Álvaro Arbeloa has been seriously criticized following Real Madrid's defeat against Mallorca, a result that greatly complicates the fight for LaLiga.
The misstep has caused deep unrest within the board, which does not understand some tactical decisions at a crucial stage of the season.
The gap to the top spot leaves the team with no room for error, forcing all hopes to be focused on the Champions League.
Álvaro Arbeloa and his decisions under scrutiny at Real Madrid
The match in Mallorca has been a turning point for Álvaro Arbeloa within Real Madrid, where doubts about his management are growing.
The rotations surprised everyone. The absence of key players in a decisive clash has been seen as a strategic mistake.
The coach chose to rest crucial players, a decision that ended up affecting the scoreline.
Within the club, it is believed that these types of approaches have been recurrent throughout the season, directly impacting the team's performance.
Florentino Pérez loses patience
President Florentino Pérez has been one of the main critics of Álvaro Arbeloa's recent management at Real Madrid.
While he positively valued the recovery of certain players, the leader does not hide his concern over the lack of consistency.
The team's inconsistency in LaLiga has raised worries, especially in matches where a more forceful response was expected.
A clear message has already been conveyed from the top of the club: the Champions League will be crucial in determining the coach's future.
The Champions, the only path to salvation
There is little room for error for Álvaro Arbeloa. Real Madrid will put everything on the line in Europe in the coming weeks.
Overcoming challenging knockout rounds will be crucial to sustain his project. The path is not easy, facing top-level opponents.
The club understands that only reaching the final could justify his continuation on the bench.
Any other scenario would open the door to a change in direction next summer.
LaLiga, virtually ruled out
The blow suffered in Mallorca has left Real Madrid far from the top of LaLiga, with few matchdays remaining.
The gap with FC Barcelona seems insurmountable, creating a feeling of missed opportunity in the white environment.
The team had managed to stay in the race despite inconsistent performances, but this latest stumble has been decisive.
Managing games has been one of the most criticized aspects throughout the season.

Real Madrid already exploring alternatives
Given this situation, Real Madrid has started looking into coaching options for the upcoming season.
Álvaro Arbeloa's name is no longer untouchable. His continuity will depend solely on what happens in the Champions League.
Experienced international coaches capable of managing top-level squads appear on the club's agenda.
The aim is to react promptly if the current project fails to meet the set expectations.
An uncertain future
Álvaro Arbeloa faces a decisive final stretch of the season, where each game can determine his fate at Real Madrid.
Institutional support remains, but is dependent on immediate results in the European scenario.
Pressure is at its peak and maneuvering space is minimal. The team needs to respond in the most demanding moment.
In LaLiga, the goal seems lost, increasing the pressure in the Champions League as the only path to success.
The outcome of the coming weeks will be crucial for a project that has shifted from hope to uncertainty.
Álvaro Arbeloa's future at Real Madrid hangs in the balance, and only a European achievement could change the course of a season that has become complicated in LaLiga.
