  1. As well as Bellingham, it was about time.Valverde also needed it, I’m just worried about Rudi now.

  2. I like it. Las Palmas is very solid defensively so Fran makes sense (altpugh he usually plays better with Joselu to target in the box).

    Big big start for Ceballos. Hopefully hes back to his form of the second half of last season.

    Brahim will cook. Awlays great whenever he starts.

  3. Finally some well earned rest for Valverde. Hopefully we win this one without needing to sub him on

  4. Why tf is ceballos starting. Give those minutes to modric or Paz instead

  5. Fran with no Joselu or Bellingham in the box may be a bad idea, but let’s hope for the best.

  6. Valverde not starting for the first time this season.

    Shit..

  7. Carlo after the Atletico defeat “I made a mistake and didnt think my players were that tired. I will learn”

    Carlo 1 week later: starts a gassed Vini and doesent let him rest

    This is 14/15 all over again

  8. That midfield is gonna be interesting. I thought for sure Modrić would start since it’s been a while. REALLY hate to say it, but it looks like the end of the road for the GOAT, unless he does something crazy in the CL.

  9. Can’t wait to watch Fran Garcia crossing to no one, cause no one will be in the box.

  10. FFS Carlo, how difficult is it to understand that you can only play Vini+Rodry with a 9, this fake 9 bullshit does not work anymore. This 11 would be perfect with Joselu, but now Brahim is gonna have to play in some weird possition :/

  11. I hope for vinicius not to lose his mind against Las palmas away fans.

  12. So happy Fede not starting, he needs those rests.

    My preferred midfield would’ve been Tchou Modric/Cama Kroos. Ceballos could use some minutes though.

  13. Doesn’t rest players when 3rd game in 10 days but rests players after a week off…..

  14. I’m not going to lie, I really wanted to see Luka start, I miss him and I don’t rate Ceballos as a starter at all.
