Ancelotti was wrong with Guler

Arda Guler set the Bernabeu ablaze with goals and mesmerizing moves, raising questions about why Real Madrid rarely use the Turkish talent.

Guler scored goals more effectively than Real Madrid's starting midfielders.

In Real's 3-2 win over Celta in round 34 of La Liga on May 4, Guler scored a superb goal, assisted Mbappe and almost scored another goal with a beautiful overhead kick. He left the field to thunderous applause from the Bernabeu stadium. Since then, the story about Guler's playing minutes exploded on social media.

5 goals, 9 assists are Guler's achievements this season. At first it doesn't sound too remarkable until you know that the Turkish talent is the midfielder with the least playing time in the Real squad, with only 1,471 minutes of playing time. However, Guler has scored more goals than Modric, Tchouameni, Camavinga and even outscored Dani Ceballos (who played 300 more minutes than Guler).

The public has therefore begun to question coach Carlo Ancelotti's use of players. When asked directly why Guler has not played much, the Italian strategist simply said: "Arda now is not the Arda of September."

Real fans have reason to regret that Guler was not trusted sooner.

The above explanation implies that Guler used to lack discipline and seriousness in training, which made Ancelotti unable to use him. But since then, the 19-year-old has changed. He is more diligent, puts more effort into defending and actively integrates into the team's playing style.

Coach Ancelotti himself admitted: "Arda sits on the bench very well." The compliment is witty but shows that he recognizes Guler's maturity after a difficult period. And in the victory over Celta Vigo, Guler ran to celebrate with Coach Ancelotti as a way to prove that he understands, has changed, and now it is time to play more.

However, the fact that a player with the ability to score goals like Guler had to wait so long to be a regular starter clearly made the fans unhappy. In the context of Real's previous difficulties in scoring goals, the question is whether Guler could have saved the team sooner if he had been trusted at the right time?

Arda is no longer a potential player but is gradually coming into the light. On May 11 in Montjuic, Guler will face Yamal directly, a new battle between two gems of La Liga and a competition that could last for the next decade.
