The Bernabeu and the Spanish press are losing patience with Tchouaméni

The Real Madrid player is singled out after his team's defeat against AC Milan. The Bernabeu is also annoyed.

Author of a very complicated start to the season, Aurélien Tchouaméni somehow hit rock bottom yesterday against AC Milan. The Frenchman is criticized for his passivity on the visitors' first two goals and overall, he is criticized for not being at the expected level. He was also replaced at the break by Carlo Ancelotti and part of the Bernabeu showed their dissatisfaction by whistling him.

In the Madrid press, we are also starting to get impatient with the level of Real Madrid and its players. Kylian Mbappé was targeted after the Clasico and this Wednesday, it was Aurélien Tchouaméni who was singled out.

“A Frenchman portrayed, represented on the first 2 goals of Milan. A lot of games, a lot of patience and very little or nothing in return but what happened yesterday cannot be allowed in a team like Real Madrid. Frenchman limited himself to watching on the first goal and he did the same on the second,” said José Felix Diaz in the columns of Marca.

“He's been going from better to worse in an alarming way. He didn't have the attitude or the football yesterday. He's not the only one but it's clear he's the one being singled out the most. He can't find the pace of the game and gives the feeling of being overwhelmed by everything around him,” judged the Marca headliner.

In the columns of AS, the other Madrid media, we also talk about a patience that has reached the limit. He only made 3 recoveries during the 45 minutes of play played against Milan, “a low figure for a so-called specialist in the position” criticizes AS.

“But the problem is deeper: during the 4 matches played in the Champions League by the Frenchman, he only recovered 10 balls” adds AS who also specifies that we expect that this evening, more than 300 players playing in this Champions League have more possessions won than Tchouaméni for their team. As it stands, there are 227 players in total, including 9 players from Real Madrid.

Finally, the Madrid daily adds that the statistics are not flattering either for the French international in La Liga: 44 balls recovered and 19 players do better than him in the Spanish championship. He's not the best at Real in this area either: it's Fede Valverde with 63 balls recovered.
