Fellow Madridistas, fans of the women's team, it's time we accept hard and ugly truths:
Just like at FC Porto, true bond and serious implication in the women's team at Real Madrid will only arrive with a new club president, that has a modern-day vision about women's football.
⚪️ El Madrid cuenta con Toril
➡️ El club, que está haciendo oficiales las renovaciones en los últimos días, también ha ampliado el contrato del cordobés, implicado en detalles que presumen su continuidad en el banquillo. Situación a día de hoy

If Spanish women's football depended on Real Madrid Women players to evolve, both on and off the pitch, the Spaniards would still be a laughing stock around the world. And would be far behind the big WoSo nations.

We all respect the sensational work Casey Stoney is doing at Man United Women. But attributing to her the growth of United’s players – something that started happening “coincidentally” after Tobin Heath’s and Christen Press’ arrival – is warping the truth.

After 2 weeks of watching their respective Champions League matches, it was puzzling to notice that, at this late stage of the season, Man City Women and Chelsea Women still have the problems they had at the beginning of the season; that they didn’t make much progress.

In other words, Barça Women players have been strong. Demanding of themselves. And demanding better from those who work with them and from everything that's around them. And they've been leading changes in regards to things that are wrong. Both on and off the pitch.

In this ultra-patriarchal world that is football, Barcelona Women players are out there unapologetically asserting their will and their ways. Making sacrifices. Affecting changes for the better. Paving the way for those who'll come after them, ensuring they'll have it better.

We, the fans of Spanish WoSo, are lucky that Barcelona Women players are out there, doing almost the totality of the carrying of the Spanish game.
And seeing the way Madrid players are, my respect for current Barça players transcended rivalries and became the only one I have.

But this United Women’s amazing run we are witnessing is not only about Stoney’s coaching approach. Because without Tobin Heath’s leadership on the pitch that team wouldn’t be where it is. Heath doesn’t wear the armband but she is the leader of that team.

So, yes, at United Women, Stoney is putting players at the right places and getting them to do the right things. But that personal player development? That’s Heath’s (and Press’) on-the-pitch influence and competitiveness. And credit needs to be given where’s due.

Let it sink in:
Spain scored 10 goals on France and England. In 2 games. For the semi-finals and final of the Women's U17 Euros.
They treated 2 of their 3 biggest rivals in Europe as if they were the Faroe Islands. In a big competition.

On the other hand, Real Madrid Women players are out here going from a shameful act to another shameful act. Both on and off the pitch. And acting cowardly. Like Olga Carmona in the post that I quote above.

She seemed particularly mad in that match. And, in the second half, she went and brought United Women back from the doors of defeat herself. With her attitude and play, she willed the team’s comeback.

I mean: if Olga doesn't have the balls to point the finger at head coach Alberto Toril as the main culprit behind the miserable state of Madrid Women – because he's a man of the club and is protected by it –, at least she should have the decency of not being a liar.

I have a question for the people running Man United Women:
If there's no good English male head coach in men's football, what makes you think there can be a good English male head coach in women's football – where the worst of the worst men in football usually work?
Marc Skinner is a monster and should be gone....taken all the joy of following this team.

With her talent and the way she conducts herself on the pitch, she has been pushing that team to be better. (Perhaps better than it could realistically be.) And, in doing so, she’s been lifting her teammates to new heights.

Stoney and Heath have the will that the ultimate competitors have. And, combined, they’re too powerful. Which can be seen in the fact that they’re turning an ordinary side into a title contender.

And this is why when Barça Women players rebelled against the incompetent head coach of the Spanish Women's National Team, Jorge Vilda, and the RFEF, demanding changes, after last year's Euros, Real Madrid players betrayed Barça players and sided with Vilda and the RFEF.

The same thing happens in France. PSG Women’s playing style and defensive organization are all Olivier Echouafni. But without Irene Paredes’ leadership on the pitch that ship is not sailing. PSG’s resilience and resolution are an extension of Paredes’.

I always talk about how women’s football is changing. And Stoney is one of the head coaches that are pushing the women’s game into a new era. Her revolutionary defense-first approach is changing the way we think about the game. And she deserves acclaim.
Till now, because of the attacking nature of women’s football, I had failed to recognize that, for example, Emma Hayes and Casey Stoney were 2 sides of the same coin. The coin’s name is Good Coaching; and Hayes is the attacking side of it, while Stoney is its defensive side.

This is the situation of Real Madrid Women:

After the Euros belatedly played last year (2022), where the Barcelona Women Spanish players realized they had a terrible head coach in their national team, they rebelled against him.
And months later – after many (unexpected) developments –, the head coach was sacked.

And they're also selfish. They think only about themselves. As long as they're safe and play and get their pay and their sponsorships, they're not willing to fight for nothing. They're not gonna fight for or say what's right, if that's going to jeopardize their careers and check.

To me, the main problem of DAZN's English commentary in games involving Spanish teams is that those people doing it don't understand shit about the Spanish women's league, Spanish women's football, and Spanish footballers. They spew nonsense after nonsense about them ...

However, unlike Heath, Sosa doesn’t have someone like Stoney on her side, a cunning head coach that knows her own strengths and makes the best use of them. That’s why United Women and Betis Women are where they are on their respective league tables.

Anyway, independently of gender, I do think that, if it's for English women's clubs to make the leap and dominate European club football, they need to hire foreign head coaches – like the men's clubs did.
In the particular case of United, I'd say the one they need is María Pry.

Because Toril is fielding Olga a lot – and benching Sofie Svava into oblivion –, she defends him and absorb his blame.

Athenea del Castillo's agent works hard. I gotta give it to them.
If you're a female footballer and you're looking for a football agent, hire Athenea's agent. He'll commission articles in the media for you, and strive to make you look like you're more than what you actually are.

And this is leading people to attribute to her the development of her players. But a closer inspection of players dynamics, player’s leadership and its impacts shows United Women players’ jump in quality being owed more to Heath (and Press) than Stoney.

The Spaniard is tactically good.
And her mindset (of adapting her ideas to the players available) and football (of possession and directness) is what a squad randomly put together – with no plan –, but with the majority of its players with direct football characteristics, needs.

We watched the games of Real Madrid Women since their foundation. We've been watching them since Toril took over the team. There hasn't been any improvement in the team, as a collective unit.
In 2 years with him as the head coach, Madrid Women haven’t evolved – not even a bit. There’s still no recognizable style of play, the team still can’t defend, still can’t build play from the back, the young players that were struggling when he arrived are still struggling ...

Coincidentally, Sosa, in that Betis team, has been like Heath in the United setup. She’s been willing her side to victories and draws. And she’s been trying to keep them in line. She doesn’t wear the armband but I know she’s the leader of that team.

Is it a coincidence that Linda Caicedo was involved – and starred big time – in a game which saw Germany Women lose their first game in the group stage of a World Cup since 1995?

Paredes plays with Paulina Dudek in the centre-back positions. Dudek is a great defender herself. But when you pay close attention to her, after some time, you realize that there’s a Paredes in her. (Jokingly, I call her a young, Polish, and left-footed version of Paredes.)

Meaning that playing with Paredes lifts her. Makes her better. Echouafni’s tactics puts her where she needs to be. Paredes’ play pushes her to be better. She’s learning from a master of the defending arts – though she’s not yet the supreme dark artist that Paredes is.

Since the year Madrid Women were founded – 2020 –, they've never won a title, never beaten a (legitimate) big team, never played shit, never had anyone pushing them to improve.

I wish Real Madrid Women hijacked this move – especially since I hear talks of a Maite Oroz loan out; and Sandie Toletti will surely leave; and Claudia Zornoza is old.

According to

PSG deserved it honestly. A lot of errors today, a goal disallowed & that stings, was such a good header from Leah.
