After the failures in the league and Champions, Pellegrini's team had to bow to the superiority of Barcelona The 260 million invested by Perez have not borne fruit.
Full stop. The new draft Florentino Perez buried yesterday during blank, the second row. The expectations created after an outlay of 260 million euros have been a step up in the idea of rebuilding the Real Madrid forward. Barcelona's win ended up driving the Closing the only link she had left the set target. His numbers do not go to decorate a runner-up worth very little. Just today, Perez will start a new crusade to try and curb the power Barca.
On May 14, 2009, Florentino announced his return. That campaign slogan - the illusion back - now seems a nod to the sun. Ronaldo, Kaka, Benzema, Xabi Alonso, Albiol, Arbeloa and Barn have not finished with Barça supremacy. While Guardiola's team lengthened his life and Champions Cup, Madrid signed its first crash before the Alcorcón. "The Cup was inexplicable," he reflects Pellegrini. Lyons then took out the colors. Outside in the second round for the sixth consecutive season. A blow for coach "requires further analysis."
In League, returned to hit Madrid with Barcelona, who could not make a goal: 1-0 in the Nou Camp and 0-2 in the Bernabeu. If this is added the 2-0 and 2-6 the past campaign, the total is staggering: 2-11. Whites close the course with 96 points and 102 goals, 5 goals from his record, and with only one defeat at home to Barca.
Lack of project
The feeling remains that we do not see a serious project and it all boils down to the book. This year the goal was, according to Valdano "find an antidote for Messi and Xavi." It was not possible. Al Madrid was not enough to Higuain Ronaldo-society, its two main livelihoods, which have joined 53 goals. Nor with Kaka, a drag for most of the season. Between the lack of acclimatization and injury, the Brazilian, who cost 67 million euros, was a black hole of the team. The other one is for Benzema (35 million).
The poor performance of some transfers, the Real Madrid has been on the verge of joining the worst insult. The presence of Barca in the Champions League final at the Bernabeu would have been a great punishment for Florentino. What prevented Mourinho, now everyone sees that as a substitute for Pellegrini. Until Valdano, his only defense: "Now we start the discussion to take appropriate decisions and discuss what direction to take." Mourinho says will decide his future after the European final. "I will spend two days thinking about my future, but I am far from being the coach of Madrid," he said.
If finally a stop in Madrid was talk of a new style for a team that still can not find the course, engaged in a losing momentum.
