Shoutout to the mods who do a fantastic job, Valyrian Steel, Kung_Fu_Zizou, Juninho, NeRObutBlanco and YoSnail.

It is match day!

It’s the first match of the season in Bernabéu! The match is a bit earlier than usual - at 16h15 CEST.

Ancelotti’s press conference

Carlo was asked what has surprised him the most about Tchouaméni since his arrival:

Nothing has surprised me, because it is player we know very well. A club wanted to put so much money on a player, so we needed to know everything about him. His is showing what he had thought. We are working more on the defensive aspect. He defends very well, but we need him to adapt to the style of the other two midfielders he plays with. And this needs time, because his positioning changes a little when he plays with Modric and Kroos in comparison when he plays with Valverde and Camavinga or Ceballos.

Ending contracts
