Huijsen looked very good, Carva got some minutes. Looking healthy. And his old self. Like Masto's aggressive play. I think messis will make it to WC, but barely. He seem's to have doubt.

don't be fooled. It's haterade. Of course Xabi has to win, and win trophies. That's the expectation at Madrid. Always been that way.There is a transitionary period, that is going on right now. We are already seeing settle changes. Also, the player's have to buy in and do it on the field. As far as defense and possession, I like what I see so far. A few brain farts (Tchou) in back. Plenty of chances up front to score. Lottin has to work with R and/or Vini. Soft spot is the midfield. Arda and Masto pushing up field, need Tchou/Cama (when he come's back) to cover. That is my concern. Neither has been consistent enough. And injured a lot. Fede? Look's exhausted, not himself. Rest him some. Thoughts on Masto so far, very raw. I think another season at River would have been good (they wanted it) but Madrid where worried he would get away. He can play now, but when Jude come's back, should see less time for now.
