3 winners and 2 losers from the José Mourinho era at Real Madrid so far

The Real Champs writer Ben Gray analyzed the squad dynamics under manager José Mourinho following Real Madrid's eight-match winning streak across all competitions. The writer designated Yan Diomande, Arda Güler, and Dean Huijsen as the primary winners of Mourinho's tenure, while viewing Vinícius Júnior and Trent Alexander-Arnold as the notable losers.

Gray argues that Diomande and Güler have provided necessary balance during an eight-game run that included a Clásico victory and a 3-0 win against Valencia. Conversely, the writer suggests Alexander-Arnold has lost favor with Mourinho preferring Fede Valverde at right-back, while Vinícius Júnior has struggled for form since signing a six-year contract extension.
