It was expected that the goals by Real Madrid lost with the exit of Cristiano Ronaldo would be replaced by other players stepping up, but that has not been the case.
sb0betThe club brought in Mariano Diaz and this was thought to be enough to help cover the Portuguese's goals, in addition to the club's current players.Karim Benzema and Gareth Bale should be looking for around 20 goals each in LaLiga Santander this season, yet both are not on their way to achieving this figure with six and four goals respectively.Mariano
sb0bet has not scored, and Asensio, who many thought would make a jump this year, was predicted to get around 12 goals but only has one.The further back you go, the bleaker the picture becomes: Toni Kroos and Luka Modric have not scored and Isco, who had 10 last season, has just one. Casemiro has not scored either, while Lucas Vazquez and Dani Ceballos have one each.This is the worst goalscoring season for Madrid since 1990 as they have just 24 goals from 16 games, level with the 1993/94 campaign.Barcelona, for instance, have scored twice as many goals and even Atletico Madrid have scored more than Los Blancos with 25.Despite these statistics, Madrid do not plan to sign an elite striker in January and they are confident that their midfield and attack will find their groove going forward.
