#2 Get the best out of Marco Asensio

Asensio has failed to hit the heights expected

Another player expected to benefit from Ronaldo's departure, Asensio announced himself to the world in 2017, scoring a goal in the UCL final against Juventus, before scoring two stunners from distance in the 5-1 aggregate victory over Barcelona in the 2018 Spanish Super Cup.

Ronaldo's presence meant his impact was limited, even though he made a significant number of appearances as Ronaldo also operated on his preferred position out on the left flank.

With Ronaldo's departure, this was earmarked as the season where Asensio would truly break out and become one of the elite players in the world, but that has not been the case so far.

The 22-year-old has scored just two goals in 17 appearances this season and has found himself out of the first team in recent weeks as a result.

Marco Asensio was touted as one of the future Golden players of Spanish and Real Madrid's football, and it is imperative that Santi Solari figures out a way to get the best of his undoubted talents to succeed at the club.
