#4 Inconsistent performances from the promising Marco Asensio

Real Madrid CF v RCD Espanyol - La Liga

Marco Asensio often termed as the best youngster in world football alongside Kylian Mbappe had a huge responsibility on his shoulders as he was going to feature more than ever for Real Madrid after Cristiano Ronaldo's departure. Marco Asensio started the season on a high and contributed to team victories against Leganes, Espanyol and Girona but underperformed against Athletic Bilbao, Sevilla and CSKA.

Florentino Perez refuted from signing any other player to replace Cristiano Ronaldo as he did not want to hamper Asensio's growth and looks at Marco Asensio as his personal project. Asensio definitely has what it takes to be a talisman in the future if he remains consistent throughout.
