Can Zizou be Madrid's Ferguson?

On 4 January 2016, Real Madrid  promoted Zidane as the new manager. His debut was five days later, when we thrashed Deportivo La Coruña 5-0.

Zidane knows our club inside-out, he did a fantastic job with Castilla team. Before Zidane, no Real manager had beaten Barcelona on his El CLasico debut. The last manager before Ziziou to beat Barca on his Clasico debut was Bernd Schuster in Decmbr 2007. After that Juande Ramos was beaten 2-0, his successor Pellegrini lost 1-0; Mou was thrashed 5-0 in Camp Nou while Carlo Ancelotti was edged out by 3-4 at the ESB. Benitez lost 4-0 at the ESB earlier this season. But Zizou broke the curse, we won 1-2 at Camp Nou thanks to Ronaldo who scored a late winner. We didn't start the match well, we made a comeback. Ultimately this win against Barca became turning point in La Liga. Barca lost 2 Liga more games and their lead to top was cut down to a single point.

Thanks to Zizou we are currently on an 11-game winning streak in La Liga, by far the best this season in La Liga for us. With Atletico out of the title race with a game to go. Provided that Barcelona lose/draw against Granada on last matchay, we can win the Liga title. We have been impressive in UCL also, we made a great comeback against a great Wolfsburg side in the second leg, progressing 3-2 on aggregate. We made it to UCL semi-finals for the sixth consecutive time. We have kept an astonishing 9 clean sheets in 12 games thanks to Keylor Navas. 

CR7 scored a hattrick against Wolfsburg in the return leg at the ESB.

Benitez's failure to bond with the dressing room made the players discontented. Madrid dressing room adores Zizou. Since Zizou has taken over form of some players has been on rise. Bale, Carvajal, Marcelo, even Ronaldo look to enjoy themselves more on the pitch. It seems there is no more any divide in the dressing room. The players and the manager feel like one for some years now. Our playing style has improved much under Zizou. Under Mou, we only played counter-attack; while Ancelotti preferred a possession game but Zizou's style has proved to be a success. Had it not been for Bale and Benzema's injuries e may have topped the Liga by now. Our exclusion from Copa Del Rey under Benitez was hard luck. Benzema and Bale have so far scored 28 and 19 goals respectively. Injuries hindered them from contributing more to our season. Zidane has benched stars like Isco and James Rodrigues on a number of occasions, this shows that he has full support of staff and the president. this has been a break-through season for Casemiro, now starts in important games. He owned the MSN trio in Zizou's first Clasico as manager by cutting the supply lines.Under Zizou, we have played 25 games as of 8 may 2016; 20 wins, 3 draws and 2 losses with a win percentage of 80%.

Xavi branded our performance in Clasico "like a small team" but Zidane took a cautious approach and got the result. I know this is the modern era, managers don't last more 3-4 years, but have your say, can Zizou be Madrid's Ferguson?
