Steve McManaman has pointed out the main problem behind Real Madrid’s struggles—and called it a real “poison.”
According to him, the issue isn’t just tactics or individual mistakes… it’s the lack of balance and identity in the team.
He believes Madrid are relying too much on individual brilliance instead of playing as a complete, structured unit.
Another key problem? Inconsistency and poor defensive organization, which keeps costing them in big moments.
In short:
not a talent issue… but a system problem.
