#3 Out of form strikers
Readers would be in disbelief while the perusal of this point, evidently, as Ronaldo has scored a hat-trick this weekend and a brace against PSG in the Champions League, but the Portugese has been good only in patches this season
His inconsistency has added to the team's woes. It would be harsh to individualise the 32-year-old because the team has failed to provide their strikers any momentum.Just when things appear to be turning around, Real have blown it out perfectly.
Ronaldo is not, however, the lone culprit here. He has netted 23 goals in 28 appearances for his team but has been let down by his counterpart, Karim Benzema. His recent form deserves no worse adjective than - awful.
The French forward has been missing some sitters in front of the goal. In his 25 appearances he has managed to find the back of the net only six times. The 30-year-old has often been a subject to the wrath of the Bernabeu faithful.
Zidane needs to figure a way out to heal his front-line troubles quick enough or Madrid could be left quenching for silverware at the end of the season. Their forwards need to be doing for what they are best known.
