"Now, as time goes by, Real Madrid is in trouble, while Paris Saint-Germain has successfully gotten rid of this situation and demonstrated a more coordinated operation model."

The glory of Paris and the tragedy of Mbappe

While Enrique and his team continue to win honors, the former main player of Paris, Mbappe, was pushed to the forefront of public opinion by the media. The inside story exposed by Cert Radio made his situation even more embarrassing.

Since Enrique took over the team, Paris has gradually faded its former superstar aura and moved towards a new direction of relying on young players and pursuing tactical innovation. After leaving the team, Mbappe gave up Gonzalo Ramos and Kholo Muani, and transformed Ottoman Dembele into a "pseudo-Nine", successfully constructing an offensive system with strong liquidity, and finally completing perhaps the most dominant championship season in history.

The negative performance of 8 kilometers per game is useless. In the Champions League last season, Mbappe's average running distance was only 8 kilometers, and his contribution without the ball was almost insignificant. In the 2023/24 season, Real Madrid won the double championship under the leadership of Ancelotti, and the attacking line composed of Vinicius, Rodrigo and Bellingham showed a strong offensive and defensive balance. The support of Brazil's double stars to the defense is the key to the team's ability to withstand the impact of strong teams such as Manchester City. However, Mbappe's slackness clearly affected the performance of Vinicius and Rodrigo, making the Brazilian pair become "Mr. 8 km", and the dynasty collapsed in a series of strong dialogues.

After gaining support from Florentino, Xavi Alonso now has the power to decide the fate of the team, and they can not only clean up role players, but also reorganize superstars. As an important member of Florentino's shaping of the "Galaxy Third Period", Mbappe shoulders great expectations. However, as the main attacker, Vinicius is undoubtedly better than Mbappe's tactical universality, and it is still unknown whether the latter's physical weaknesses can be improved. Xavi Alonso will face a difficult choice.
