Real Madrid mad a decision that to some was a shock and some suspected, as their manager Xabi Alonso left the club after their 3-2 loss to Barcelona. Alvaro Arbeloa has stepped in as the current manager, and everyone, myself included is expecting the "New Manager Bounce" to hit this club hard. After losing to their rivals and things being shaken up off the pitch, expectations will be sky high for a club that will look to show up in a big way against the second worst defense in the league. Real Madrid might cover 3.5 by themselves.
