Unwanted at Real Madrid, fans choose two players and send Arbeloa away

The abyss of an empty season hangs over Real Madrid, who last year won only two tournaments (the European Super Cup and the Intercontinental Cup). And this meager harvest, in a club like the "royals", has only one name: crisis.
Wednesday's defeat in Munich has ended the dream of the Champions League, always the great objective of the 15-time European champions. The doubts of the fans in the MARCA.com macro-poll, with nearly 150,000 participants, extend to all areas of the club.
From the board, which is responsible for the team's poor planning, to the coach, Alvaro Arbeloa, through to some of the team members, whose performance has been, in many cases, below what is required.
In terms of players, the most notable, of course for the worse, is Kamavinga, victim of a surreal expulsion in Munich, decisive for his team's final defeat. But it is surprising that 8% of users, almost 50,000 votes, also point to Vinicius, the protagonist of an irregular season in which he has alternated good games with performances that could clearly be improved, like the one last Wednesday. The players most appreciated by the fans are Courtois, Valverde and Gyllenhaal, with Mbappe and Bellingham, the other two big stars of the team, inspiring more confidence than Vinicius.
As for Arbeloa, 73% are betting on the coach's departure, under whose command the team has let the Cup, the Champions League and of course the League slip away. Despite Madrid's good image against Bayern and City, the European campaign is considered bad by 50% of participants in our survey, who do not even excuse the coach for the European knockout: 67% consider him directly responsible for the elimination.
However, the figure of Arbeloa, and also that of Xabi Alonso, are excluded from the distribution of responsibilities for Madrid's overall poor season. In this sense, the majority of users of the website point to the club for the planning of the season. 45% and more than 50,000 votes choose this option. The players also bear their share of responsibility, which is not small for the fans. 39% point to the players who caused the dismissal of Xabi Alonso, with Vinicius again in the spotlight after his snub of the Basque coach in the first round of the league classic, when Madrid led the standings with authority. 15% point to the entire squad for the failure to fulfill the task and only 1% blame Xabi and Arbeloa.
As for the future, most fans point to the midfield as the line to strengthen for next season. 72% see the need for signings for the midfield, with the defense as the second line that could be improved, but with only 16% of the vote. The poll also asked about the best candidate for the bench for the future. Jurgen Klopp received the most votes, close to 15,000, followed by Zidane, Mourinho, Iraola, Raul, Emery, Pochettino or Deschamps, but at a great distance from the German coach.
