As newspaper wrote an article on the mutually exclusive relationship between Mbappe and Vinicius. Ass newspaper believes that these two Real Madrid's top cards are "geniuses who cannot get along well."

As newspaper lists data, indicating that these two geniuses really can't get along. Real Madrid played 68 games last season, with a total of 6240 minutes. Vinicius and Mbappe played at the same time for 3439 minutes (accounting for 55% of the total time). And their respective playing time is almost the same: Vinicius 4631 minutes and Mbappe 4745 minutes. The above are the basic data that cannot be combined, the actual situation is as follows:

First, Vinicius only passed 15% of the ball to Mbappe. Vinicius assisted 16 times last season, far higher than Mbappe's five times, which is worrying because it makes Vinicius more like a passer. The Brazilian passed 1,315 times last season, only 202 times to the "Turtles".

Secondly, Mbappe passed only 13% of the ball to Vinicius. They occasionally cooperate, but on average, they don’t cooperate much. Mbappe completed a total of 1,413 passes last season, of which 184 were passed to Vinicius. Although Mbappe is indeed more of a finish than a pass, this stat is worrying. They rarely cooperate with each other and rarely understand each other.

And this result has led to both of them being bad. Even though Mbappe eventually won the European Golden Boot, his data has declined compared to last season. His goal efficiency dropped from 1 goal per 88 minutes to 1 goal per 108 minutes, and his goal efficiency dropped from 1 goal per 72 minutes to 1 every 97 minutes. Vinicius' situation is similar: the goal efficiency dropped from 1 goal every 129 minutes to 1 goal every 211 minutes, and the efficiency of participating goals dropped from 1 goal every 88 minutes to 1 every 113 minutes. The two performed worse when they were together, and the data proved that the pair really didn't call.

Vinicius' form has dropped sharply at the end of the season: only scored 1 goal in the last 11 games. His season can even be divided into two stages: "before the Golden Globe" and "after the Golden Globe". The previous stage lasted only three months, but he contributed 36% of the goals. After the Golden Globes night, his performance gradually faded, and the Club World Cup was almost ineffective.

This is exactly the opposite of Mbappe's situation. He started the season with a difficult start, but in the end he was in a state of great strength. He scored 10 goals in the last 6 games of the season (starting from the Copa del Rey final). With this final outbreak, he finally won the Golden Boot Award with a score of 44 goals (including 31 goals in the league). The final overall performance reflects the contrast between the two. At the competitive level, they are like mutually exclusive magnets: when one shines, the other dimly, and vice versa.

There is another data that can confirm this view: Real Madrid played a total of 68 games, and the two scored only 8 games together. Almost all of these games were concentrated in the early stages of the season. Since the start of 2025, they have scored in only three games at the same time: the King's Cup against Celta on January 16, the Champions League against Salzburg Red Bull on January 22, and the La Liga vs. Vallecano on March 9. No more gains were made after March.

How to make Mway and the two compatible is a major issue facing Alonso. He had previously been eye-catching. When he was against Paris, he arranged for Vinicius to attack on the right. But the experiment lasted very short, and the players themselves didn't seem to adapt. Few people questioned the personal abilities of Vinicius and Mbappe, and the talents they each possessed. But the problem is not, the problem is how to make them work when fighting side by side. Ancelotti failed to successfully run into the pair. In the new season, Alonso will try to take over this problem: the two geniuses... are not compatible.
