Real MadridTOThe consulting firm Driblab analyzes the poor performance of the extreme gals and its recent evolution
ANDn the last two seasons the Real Madrid project has gone through ups and downs especially in attack. After Cristiano Ronaldo’s departure, the team has lost reliability face to door and the goalscoring production has plummeted since then. Gareth Bale seemed one of the proper names with more capacity to make up the march of the Portuguese but his influence has followed the downward dynamics of the last years.The consultantDriblabIt clearly shows the bad moment of Gareth Bale. If we analyze the figures of the last seasons, the fall of the astro gals has been total: Their numbers have plummeted both in the creation of expected goals, the chances created and the vision of the game for the last pass (expected assists).
The comparison with previous years is especially dramatic if we take the 2015/16 season as a reference. After the dismissal of Rafa Bentez, Gareth Bale was the player with the best performance at Real Madrid and his version closest to that of a white team leader for success and for a greater influence on the team’s game. Since that season his level was decreasing and his importance in the schemes of Zinedine Zidane was less. Since thenhis shot selection has worsened and his weight in creating chances has slumped. Without comparing its 2015/16 radar with that of the current course, we can easily see this new reality.
Without Cristiano Ronaldo and with the best version of Gareth Bale increasingly distant, Real Madrid is still looking for a figure in his biggest pending account: the goal.The white ’11’ remains one of the best face-to-door assets with 0.51 goals (excluding penalties) for every 90 minutes played since 2015/16; currently only surpassed in the squad by Karim Benzema with 0.53. Can Bale be recovered?The gals is one of the footballers with the most offensive potential in the white squadAnd Zidane needs him to make up the gap that still remains after Cristiano Ronaldo (0.84 goals -without counting penalties- for every 90 minutes in his last year as a Real Madrid player).
