Real Madrid Confidencial Guti Doesn't Hold Back and Points to the Most Unexpected Madrid Player After the Defeat: 'I Don't Know...'
The former footballer has pointed to a culprit for Madrid's defeat, and no one imagined it
In Madridism, they are looking for the culprits of the defeat against Arsenal by 3 to 0. Many of the criticisms are being directed at Ancelotti for not making the decisions that the match demanded. Mbappé and Vinícius are also being heavily criticized after their poor performance.
However, Guti has surprised everyone by focusing on another player that almost no one expected. "I don't know if Courtois says he fails because he had to put 5 players," he began saying. He was referring to the wall and the players he could have placed in it.
The Belgian acknowledged that he should have placed 5, but "in the next one, he also placed 4 players." Guti believes that the Belgian should also be partly responsible for this resounding defeat. "I don't know why he mentions the fifth player if then the second..." he continued reflecting.
It is clear that all the blame can't be placed on Courtois, who has made several commendable interventions. But he did make that mistake when it came to placing more men in the wall. Especially when Declan Rice had already scored a first great goal a few minutes earlier and nothing changed.
Guti Also Criticizes the Team's Stars After the Defeat Against Arsenal
Courtois has not been the only one criticized by Guti after Real Madrid's defeat against Arsenal. The team's stars are also being heavily criticized in every comment. In this case, it will not be an exception as the former footballer has named names.
"The best have to step up in the most important matches of the season," he began saying. In case there was any doubt, he emphasized that "we are talking about Kylian, Vinícius, Rodrygo, and even Bellingham. They are the ones who have to step up in this match and they haven't."
The defensive collaboration of the forwards continues to be one of the major complaints that are repeated. "If you don't score five goals every match, you'll have to run back as well," Guti concluded. We'll see if they have learned their lesson for the return match.
