BEING A REAL MADRID RIGHT WINGER
Not many players have successfully treaded the right wing of Real Madrid and come out on top and stayed there. With Rodrygo, however, his story has been one of many sacrifices. For me, it’s about Rodrygo’s sacrifice/s and not his form. From Di Maria to Gareth Bale, to Vazquez and Now Rodrygo. All of them that played there as a right winger, had to sacrifice or were sacrificed repeatedly for the teams greater good, so is the role. The problem with being a sacrifice is that your life-span isn’t going to be long and the people always have a prepared table on standby, to kill you on. Especially if you’re not a natural right wing and you’re only playing there to fill a gap, the minute the system changes, if you fail to adapt, you’re done for. And no one will seem to care about what you did for us yesterday.
Rodrygo has been that lamb for us, time and again. Now we have a coach that doesn’t want to kill him, but would rather seemingly move him to another shepherd (Club).
DEFENDER AGE RANGE
Look at the age range of defenders our club has brought in the last couple years, all in their early to mid 20’s, some teenagers when they arrived here (Militao, theo, danilo, odriozola, vallejo, carreras, varane), barring alaba and rudiger. so if they dont turn out right over the next couple of years, dont blame our club for being hesitant to go back into the market again for another defender. whether fullback or CB. I know we’ll forget this because our memories tend to be short.
CEBALLOS
Came in when we needed him, did his thing, but it’s been time to move on for fresher players.
KONATE
We still need the extra CB. can’t trust alaba anymore and Ascensio is still a hot head and then there’s his case that’s still in court. his name needs to be cleared completely from that case.

Vallejo is likely heading to the 2nd division with albacete. Modric In Milan, Vazquez is looking at joining Mourinho or going to the middle east.
