Ask Kiyan Anything: Mbappe's Positioning, Arda Güler...
Q: What should Real Madrid do about the current tactical issues with Vinny, Mbappe, and Bellingham?
The club needs to address the fact that all three players struggle to coexist due to overlapping roles and lack of defensive support.
Ask Kiyan Anything: Mbappe's Positioning, Arda Güler...
Q: What do you think the correlation is between Arda's performances and Kylian's poor play?
