Xabi Alonso is already under pressure for losing both in the champions League and the league, they lost against Manchester Celta Vigo in the league before going to the champions League to lose against Manchester City, they are in the second in the league and still trying not to miss out in the champions League knockout stage. From the performance of Real Madrid I don't know if they will qualify to the next stage in the champions League even though they qualify they are not going to make it to the finals unless they improve in their performance and their players come back from injury.

Well the pressure is being justified and i think people are being too soft on this situation. This is Real Madrid, not a rebuilding mid-table club. Losing to Celta Vigo in the league and then going to the champions league to look second-best against Manchester city is just no cutting it, regardless of injuries. Big clubs are judged on perfomances, not excuses. There is no control in midfield, defensive transition are poor and against elite teams like city, they get exposed immediately. if this level continues, qaulifying from the group alone will be a struggle, talk less of reaching the final.
