#5 The Bale issue
Since Ronaldo’s departure, it was almost certain that Bale was going to be his successor at Real Madrid, and that he would finally achieve the purpose for which he was brought in 2013. Bale started the season positively for Real, and it seemed like he would now be able to carry the mantle of Los Blancos and lead the club to domestic success.
But after failing to find the net in Real Madrid's home win against Valencia, Bale is now on a dismal goal drought in LaLiga. He has been unable to score in 10 consecutive La Liga appearances, his worst ever run.
All that said, this still isn’t the worst Real Madrid of all time. Solari is slowly but steadily trying to put things together and assemble a team which needs some stability to start with. It is now for the players to decide how to approach the situations as and when they come.
