Mbappe and Vinicius are incompatible. What should Alonso do? You might as well learn from Mbappe s old boss

In the summer of 2024, Real Madrid signed the freelance Mbappe without spending the transfer fee, which shocked the football world: It's not bad! Originally, it was a collection of superstars and the UEFA Champions League lineup configuration. Now, who can play with Real Madrid or La Liga?

As a result, the defending champions in La Liga and Champions League were all empty in the 2024-25 season. Mbappe is indeed strong with 31 goals, but what's the use?

The season ended and Ancelotti was dismissed. The most famous young coach of this era, Xavi Alonso, took over. The wounded defenders returned one after another, and two fierce men, Arnold and Wyson, were introduced. Real Madrid's prospects in the Club World Cup are optimistic. As a result, he was defeated by Paris Saint-Germain 4-0 in the semi-finals, which is no different from Real Madrid, where Frick coached last season.

With Real Madrid's current situation, Alonso may not be able to achieve better results next season than Ancelotti last season - avoiding no championship.

What's the problem?

Spanish media Ass wrote an article saying that Mbappe and Vinicius almost never pass the ball to each other.

Mbappe was questioned at the beginning of last season, such as the UEFA Champions League defeat of Liverpool 0:2 away and the La Liga defeated Barcelona 0:4 at home. Mbappe's performance is not like a striker who can gain a foothold in the giants. At the end of the season, after being eliminated from the Champions League and the King's Cup, Mbappe ushered in an outbreak in the league. La Liga lost 3:4 away to Barcelona, and he could score a hat-trick, and eventually counterattacked Lewandowski to win the La Liga Golden Boot, which is also the European Golden Boot.

Vinicius performed well when he was regarded as a sure win of the Golden Globe Awards before the results were released, with his value rising from 180 million euros to 200 million euros. But after the results were revealed, the performance became increasingly mediocre, with only 1 goal scored in the last 11 games of the season. There is almost no stage where the two people explode at the same time.

As pointed out that in the new season, Alonso needs to solve a major problem, that is, the two superstars, Mbappe and Vinicius, are incompatible.

Mbappe and Vinicius must be compatible and it is almost impossible to achieve the effect of 1+1=2 on the court. Both of them regard themselves as superstars, and their best positions are the left wingers, and no one wants to go to the right. In the past, Rodrigo, who was not in the plan of Xavi Alonso, was actually good at the left.

In fact, at this point, Xavi Alonso might as well learn from Mbappe's old boss.

In the summer of 2017, Paris Saint-Germain won Neymar and Mbappe for 400 million euros, which attracted the attention of the world, but it has never won the Champions League title. Messi also came in the summer of 2021, but the three monks Neymar, Mbappe and Messi had no water to eat. In the summer of 2023, Messi and Neymar both left the team. In the summer of 2024, Mbappe also left the team. Now, Enrique Ergenzi became quiet. There was no difference between who plays in the front line and who plays in the starter, so the historic Champions League championship came.

On Alonso, if you want to take Mbappe as the core, then let him be fixed in the left winger position where he is best at. Only by expelling a thorny head like Vinicius can the problem be solved. During the peak period of the BBC coached by Zidane, left winger Cristiano Ronaldo was very strong, but he was also inseparable from Benzema in the middle and Bale on the right. Bale was the green leaf on the left. If Benzema, Bale and Vinicius are the same as the current Vinicius, what else can Real Madrid take for the Champions League?
