After a lackluster performance versus Rayo Vallecano over the weekend that resulted in a dull 0-0 draw, Los Blancos showed up versus Portugal's SC Braga in their UCL tie and not only scored 3 great goals but also looked good doing it. With this latest win, Real Madrid has secured their ticked to the knockout stage so on we go to the Round of 16.

Carlo Ancelotti made quite a few changes to the Starting XI that had faced Rayo at the Bernabeu over the weekend. Brahim Diaz stepped in for Jude Bellingham, Lucas Vasquez slotted into right back in place of Dani Carvajal, and Rodrygo was back in the attack in place of Joselu.

Brahim opened up the scoring, Vinicius made it 2-0 with a great strike, and finally, Rodrygo scored a much-needed goal that was not only a beauty but will surely also boost his confidence again in front of goal. Both Vini and Rodrygo, who have not been at their best in La Liga, looked solid in attack and seemed to once again find the swagger that made them a nightmare for opposing defenders.

In this episode, we discuss Real Madrid's performance versus Rayo, their subsequent improvement versus Braga, and we also discuss Brahim Diaz, Ancelotti's coaching choices, and why I have grown somewhat tired of Vini Jr.'s occasional but justified whining in La Liga. VAMOS!

At this point in the 2023-24 season, if you overhear football fans talking about an amazing Real Madrid player doing amazing things, scoring last-minute goals, and hoisting the team on his back to pull them over the finish line...you would probably know that the player they are speaking about is Jude Bellingham. At 20 years old, he is, without a doubt a Real Madrid legend in the making.

Pundits and journalists worldwide, whether they are sitting behind a laptop in Kolkata, a newsdesk in London, or a TV studio in Connecticut, have already pretty much agreed that the words and the adjectives used to describe what Jude Bellingham has done so far in his first season at Real Madrid are starting to run out.

He hasn't just defied expectations, he has grabbed them, slapped them around a bit, and confidently stared them down while saying, "Is that all you got?".

He was already making jaws drop and shutting up rival fans before this weekend's El Clásico. But one right-footed rocket from outside Barcelona's box to score the equalizing goal will now make him part of highlight reels for years to come and an indelible part of Real Madrid's history.

And the best part about his performance against Barcelona this past Saturday was that it wasn't even his best game. But like other world-class players that have come before him at this historic club, one moment and a sliver of space is all they need to turn a game on its head.

In this episode, we discuss Real Madrid's win over Barcelona in El Clásico and we of course talk about the one man that made all the difference. "Hey, Jude!"

Once again, the time has come for two of the world's biggest football rivals to face off against one another. Real Madrid, who are coming off a draw against Sevilla in the Sanchez Pizjuan and a UCL Group Stage victory over Braga in Portugal, will now prepare to battle their bitter rivals from Northeastern Spain. Yes. That's right. Next up, El Clásico.

The Blaugrana come into this match missing key players, looking a bit unconvincing but fired up and invigorated by their youth prospects who have carried them across the finish line when they needed the win.

El Clásico, it has been said, is a game where recent form means little. Both teams come into the match wanting to deliver a knockout blow. Both teams want to win. And both fanbases want blood, figuratively of course.

In this episode of the Y Nada Mas podcast, we discuss Real Madrid's recent games against Sevilla and Braga before diving into what we can expect from El Clásico such as desired lineups, Barcelona's current form, and much more. Give it a listen!

The international break is almost over and La Liga action will return this weekend versus Sevilla.

Since their loss against Atlético Madrid in the Madrid derby Real Madrid has demonstrated a winning mentality and has returned to the top of the league table with recent wins over Las Palmas, Girona, and Osasuna. In the Champions League, Los Blancos defeated Serie A champions Napoli.

Jude Bellingham has continued his incredible form and now has 10 goals in 10 games for Real Madrid in all competitions.

Sevilla, regardless of their current form, is a different team to face when they play in their home ground of the Sanchéz Pizjuán but as we discuss in this podcast, the team with likes of Bellingham, Vinicius, Tchouameni, Kroos, etc...have begun finding their footing in Ancelotti's new system.

We'll see if the international break will affect Los Blancos.

In this episode, we discuss the win over Napoli, Osasuna, Bellingham's incredible form, and Real Madrid's chances in the UCL and La Liga this season.

Real Madrid has now returned to the top...for now. After losing the Madrid Derby versus Atlético Madrid at the Metropolitano over a week ago, Real Madrid have returned to their winning ways and have since picked up two wins. One against UD Las Palmas during midweek and this past weekend another win versus surprise league leaders Girona.

The win versus Girona propelled Los Blancos back to the top of LaLiga and now Real Madrid head to Naples to face off against Serie A defending champions, Napoli.

In this episode, which we recorded on the move - something I want to do in order to keep content flowing even if I am not in studio - we discuss the win over Girona, Camavinga's return to the left back position, our defensive woes, and much more!

The storm from the weekend loss versus Atlético Madrid has passed and Real Madrid have bounced back from that loss with a win over lowly UD Las Palmas.

But this is Real Madrid, and a loss against our crosstown rivals always stings and gives the more rabid elements of the Real Madrid fanbase a reason to claim that the house needs to be burned to the ground and rebuilt from scratch, so to speak.

But it's still very early in the season, so we need to remain calm (insert the Cristiano Ronaldo "Calma" GIF here). Now, obviously, that doesn't mean no mistakes were made and that there is no room for criticism but pointing fingers and laying the blame squarely at one person's feet is also not the way to go.

In this episode, we talk about the loss versus Atlético over the weekend, the win over UD Las Palmas this week, and what we have learned from our first loss of the season. It's not all doom and gloom, so perk up and ¡Hala Madrid!

Yes, Madridistas, we don't have a #9 and we need another quality RB to deputize Dani Carvajal BUT regardless of that, there is something to be excited about.

We have something very special.

And that special something is Jude Victor William Bellingham. What. A. Player.

In this episode, we talk about what has essentially become The Jude Bellingham Show, as well as Florentino's obsession with Mbappe, our love for Carlo Ancelotti, and more. VAMOS!

Real Madrid has started off the season on the right foot with two wins in their first two games of the season. In addition, new arrival Jude Bellingham has fit right into this young Real Madrid side scoring three goals in his first two games.

However, it is still safe to say that Madridistas are happy but nervous. Carlo Ancelotti's new 4-4-2 diamond formation may be getting the best out of Jude Bellingham and the team's stacked midfield but it is also affecting Real Madrid star, Vinicius Junior who clearly looks uncomfortable playing a more central role. But with Karim Benzema gone and no world-class number 9, Ancelotti is seemingly doing the best he can with what he has been given.

In this episode we talk about Spain's win in the Women's World Cup, Real Madrid Femenino's Olga Carmona, Spanish Federation drama, and of course Real Madrid's win over UD Almería.
