Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti expressed his satisfaction with how the team’s new signing, Kylian Mbappé, is adapting to life at the club. Despite the France captain not finding the net in the first three LaLiga games, Ancelotti praised Mbappé’s performance, highlighting the danger he creates on the pitch. Playing alongside Vinícius Júnior, Mbappé has shown glimpses of his talent, even without scoring goals.
Ancelotti emphasized that the chemistry between Vinícius and Mbappé is developing positively, and he believes that with time, they will create a formidable partnership. The manager is confident in the team’s offensive capabilities and sees no reason for concern, especially with the quality of strikers at his disposal. Despite facing criticism for the slow start to the season, Ancelotti remains optimistic about Real Madrid’s attacking prowess.
Navigating Early Season Challenges
After a successful campaign last season, where Real Madrid clinched the LaLiga and Champions League double, Ancelotti understands the high expectations placed upon the team. Currently sitting fourth in the table, Ancelotti acknowledges the criticism but remains focused on addressing the team’s performance issues. The manager is determined to rectify the challenges faced in the early stages of the season and is working closely with the players to improve their overall gameplay.
As Real Madrid prepares to face Real Betis, Ancelotti remains optimistic about the team’s prospects. He acknowledges that criticism is part of the game, especially when managing a powerhouse like Real Madrid. The focus is not solely on closing the points gap with league leaders Barcelona but on enhancing the team’s cohesion and tactical approach on the field. Ancelotti’s unwavering belief in his players and their ability to overcome obstacles sets the tone for a promising season ahead. With Mbappé settling in and the team striving for excellence, Real Madrid is poised for success in the challenging LaLiga season.
