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:
