on the right and vice versa.
I think Dortmund is good enough for a draw in Paris.
Nah, the one thing about Real Madrid I’ve always liked is that the club’s hierarchy doesn’t play with that star power thing. I remember one time Rodrygo was getting sassy when Don Carlo subbed him off and the Brazilian got an earful.
Bernabeau is not the Parc de Prince.

Play this way now you gotta depend on a next man to make your dreams come true. Mikel "Sugar Baby" Arteta.
This is true but Madrid have not had 100m players become a problem because they occupied different spaces. Figo, Zidane, Ronaldo and sometimes Raul could coexist. Benzema was unselfish enough to let Ronaldo play the way he played.
But now you got Vini and Mbappe who both love that left side. Mbappe tries but he's half the player he is when he's central. Not to mention Jude has had fun this season because the lack of striker has allowed him to take up attacking positions that wouldn't be available with a good #9 in place. It's going to be interesting.
Vini probably gets sold after 1 season.

To my understanding Welsh teams "had no choice" cause there was no league in Wales back then, as for Scotland I'm not sure if they "can't", it's just that they got their own shyt, also I don't see Celtic applying for the Premier League and being cool with starting off in the lowest division. And Ireland is its own nation
Real Madrid got this.
I still think they make it work. Even this season we’ve seen Vini play more centrally to good effect. Mbappe gonna learn to evolve his game.
A lot of Jude’s goals have been runs from a deeper position a la his recent goal against Barca. When he’s actually playing as a False 9 he’s poor.
Nah, can’t see this happening. If anything, Rodrygo is the odd man out.
