""For me, once one period has passed, and I think about the next, I think it's the most complicated," Alonso said. "We want to keep making progress in both competitions. We want to be consistent and perform well. The next stop is Getafe. They're a demanding opponent. "We're being fairly consistent and reliable right now, but we can't get complacent. LaLiga is very tough, and every team will have to be prepared.""
""Jude has been training and preparing for more time since his shoulder surgery," he said. "We need the best Jude. He's eager to play well and make his team-mates play well. I see him happy in training.""
Real Madrid sit top of LaLiga after eight matchdays but could drop to second if Barcelona beat Girona. The only defeat came in a 5-2 away derby loss to Atletico Madrid, followed by a 3-1 win over 10-man Villarreal. A demanding block of six matches across competitions includes a Clasico and Champions League ties with Juventus and Liverpool. Xabi Alonso expects a complicated period, stresses consistency, and warns against complacency. Getafe enter having gone winless in four outings. Madrid are boosted by Kylian Mbappé returning to the squad and hope Jude Bellingham continues his recovery from shoulder surgery.
