The worst thing that happens with Real Madrid today is that, in a very short time, it has become a boring institution. Not even dramatic, just boring. No confluences around a 'Happy Few' harangue. Without the vibration that of when it was verticality and rock and roll and there was also a military and moral hegemony against which to make Spartacus . It is hard to remember that there is a match. It is hard not to choose another plan when there is one. It is difficult to find a purpose for the future apart from the new sidereal stadium, that UFO perched from which it seems to be going out, disoriented, a Pancho Puskas that they abducted in 1958.

Of course, I don't speak for everyone. The sale of t-shirts will continue unstoppable. Tourists will continue to ask the taxi driver to detour to pass through the Bernabéu. Undoubtedly, Madrid fans will abound for whom the stadium experience will still be full of stimuli. But even these should recognize that there was, in the past nothing remote, moments much more exciting than the current one. It is possible to identify two. The Mou wars that, for better and for worse, stirred up Real Madrid with one of the greatest sapphires in their history and filled the speech with resignations against which they had to rebel. And the last succession of European Cups spiced up with the continental export of the derby against Atleti.

The departure of Cristiano , bearer himself of a formidable and angry competitive tension - like that of Di Stéfano - that no one in the field has replaced, dated the moment from which Real Madrid became a payroll package. In a character without agitations or incentives that does not get up early, because for what. The stimulating effect of coming from a time of failure that demands their redemption does not even operate, because the truth is that the institution was left there with the binge of orejonas and this covered the ugly custom of no leagues and throwing them in September. The Atleti, after two gigantic frustrations in European finals that could have condemned the dispersion of any project, is again vitaminized and full of ambition in a rush that finds its best promise of future in Joao Felix . And, above all, in the desire of Joao Felix, who has ahead of him the life that the Madrid vertebral line has behind.

In this madridista abulia participates the directive, which seems itself demotivated, "to the shit of all of us" as President Figueras said before hitting a fright to Paris. Just when he was asked for a reaction after the grim previous season, the board promised in March I don't know if a revolution, or a turnaround, or a re-foundation. Something like that. In March. After six months of listening to a drum roll like that of the equilibristas, the Madrid fans had closed the market without any of that transforming depth. Apart from Hazard , the most notable thing, during the summer, of the supposed Madrid reconstruction has been the 'mobbing' practiced against one of its biggest stars, a repetitive scorer in the finals. Harassment that included the personal discredit orchestrated against a supposed portento of a fair, half-booby barrack, who just wanted to play golf and catch sea bass.

In this persecution Zidane participated, the thaumaturgical being in which an unusual wear can be seen since his second coming. The magical coach who was the European Cups in cereal packages, corroded by the unhealthy of a sterile environment, is suddenly perceived as a nepotist who cleaned posts for his children, like a clumsy man who can not see players, as a Limited coach that neither matches reads correctly. This wear of a figure so legendary and has won so much is enough to describe the poisons and curses that, driven by boredom, degrade tired institutions. The League has just begun and Real Madrid is already getting long.
