Keylor Navas has been brilliant for Los Blancos in 2015-16, but Gareth Bale has drawn criticism for some indifferent form in his third season in Spain, writes Ben Hayward.
Real Madrid hit a stumbling block before the international break as it lost to Sevilla 3-2 at the Sanchez Pizjuan. It was the first defeat of the Rafa Benitez era and leaves Los Blancos three points behind Barcelona ahead of the Clasico clash at the Santiago Bernabeu on Saturday.
In his short spell in charge, Benitez has led Madrid to 10 victories in 15 official games, with four draws and just that one defeat so far.
