Real Madrid are in another comparative slump and, again, it appears to be partly self-inflicted.<\/p>\n
Because the decision to sack Carlo Ancelotti, just a year after he won La Decima, is one which is seemingly coming back to haunt them.<\/p>\n
Zinedine Zidane is now at the helm and we wonder how long a notoriously short-tempered Real Madrid board will keep him there. If he is still manager at the start of next season he will be doing well.<\/p>\n
