After watching Rodrigo was scolded, he realized that in Real Madrid, talent is never a gold medal.

A difficult away victory should have been the overture of champagne and celebration in the locker room. However, for Real Madrid, this difficult victory has become the fuse for the outbreak of internal conflicts. After the game, some big-name players of the team pointed their finger at Brazilian striker Rodrigo and severely criticized his recent professional attitude.

When the boss stopped silent

This conversation that should have been celebrated eventually turned into a tense internal criticism meeting. This is not an accidental emotional vent, but a total outbreak of dissatisfaction that has been accumulated for a long time.

Dean Juisen and Alvaro Carreras, witnessed and was shocked by the fierce argument. This inadvertently seemed to have become a live teaching of Real Madrid locker room culture. Here, no matter how talented you are, behaviors that violate team guidelines will be most directly hit. The anger of the teammates from the field to the field is due to the recent continuous power outages on and off the field.

game: He has seriously insufficient investment on the defensive end and has limited contributions on the offensive end. This disappearance at critical moments seriously hit the trust of teammates.

Training: Rodrigo's attitude in daily training also declined, acting more absent-minded and less devoted than before.

For a club like Real Madrid that has the ultimate demand for players, talent is never a gold medal. When a player begins to slack in his professional attitude, the alarm bell inside the locker room will ring immediately.

Alonso's ultimatum

This internal conflict also completely conveyed the pressure to head coach Xavi Alonso. Now, the challenge he faces is how to reactivate Rodrigo's mental and competitive state before the cracks in the locker room become irreversible. The coaching staff knows that Rodrigo is a talented player, but they understand the rules of survival of Real Madrid better. If attitude issues are not improved, no one can guarantee their starting position. This quarrel led by the big guys is actually an ultimatum to Rodrigo. Either you win back your trust with your actions or you will face the risk of being marginalized.
