On the first postgame episode of the new Real Deal, Siddharth Ramsundar is joined by Loconte and Jarod Hector to review a disappointing but not wholly surprising performance by Real Madrid at the Emirates. We go over the tactical mismatch between Ancelotti & Arteta in this game, the various things that went wrong on the pitch, the strategic flaws as a club that led Real Madrid here and the season-long issues that have shown in the data and eye-test. We then discuss hypotheticals like how we would do against PSG tactically, as well as how we may fare against Barcelona in the remaining matchups this season after this disappointing result. We even touch briefly on Dortmund v Barcelona at the end. Since this was the first episode with our new crew, we took a little bit longer to break things down than we normally will going forward. Enjoy!
