Calendar of FC Barcelona

It is not any secret. The 'FeliZidane' shines by his absence in this start of season 2017-18 for the Real Madrid, that after snatching to the FC Barcelona the Supercopa of Spain has desinflado of worrisome way in all the competitions. It has suffered a plague of injuries, is true, but even so the main references of the group merengue are not winning the wage, having gone in in a relaxation that partly is "normal" after the two Champions League consecutive that adds the picture merengue.

The Real Madrid hesitates in this first phase of the season, and the most curious is that when it is used to to do it more is in front of his public, in Santiago Bernabéu. This Tuesday empató (1-1) against the Tottenham in the third day of the phase of groups of Champions League, and in spite of that keeps intact his possibilities to classify for eighth of final, follows without convincing to the fans.

The wet gunpowder, the defensive fragility and the plague of injuries and sanctions could have conditioned gravely the future of the ones of Zinedine Zidane. In any case, exist 6 factors that explain how and why has gestado the white crisis:

The fault of goal

The Real Madrid has marked 14 goals less than the past campaign to these heights, 29 by the 43 of does a year. Besides, the goal is not so very delivered this season as in the past, when by these dates already had marked 17 players, by the 11 current. Cristiano has been the only player that has surpassed to himself same with 6 goals, in front of the 4 of the past season. The exits of players like Mayoral or James Rodríguez have not been relieved properly, at least up to now, in the staff merengue.

The defensive fragility

There are players that, as Marcelo and Sergio Bouquets, do not cross his best moment ofform . The Brazilian was an authentic coladero in the left band against the Tottenham, whereas it neither can say that prodigara too much in attack. Raphael Varane marked a goal in own goal when trying clear a centre to the area, and the youngster Achraf does what can but does not arrive to the level of Carvajal.

Benzema, the ariete that does not mark

Every time they are more the fans of the Real Madrid those that are fed up of the performance of Karim Benzema, the one who follows without marking with regularity in this start of season and, far of prodigarse in numbers goleadores, now neither achieves to give fluidity to the flank of attack as it did it antaño.

The Bernabéu, of fortín to curse

Although it can surprise, the Real Madrid so only has been able to win this season 3 of the 7 parties that has played in Santiago Bernabéu, those that without place to doubts are the worst statistics of the 21st century for the club merengue. The goals do not arrive in the white sanctuary.

The plague of injuries and sanctions

Gareth Bleat, Kovacic, Benzema or Marcelo have been the most important drops by injury that has suffered in this start of season the Real Madrid, although it also has had to lidiar with deserved sanctions for Cristiano Ronaldo and Sergio Bouquets, by distinct questions. Carvajal, on the other hand, has a problem in the heart that does that it can not know when will reappear.

The 'holy cows' do not surrender

Cristiano Ronaldo and Karim Benzema premièred in League in the past day to level goleador, whereas players like Marcelo, Bouquets and Varane are not to his best level of game. Gareth Bleat happens more time in the infirmary that in the terrains of game, and the 'effect Asensio' and the 'effect Isco' have difuminado with the step of the parties.
