I don't see how Mbappe fits in Madrid with Vini hugging that LW and Rodrygo wanting it.

I just don't see him playing Centrally.

Carlo has been planning for it for the last month or so.

Rodrygo and Vini are rotating alot. In both the Citeh games and last night Rodrygo and Vini would take turns on the left and in the centre and/or play in the same area with Jude often taking the centre and right side when those 2 are attacking down the left.

I forgot about Ancelotti lol. My dumb ass was thinking about Mbappe the player.

I'm not convinced about playing him in the center tho, it seems counter productive. Especially with the way how La Liga teams like to sit deep.

Again we'll see if he's really a team player, Madrid isn't PSG and he won't get his way just because of who he is.

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.
If it was 2–0 I'd say Dortmund were straight; 1-0 I think PSG will still make it.
I think Dortmund is good enough for a draw in Paris.

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