Kylian Mbappé is injured — so how should Xabi Alonso’s Real Madrid adapt while he’s out?
In this video, I share my opinion on what Real Madrid needs to do without Mbappé, how the team should approach matches during his absence, and what adjustments make the most sense under Xabi Alonso.
This isn’t a full tactical masterclass — it’s a fan perspective mixed with football logic, focused on:
How Real Madrid should play without Mbappé
What Xabi Alonso needs to prioritize right now
Team balance, intensity, and decision-making
Whether Real Madrid can still perform at a high level
Mbappé’s injury creates a moment of uncertainty, but also an opportunity for Real Madrid to redefine how they play in the short term.
