Description

On this episode of the Managing Madrid podcast, Siddharth Ramsundar hosts Mazin Mukhtar discuss Carlo Ancelotti’s tactical struggles in the 2024/25 season so far.

This episode is an update on an initial one earlier in the season when we first discussed the need for Ancelotti to coach more fine tuned details and patterns into this team in the absence of Toni Kroos, which obviously hasn’t happened since.

An overview of the main talking points and analysis from the episode are presented here prior to the episode below:

Contents:


  • Ancelotti’s rough start

  • Pressing without sufficient ball pressure

  • Buildup: the first pass is too fast and plays into the opposition’s hands

  • The Mbappe integration challenge

  • Final third contradictions: full backs providing false width, wide attackers box crashing

  • The Bayern Munich warning signs: players organized their own training sessions

  • Potential solutions
