#2 Departure of Cristiano Ronaldo

Real Madrid v Liverpool - UEFA Champions League Final

Cristiano Ronaldo, a man around which entire Real Madrid team revolved, now plays for Juventus. A five-time Ballon d'Or winner's departure has left a big void in the team. With the tricky skill and speed he has, it is difficult for anyone to replace him in the team. Ronaldo played a pivotal role in last season's Champions League win against Liverpool.

Juventus, on the other hand, have not lost a single game since the arrival of Ronaldo. With all done, Real Madrid needs to find someone who can fill in his shoes in the team.

With the departure of Ronaldo and Zidane prior to this season, the team’s morale has gone down and the team has started to look fragile with the oppositions making inroads of their defence. Madrid are currently placed 6th at the moment in LaLiga and are currently out of the race for securing a berth in Champions League next season. New manager, Solari has to work on the team's tactics and formation to get them back onto the winning ways.

With half of the season almost done, they need to act quickly to regain momentum and crawl their way to challenge the silverware.
