I don't watch Real Madrid too often. Is he scoring loads because they haven't got much of a striker right now? Is it an extreme purple patch? Or is he simply this good and the scoring rate is likely to continue? His rate was significantly lower at Dortmund (though still very good for his position) after all.

As a Madrid fan, his goalscoring record is definitely unusual and I expect it to drop after a bit, simply because it’s impossible to maintain 1 goal/game from midfield. However, I also expect him to consistently score 15-20 goals/season for Real Madrid in future seasons, because his finishing, positioning, technique, and game IQ is absolutely elite.

That’s the thing, he’s occupying the same spaces as a striker oftentimes. He’s not playing as a CM.

His goal scoring ratio entirely depends on where Madrid wants him to play.
