While Madrid still possess elite attacking talent, Guti believes the side has become too dependent on individual moments rather than a strong collective structure. He also suggested the changing makeup of the dressing room has weakened the unity traditionally associated with the club.
“What doesn’t it lack? It’s a team that is missing many things,” he added. “Defensively, it concedes too many goals. Offensively, almost all of its attacking production depends on Vinicius (Junior) or (Kylian) Mbappe. Collectively, this team is lacking a lot. Having more local players made the group stronger. When there are players from all over the world, it is very difficult to build a group. Before, it was easier.”
