Let's breakdown Real Madrid's team structure a bit.
A lot of vital players in their peak or past it. The good news is that there's a surge of young talent coming through that it fighting for minutes.

Where does Real Madrid's goals come from?
This xG+xA per 90 plot is quite interesting. Benzema has done most of the heavy lifting (Surprise!) but Vinicius has been very good. Also, Bale is a bit of surprise.
Need more from that midfield imo.

Now looking at the open play shot creating actions for detailed look.
Hazard has been the most creative player from open play, when fit. Vinicius shines yet again. Marcelo and Modric are a surprise.
Benzema is just Benzema.

How does Real Madrid progress the ball through passing?
I don't think this will surprise anybody. Ramos leads the chart with Carvajal and Kroos just behind. Our defenders are really carrying most of the burden of progressive passing.

Who are the best ball carriers in the Real Madrid squad?
This time the wide players shine, as expected. Vinicius has been particularly impresses. Bale is not a creative force that he once was. Modric is surprisingly low here.

Which Real Madrid players are more suited playing under pressure?
Isco is clearly our most press-resistant player. Casemiro's improvement has been extremely commendable here. Hazard is impressive too but nowhere near his best.

Now, which Real Madrid players are the most wasteful in terms of losing possession?
The wide players lead these charts which is not a surprise since they have to work in tighter spaces more often.

And finally, who are Real Madrid's best ball winners?
Casemiro is on the top as expected, but look at Vinicius Junior there! His workrate has been immense in both halves of the pitch. Kroos too has been brilliant.
