Real Madrid should have,in theory, already been leaps and bounds ahead of Barcelona this season.Barcelona are still reeling from the loss of Neymar.Real Madrid are are the La Liga and Champion’s League champs of last season.They were supposed to have come charging out of the blocks this time around.However things have not gone as planned.Ronaldo is still sulking on the sidelines somewhere after picking up that five game ban.They are currently four points behind Barcelona having drawn both of their last two games.
The latest is a 1 -1 draw against Levante at home -in which they also lost Marcelo to a red card.
Zidane is of the opinion that flattery and success have gone to the collective heads of his team and they are paying the price of overconfidence.
It’s still early days yet so they have plenty of time to take corrective action.No need for panic just yet.
