Hello and welcome in to the latest edition of ESPNFC Kay Murray, Craig Burley, Shaka

Hislo and Stuart Robson and once again back in the studio with us as we continue the conversation

on Florentino Perez being re-elected as Real Madrid president.

This is some of the reaction from the papers.

Mark are going with the victory.

Mundo saying Florentino wins and Marino returns.

And Diario asked with Florentino 2030.

So now that it is confirmed, we wanted to look forward.

And Stuart, we wanted to take a look at some of the areas

that really do need dealing with right now

and where Florentino needs to be looking when it comes to his players on the bench. Yeah. I mean, if a manager was coming in and he had the gumption to say, I don't want him and I don't want him, I'm talking about, you know, Phoenius Jr., I would do that, but I don't think he's going to have the power to do that. So if you're looking at players to come in, you need a player on the right-hand side, because they haven't really got any quality out on that right-hand side of the top level. You'd need a right-back because I don't think Alexander Arnold is quite good enough, and there's already talk of Dumfries coming in, and they need to send a half, because and is Canate, they're talking about him coming in, in is he good enough he's had a poor season but I think he's had a few issues off the field so they're the players I would think him but the manager who comes in has got to make the best of the players he's got because he's got a good midfield I think in Bellingham as the attacking player they've got Valverde is a holding midfield player alongside Turemeny. They've got a decent, they've got three left backs that they could play that are okay. And they've got Venetius Junior who could be an outstanding player if he just concentrated on football and they've got one of the world's best strikers in Inbap. So they've got some good players, but the manager's got to get the best out of them. And they're just the three players I was thinking that they might need.

Too many. Cammervinger didn't have a good season. Didn't make the French squad. Valverdi Bellingham, you mentioned them, throw in some playmakers, Diazard de Guller. But particularly those first four, international footballers, but are they good enough? I mean, and that's, by that, I mean, not are they good enough to play for Real Madrid, but do they have a good enough balance?

For example, there's no passers in there, really.

If you've got Vinicius Jr., Mbapé, Bellingham playing in the number 10, and a right-sided player, like, they're talking about a lise maybe coming in then you

need balancing midfield so you probably couldn't have a ball playing midfield or you've got to have

two midfield players that are going to be solid and i would say Tewomania and valveri could do that job

very well because i look at Barcelona they're not physical in the middle of the part really and

their best pairing in there at times is I know they play with the number 10 sometimes

it's Fermin Lopez something is Danny Elmo but their midfield pairing is Frankie Diorg and

pedry and it's very effective there's not a lot of physicality in there what's the difference between

the front players of Barcelona and the front players of Real Madrid at the moment well they, they work hard. They work hard. So the two midfield players for Barcelona don't have to be quite so good defensively because they're the players, you know, they're the secondary players for the closing down. When you're playing for Real Madrid and Venetius Junior's not working hard enough, and Mbapé is not working hard enough, and Bellingham's made a forward run and doesn't get back, then I think those two holding players... That's the big question going forward, Jack. I mean, the big question is not just the balance and, you know, Cruss and Maud, which are not there now, Casimir went before that, two fantastic passes of the ball. They haven't got that now, so it's a different dynamic. But they have

got talent, right? They have got people that can pick open the defense of Guller plays or
