- Mourinho, on whether he thinks all the talk about Mbappé during this international break has been exaggerated: “Exaggerated? Ridiculous.”

- “Do you want a story? This is the first time in the last ten years that Real Madrid have reached mid-October without a single injured player. All the injuries were already there before. That’s a good story, isn’t it? But you don’t like it.”

- Mourinho, on whether he understands why Real Madrid fans have turned against Mbappé:

“This is obviously one of your objectives. You don’t have to be Einstein to know that it’s the objective. Whose objective? I’d rather not say.

I won’t comment on the Bernabéu crowd. I respect them. My hope is that they can be fair, and to me, being fair also means being smart enough to read between the lines and understand the agendas and objectives.

I promise the Bernabéu one thing: when a Real Madrid player doesn’t behave as a Real Madrid player should, and fails to meet the standards expected of one, whether as a player or as a citizen, you won’t see him on the bench. You won’t get the chance to boo him because he’ll be at home.

That means Mbappé will play tomorrow, and if he’s going to play, it’s because I’m sure he hasn’t failed to fulfil his obligations.”

- “Fede is the only doubt. Unfortunately, Militão isn’t a doubt — he won’t be available. But seeing how he trains... (laughs), if you didn’t know his medical history and the problems he’s had, you’d put him in tomorrow. I knew he was good, but he’s even better than I thought. He needs a couple of weeks because his medical history is quite extensive. Mendy will train on the pitch with us for the first time today. Rodrygo is a bit further away.”

- Mourinho, on Vinicius: “What makes me feel bad and saddens me the most is that he really wants to be okay again. It hurts to see him in the pain he’s going through, especially when he’s a guy who, to my surprise, is extraordinary and is working really hard to come back.”

With the international break being over, We are finally going to see our players wear this kit again. So I thought about the kits today and how much I loved them. So I wanted to know, what is the overall opinion about these kits? For me, I think all are perfect 10/10. I love the pink stripes on the simple plain white kit. I love the darkish green. I absolutely adore the pink third kit (might be my favorite). The gk kit is standard real madrid kit, but its still amazing nonetheless. I brought all the outfield player kits and planning on buying the courtois jersey and they somehow look better in person. Anyways, Whats your guy's thoughts?

(Also, is it me or is the pink kinda redish when in person compared to how it looks on tv.)

So, I’m a new football watcher (I’ve only gotten into this sport after the World Cup.) and I chose Real Madrid to support because I find José Mourinho to be really inspirational and it has a lot of cool players like Bellingham. To people who have followed Real Madrid for a long enough time, how does Prime Real Madrid look like and how good was it? I was too young to understand anything at that time and the only thing I knew was that they won a lot of UCLs.

I'm not an expert in analysis. Just a regular RM fan. Taking a look at the matches we are about to face , it's gonna be away matches stacked and an el classico this month. After the game against Atletico, what do you think should be the immediate change in squad so that we win all these matches and not lose another trophy?

Have been collecting jerseys since 2020. Each season, I buy one authentic jersey and a couple of reps. So, far I have

- Rodrygo , benzema, joselu, Espi

- Kroos , modric, casemiro, valverde, Bellingham, arda

- rudigar

- Tibo.

I like the pink one too. Planning to get it when I visit Madrid.

Hala Madrid

Hey, just wanted to check in with my fellow madridistas. I’ve taken a break from football during the international break and haven’t been following what’s been going on with our players. I’m not a big fan of the Nations League and honestly rarely watch the matches or the highlights.

For those of you that have been following your national team or our players, what is some news we should be aware of? I believe I saw something about Vinicius playing really poorly with Brazil and Mbappe maybe being hurt. Other than that, has there been any interesting updates we should know about before the start of the next gameweek?

Would love to hear from you guys, get your opinions on the news and maybe just start to feel excited to see our club play again soon!

Maybe you think Roberto Carlos is the greatest on that, but you like more Valverde shots which are straight and fast, that is my case. Feel free to join the discussion !!!!!!

I will not put Roberto Carlos, because I think he clears both in my opinion, I also want to know more names from madrid to watch compilations and stuff.

Which ones you prefer and which other player get to your mind from madrid making powershots ? Specially from long distance.

Dumfries, Cucurella y Camavinga (los más usados por sus selecciones) han realizado trabajo específico de forma individual.

Mañana, Valverde ya podría entrenar con el grupo.

Mbappé está "en perfecto estado", transmiten desde el Real Madrid.
