Valverde work ethic is insane
He runs with the attack but sprints to defend he doesn't get enough credit
True
Yep. He is the engine of the midfield. He does all the runs and relieves Kroos from running/burning energy. While Kroos coordinates the midfield. Kroos completed 63/64 passes. That is insane.
@tvictor504 I think this teams chemistry is something else the fact that Madrid can play with no natural CB and get results is insane
Valverde and Camavinga are not given enough credit in that midfield.
@@vyogh they're not the standout players, but the engine fuel in our team. The slow-burning pride, not the shining stars like Jude, Vini. Love them all.
Girona was the top scoring team and Madrid held them to ZERO shots on target
Give Carlo his credit
With Carvajal and Tchouameni playing CB. Incredible manager
Carlo should get no credit since Almeria game it's clear la Liga is fixed and tebas wants his favourite club to win.
@michaelscobut but but but Granada were robbed of 3points against barça 😂
Finally the one of the panelist atleast acknowledged Brahim Diaz. He has been superb considering the game time he had been given
If he improves his finishing a bit more he would be too good
Vini & Jude were both excellent…shame Bellingham is injured, but they’re on cruise control in La Liga from now until the end, give them the trophy now
it's still 5 points you Muppet
Kroos Control*
I fixed it for you. Kroos is having an insane season so far!
@@fgarcia2791 this is easy mode for him. Barca and Atleti miles off it this year
Jude was excellent,Shame Bellingham🤣
There are Brahim, Ceballos, Modric, or Arda can play in that position...
Vini best player in the world right now. Absolutely amazing.
Palmer foden best league >>>>>>>>>Vini jr
Right bro
100%
100%.
Second Bellingham
Third Kane
@@Henrique-ro3pg chelsea fan trying to make his team relevant
Against Girona, Vinicius Junior had one of the best performances of his career. A goal and 2 assists and how he played was breathtaking and just some slick football Joga Bonito at times all over again. He literally cooked Yan Couto and every time he had the ball he put fear into his opposing fullback and it’s not the first time we’ve seen him do that and rightfully so after the game Carlo Ancelotti called him the best player in the world and that’s a subjective opinion that’s saved for another conversation.
He’s one of those players who elevates his performances in big games and some people will tell you that he goes missing in big games. Vinicius Junior is one of the best big game players in world football and has a tendency of showing up for Real Madrid when the lights are the brightest and he did that again on Saturday. His Girona performance is an example that he’s world class and when he puts his energy on playing the game, there’s no stopping him and ranking him among the best players in the world at best top 5-10. For Real Madrid he’s finding his form at a pivotal time for them especially with the champions league returning and they’re set to have a deep run in the competition and maybe win the whole thing and he’s fit and firing on all cylinders. In his last 6 games he has 6 goals and 3 assists and this season he has 12 goals and 6 assists and would have more G/A if he didn’t spend a chunk of the season out injured. With Jude Bellingham out for 2-3 weeks, they need him to continue his brilliant form. He had a 10/10 performance and Vinicius Junior dropped one of the best individual performances ever seen from a player this season.
Goal in the final vs liverpool
Vital assist and goals vs chelsea & man city in the ucl
2 goals in el clasico
So many other big games where he scored or assisted (liga and ucl) so definitely a big game player
Also, people can hate esp the barca fans (never appreciate greatness unless its their player) but vini this year upto this moment has been the best in the world. I would put him ahead of mbappe definitely and haaland for sure. Hopefully he keeps it up and gets the trophies he need to make a case for the balon d’or (media would push for bellingham)..
@@Prince-tv9xfI mean Bellingham has been better and he is not been injured many times unlike vini so jude deserves to be leading the list for ballon d'or
@@Prince-tv9xf Vini hasnt performed as well as Jude this season, jude and mbappe are leading the ballon d'or list for now, vini hasn't been consistent enough and has been injured for a while
@@Roman-yv3yeVini is better, even Carlo said that. Vini was the main man in both Barcelona cup final with a hat trick and the match that would decide the league. BIG game player
@@omarhaider1626Tell me what has Bellingham done more than scoring a lot of goals in La Liga? Vini decided two titles for RMA already and coming from an injury.
I think it's clear that our best CB pairing atm is Meni and Rudiger
I still choose Alaba over Tchou
@@mohammedmahameed9082well alaba’s is not in consideration at the moment cause of his ACL injury. So if we are including players with long term injuries, then Rudiger + Militao are the best pairing.
Valverde is under rated. He doesn’t gets enough credit
True, Cama as well. He was running like a headless chicken all match.
They get their due credit.
The reasons Girona were not able to exploit the defence were Valverde and Camavinga especially Valverde...You have to beat them first to go on and challenge the defence line.
According to FIFA Messi was the man of the match.
😂 That dude retired and is still catching strays.
and MVP of the Superbowl.
Is that Voted by Madrid players valverde and Modric too??? Coz they know he is the goat. 😂😂☠️
@michaelscofield7000 they were representing their national teams, that doesn't mean they themselves wanted to vote for messi.
@@JR-Weh yes, especially after it was Modric that first pointed out the bias of referees towards ARG at the World Cup.
This was a Ballon d’r performance by Vini in this game.
Hahaha 😂😂😂😂 not in a thousand years
Trust me lads, Brahim Diaz will bury Leipzig and other La Liga teams when Jude isnt available! People dont realize how talented the kid is with the best goal/min ratio for us this season!
Brahim is great 🎉
Jude Bellingham had his injury been more serious he would’ve been out for 2 months and Real Madrid are fortunate that he’s only out for 2-3 weeks because it could’ve been even more serious.
Right now in La Liga they’re 5 points ahead of Girona, Real Madrid just cannot catch a break with injuries and as good as they’re playing right now, you just want them to keep everyone healthy. It’s a massive blow for Real Madrid that he’s out for 2 weeks because he’s been so impotent to their team whether it’s his goals overall play versatility etc and the guy has come up decisive for them when they needed it. Without him they’re fine in La Liga and they should be able to take care of RB Leipzig even if they’ll miss his presence and Carlo Ancelotti will go with a 4-3-3 or the same system with Brahim Diaz next to Vini and Rodrygo and keep in mind how good he’s been this season and he’s really stepped up and been an unlikely hero for them and I expect more of the same from him with Jude Bellingham out for a while and thank god it’s only for a couple of weeks.
Craig is going to lose his mind when he hears that The Athletic reported today that Mbappe’s deal with Madrid is now in doubt😂
Mbappe-PSG, the gift that keeps on giving. I want him to renew for this specific reason 😂
I laughed when I saw that and I am Madrid fan 😂😂 that mbappe man
@Roman-yv3ye
And Jules said it was a done deal just last week. The amount of bogus content that ESPN FC have created out of Mbappe to Madrid for over 3 years is ridiculous. Just report on it if it’s actually a done deal. Otherwise, leave it be.
Considering the retrospect, it was always in doubt.
I'll only believe mbappe to RM when he plays the first game 😂
Vinicius and Bellingham are still improving. If I was Real Madrid I wouldn’t buy mbappe I would try push for haaland in the future
Haaland is just a tap-in merchant. Very good but still a tap-in merchant. Very limited player, heavily dependent on his teammates. Vinicius, Jude, Mbappe are miles better. Give Endrick 3, 4 years and he will be better as well.
@@chamartinpl I’m not sure about mbappe ego how will affect the team. He will have to keep humble there because Real Madrid isn’t like PSG. Players won’t tolerate his attitude. Real Madrid can ruined his career we see this happening before.
@@chamartinplPSG let him do whatever he wants on Real Madrid won’t be the same if he tries he will be in trouble. Ancelotti won’t tolerate him
@@chamartinpland a tap-in merchant is exactly what we need rn. Someone who will finish every chance off easily.
@@redpandagency Real Madrid have been dealing with egos for their entire history and they are the best in that regard. Di Stefano, Puskas, Gento, Kopa, Rial played together with great success. Do you think Mbappe is stupid? He knows that Madrid is not PSG. And don't believe everything the media says. Mbappe is not as bad as the press paints him. Ronaldo had bigger ego and the club kept him in check.
Arda, brahim and joselu will step up in ucl
When Real Madrid players recover from their injuries they are favourites in the CL. 115 FC look weak. Slow, robotic, predictable and as boring as always. Madrid are physically better than the rest, and the quality was always there. Last year, World Cup in the middle of the season was too much for an old, aging team. Now they are younger and looks like Pintus did his magic again. On the top of that, out of 3 best players in the world, they have 2. Only Mpappe can be compared to Vinicius and Bellingham. You watch Madrid and you are excited by the way they play. You watch 115 FC and you feel like you were reading some dull manual.
Lmfaoooo 115 FC. Haven’t seen that one yet 😂😂
What is 115 FC?
@@mecharenazedoilchester city 😂
@@ravividyarthi1013 how come 115 have any relation with oilchester City? Please explain it to me. I don't buy it yet
@@mecharenazed 115 charges 😂
Brahim is a total upgrade compared to Asensio. I'm glad we brought him back to Madrid. He's a complete attacking midfielder.
Jude bellingham celebrates like tht bfr when he was at borussia. But people and media gets noticed this bcz now he is playing for Real madrid, thts the difference you gets when u playing for madrid or Barca..Now his celebration is iconic one like Cr7 siuuu...
Hey, what's up Frank's Halo? Has anyone seen this? It's hilarious!
They're playing better every weekend.
Are we talking enough about the work done by valverde and camavinga to cover up the centre backs and wing backs the whole game.
Real Madrid's workhorses. There not rated enough
Attack is indeed the best form of defense
Craig Burnleys analysis is a treat to watch. Moreover, I think instead of "Im the man", Bellingham says "This is what you came for"/ "Are you not entertained?"
Finally vini jr is being recognised. It’s his team. The whole reason Bellingham is having a good season is bcs of the team. They do all the hard work and he just scores them. Rodrygo, vini, Valverde camavinga are the heart of This team. Sorry Jude lovers
Vini is better than Mbappé but you're not ready for this conversation 👀👀
Bro stop lol
@@sneakytacos773you stop. Stop underestimating and hating Vini. Mbappe is a great player, but not so gifted technically. Vini is more creative and improviser. He does not play with a limited rehearsed trickbag on one against one. He is capable of inventing something new on real time to submit his opponents.
He's definitely more technical than Mbappé but I'm not sure if he's more clinical
Definitely this year! Mbappe cant dribble and get out of close spaces like vini does. But overall its very close between the two. Its like comparing a lambo to a ferrari, many pros and many cons.
They’re different players. Vini is an out and out winger, Mbappe is a forward/ attacking winger. I give Mbappe the edge, way more direct & clinical for club and country
Brahim will replace bellingham. So no problem.
Vinicius Junior is the best player in the world right now!
They spoke about tweaks but missed the genius move by Ancelotti. Mario almost got it here at 1:33 but missed the key point in the end, as did Burley.
The tweak was moving to a 3 in midfield instead of 2 in front of the defence in a 4-2-x-x. This let Valverde and Camavinga patrol the inside channels where the Girona full backs operate, just as Mario mentions with Miguel, which Couto also does. That was the difference in how he set the team up. Yes, moving Vini and Rodrygo back out wide also played a role, but it was that defensive set up that the game was based on.
🤠 off to Carlo
Craig with excuses again- Danny Blind didn’t play so they didn’t know when to pickup Bellingham or not. BS.
😂😂😂
What you will see now in La La Liga is a Real Madrid on cruise control winning 1-0s until the end. At the same time total focus and maniacal games in the UCL to win it again 🔥🔥🔥
I can’t believe that Real Madrid actually beat Girona without any proper center backs. Despite the news that Jude Bellingham is out for 2-3 weeks and injuries continuing to plague them, this weekend officially ended the La Liga title race with Real Madrid beating Girona 4-0, and Barcelona dropping points by conceding 3 goals to a relegation threatened team at home and are 10 points behind them and Atletico Madrid aren’t a bad side they’ve been inconsistent on the road recently.
I know Real Madrid have had a lot of injuries but when the other contenders like Barcelona and Atletico Madrid have had their inconsistencies respectively with Barcelona dropping points against teams they should be beating and Atletico Madrid having their own problems away from home even though they have an excellent home record, who’s gonna challenge them as Real Madrid every challenge or setback they’ve faced they take care of business and nothing has stopped them from winning games. Girona have been impressive and Real Madrid home and away are the only team that has defeated them in La Liga, but do they have enough in the tank to sustain a title challenge that’s the thing with them. What’s gonna stop them from winning La Liga even if their whole team is injured, don’t care they’re winning the league regardless and the title race in Spain has just been wrapped up this weekend.
i respect your analysis bro, been seeing you alot past few months you put a lot of effort into these
@@omarhaider1626 thx sir. Really appreciate it.
The same people who predicted Girona to win 😂😂
No one predicted them to win,only young pundits who don't know much about football
Not true craig predicted Girona to beat Realmadrid by 2-1........watch espn preview of madrid vs girona@@derrickgrey6680
The comment on bringing up brahim aged well
they forgot about brahim diaz and valverde
Whenever real in trouble ref comes nd help them den dey get good form .. Almeria game is great example
who cares???
Little indian culer crying in the corner
Mario favorite is Vini. I love you...
France should play in AFCON
Craig stop that Blind is an excellent player by all standards by real were without all four centre backs...
Its not like blind is zidane 😒
This could very well be Real Madrid's 1st 11 next season........
.............................Courtois..............................
Frimpong.........Rudiger...........E.Militoa.......A. Davies
.....................Tchouameni................Camavinga...............
Rodrygo.............Bellingham.............Vini Jr
.....................Mbappe...........................
Bar Courtois...this would be the first Real Madrid to ever field 10 out-field Black players. What a great site to see and hopefully could help breat down some of the racism that runs rife in La Liga.
they shld give Mario better internet
He’s African
They don’t have good internet connection
@@A_r78 why are you racist
Wallahi Arda might just be the one Don Carletto
Hala Madrid Absolutely unstoppable
🤣🤣And Barcelona fans they claim Real Madrid is corrupt is paying referees so in this case did Madrid pay Girona players to play poor and concede goals
Hala ESPN Hala Madrid 🦾✨💥😁
If Mbaape comes to Madrid where is Vini jr going to play because they both play in same position that is left side
Mbappe will be a striker, Vini has the same level or more than him rn and he is improving like a mad man
@@joaovitorcamargo7165 At PSG he is playing as number 9 n he doesn't like to play in that position
@@pankajmajithia4429 Right, then it's better to just not get Mbappe and get Haaland instead right. Vini is just too good and is getting better.
He isn't going to be the man when Mbappe comes. Mbappe will make sure he knows that when he arrives. There is going to be ALOT of egos in that locker room and Mbappe will have the biggest.
Real Madrid no center backs blank Girona, yet Barcelona with cbs let up 3 to the 2 worst team in the league
Lol, why are people acting Girona is a great team? They are just one of a surprising team to come out of nowhere, but they're not a team to be like, oh, Real Madrid have a game on their hands.
They are pretty strong this season. Same could be said about Manchester City some years ago
I am in the absolute minority, but i think bellingham is overrated man. The guy is so effective but he doesnt get me off my seat.
Vini is fantastic. I love him as a player
right...
Not really. Hyped yeah he is a lot because he's english. But he's no.2 in the world rn.
brahim arda and fede say hi
Mbaape doesn't like to play centre forward position
Bellingham has a healthy dose of arrogance, and we love that at Madrid.
Bellingham is GREAT! But I hate that celebration.
🤷🏽♂️
Craig loves to say nothing interesting. I'm convinced that he watches these videos just to hear himself talk lol.
Farmer league
vini jr is not consistent ...real madrid will lose against leipzig
That being said he is the man of 90% of Madrid's recent titles
@@joaovitorcamargo7165 yeah benzema was a joke i guess ?
@@liamsh6978vini said "am gonna make sure benzema wins the ballon dor" the same week messi won his 7th bdor, why do you think benzema loves him so much, he has his pic on his IG story to show love to vini everytime he has a great game. Vini is a legend at Madrid at the age of 22 but you are a kid so i don't expect you to know anything. Keep on hating tho.
@@liamsh6978 Benzema can't do much without Vini but Vini can do a lot without Benzema
@@joaovitorcamargo7165 in his wildest dreams vini will never achieve what benzema did nor have a season like benzema had in 2022, we'll see when vini faces teams like man city, bayern and arsenal...mbappe will bench him soon and real madrid will get rid of him...i know how florentino perez works
For God (Yahweh) so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son (Jesus Christ), that whoever believes in Him (Jesus Christ) should not perish but have everlasting life.❤🙏
Am not gonna worship a jewish man.
Kyle walker owns him in the champions league last season
Tbf, Vini scored in one of the games. But yeah, the other game Walker had his number
so?
Vinicius embarassed Walker and City in the first game. In the second leg many Real Madrid players played with injuries, to the point they couldn't even run. This time will be different. They are the best team in Europe this season and they are coming for their cup. Only Mbappe is on the same level as Vinicius and Bellingham. City are up for spanking.
@chamartinpl we don't need excuses, just results
Only in the second leg. I remember Walker against Vinicius 3 years ago when city beat Real Madrid in bernabeu Vinicius gave him a nightmare game. City won the game with Gabriel Jesus goal but Vinicius own Walker many times
Farmers league
Yes every league is farmers league if la liga is one
Imagine the most competitive league according to you...all of those have been killed by farmers league teams😂
@@sumethanarulanantham9676 every Madrid fan and espn pundit have done their best to say how poor of a team Barcelona is. All year long. Tebas has done his best to ensure Messi could not renew, nor come back. Absolutely no evidence on a negreria case, but yet every Madrid fan likes to shout about it. There was a systematic attack on the club which has worked. Congrats to Madrid and their fans. Now you got yourself a Farmer's League. Spain is now a one team league because that's what the monarchy wants. Barcelona keeps petitioning for Catalan independence, so Madrid and the rest of Spain will put pressure on them in every way. They just lost the Catalunya Grand Prix in F1 to a track that's to be built in Madrid. There's a lot going on, for a long time too. But Madrid won this one. Farmer's League
They have 4 teams in the UCL, no? How many other leagues have right now?
@@sumethanarulanantham9676Farmer’s league with 3 different winners in last 3 seasons😂 What will you call epl?
