    Mckennie is only on tour becuase it is to US.
    Mckennie is not good enough to be second choice for the B team

  2. G1an dijo:

    NOBODY likes Allegri

  3. Ancelotti sacked by November!

  4. Bull JA dijo:

    Only real og fans know real madrid dont do well in preseason remember wen atlectico smash us 7-3 and we went on wining the league with the best defense

  5. Alex Dumala dijo:

    Prolly Because Juve is the biggest club in world football

  6. GO dijo:

    Everyone that doesn’t think our diamond formation doesn’t work is on drugs. We dominated this match and did well against barça too. Our defense needs chemistry. Our team hasn’t finished building chemistry with each other and haven’t hit sharpness yet. Real season we are making a ton of those shots.

    We were just unlucky. We do need another attacker but the formation isn’t the problem. We will need it against low blocks anyway.

  7. Maybe Liverpool can finally get thier revenge this season 😂😂

  8. Jeremy dijo:

    We talkin about practice! 😂 the greatest club to ever exist that doesn’t even care about La Liga and we talkin practice! Real Madrid is currently building the youngest team ever assembled

  9. Formations can be changed in the game, Madrid could and should attack in that diamond, but defend in 4-4-2… Valverde and Camavinga go wide to cover the full backs, Bellingham covers Central with Tchouameni/Kroos

  10. KreepKid dijo:

    The solution to Madrid's middle of the park dilemma is Camavinga,Tchouameni and Bellingham. Ever since Ancelotti started dropping Tchouameni Real have looked suspect at times. As much as Modric and Kroos have served the club well, they are not the answer to Madrid's problems. They can start in league matches but not in the crucial stages of the CL because they simply don't have the legs at this point in their careers to be going at it like that.

  11. He should honestly stay he finally has someone for Chem

  12. That's because they benched Rodrygo.

  13. Pedro Pierre dijo:

    To play a modern diamond, your press mist he impeccable

  14. Real should’ve pushed for Kane, they desperately need a number 9. Seems like RM are writing off this season already until mbappe next seasonS

  15. Kroos as a DM for over 60 minutes? What a surprise that the team lost by several goals and were overrun..

  16. Edwin S dijo:

    2 seasons ago RM preseason was bad as well. Pre season doesnt matter

  17. Spooky dijo:

    I can tell you why, they’re garbage that’s why.

  18. Mamadou dijo:

    Until Real Madrid has a proper 9 a focal point
    They are just waisting their time

  19. I have been saying Real Madrid defense is bad. They been bad all last season

  20. Milad Yalda dijo:

    Real Madrid needs Mbappe a new manager who can introduce new tactics, ideas and give the youngsters trust.. Ancelotti is more of a yesterday manager than Jose mourinho.

  21. dsvp dijo:

    Kroos and modric dont need to be starting on the field at the same time . Theres too many great options . One of them out there at a time is enough

  22. lacko223 dijo:

    That attack doesn't bother him? Really?! 😂😂 Well, it should: ONE goal in two games against Barcelona and Juventus lmao

  23. Sophia dijo:

    Attack doesn’t worry him… they had 63 shots and one goal💀💀 none of them are 50 goal a season players

  24. Tunastakes dijo:

    No credit to Juventus for breaking down Real Madrid with intensity for a large portion of the game despite not having the majority of the possession?

  25. We have three big reasons why we're struggling
    1st . Still yet players are not installed in our new 442 system
    2nd lack of number 9 that's why we really need Kylian Mbappe
    Third.we should really improve our back Line

  26. Праско dijo:

    Mbappe should come to Barca next season, Vardrid are finished. Pellingham getting pocketed by McKennie, Romeu and Fermin Lopez 💀

  27. Adam dijo:

    They need to learn how to press correctly and shut down spaces and suffocate the other team like City/Liverpool did, or just become a completely counter attacking team, right now they're neither.

  28. Chris Gray dijo:

    Madrid needs to play a 2-6-2

  29. Jobin Jose dijo:

    Why's he playing 4-4-2 even with Joselu on the pitch? Is ancelotti using real madrid to experiment for his brazil job next year?

  30. Rain dijo:

    Liverpool and RM are competing for most goal conceded in shortest time

  31. B C dijo:

    I don’t think most people realised how importance Benzema was to Real Madrid. They will struggle a lot and Barca are favourites to defend their title

  32. Just play 4-3-3:Courtois:Carvajal, Militao, Rudiger,Mendy:Modric,Tchouameni, Bellingham:Valverde,Rodrygo,Vini…. (4-3-3):Lunin:Vazquez,Nacho,Rudiger,Fran Garcia:Ceballos,Kroos,Camavinga:Guler, Joselu,Brahim…very simple…Carlo is just complicating things… this squad is solid and can be rotated easily

  33. sevvvs dijo:

    because Vini sucks at finishing

  34. I think Anchelotti must prepare his pages now, if we will continue struggling defensively, and still makes the same stupid mistakes like last year. I think ONE SEASON more than enough to fix these problems !!!

  35. Giovanni dijo:

    It's a meaningless preseason friendfly to experiment with squads, no one in their right mind takes these things seriously, except for ESPN FC 🤣

  36. The smartest thing that should be on everyone's mind right now should be to invest in different streams of income that are not dependent on the government. Especially with the current economic crisis around the world. This is still a good time to invest in gold, silver, and digital currencies (BTC ETH…)

  37. Placeholder dijo:

    Ancelotti is no good when he actually has to coach instead of doing this🤨 & chewing gum

  38. We all know RM. They lying. They’re going to dominate Europe this season.

    Barca fan. 😢

  39. e' L dijo:

    It's not Their Defense, its their recent fall out with their refs..They either need to buy them out again or buy new set of refs

  40. Mike Jones dijo:

    McKinnie is one of the best midfielders in the world.

  41. e' L dijo:

    Nah it's not their defense… They've had a fall out with their refs.
    Apparently the refs are demanding high payment now adays and seeing how Arrogant Papa Perez is, he refused to up their payment, that's why they couldn't win the Champions league last season

    But if Papa Perez mutually agrees with his refs demands or buy new set of refs, they will become a force they refs have made them to be again

  42. non 452 dijo:

    Go back to the 4-3-3 have rodrygo start as a no.9 we did that at times last season and were relatively fine

  43. Atif Saeed dijo:

    I won't be surprised if Ancelotti be relieved from his duty as Madrid's coach before Christmas. He played Bellingham in every game and didn't give any game time to Guler. If he doesn't wanna play him, why would you take him to pre-season? To get injured before the season starts.

  44. Anuraag dijo:

    The 4-4-2 doesn't work. Plus Nacho, Carvajal, Vazquez are spent

  45. Bodi dijo:

    taking serious pre-season games that much?

  46. Syd dijo:

    Put mbappe in that game, real Madrid would've scored 5+

  47. Veronica dijo:

    I don't start the day without you)💝
