Pretty much exactly as I was expecting. I thought Rodrygo would start instead of Vini and they’d switch at 55 or so, but Carlo will probably do the opposite. I expect Rodrygo to come on in the second half to rest Vini.
* Diaz on the right wing
* Arda at AMC
* Rodrygo to replace Vini around 60’
* Modric probably going to have to pull a 90’
* As will Arda and Brahim I think
* I was expecting Fran though, Carlo does as he wishes ofc
Given the circumstances this is the best XI Carlo could’ve fielded.
It’s either a huge win for us, or a pretty boring defeat. We’re also playing with a proper pivot in midfield today, so let’s hope the defence holds up.
Damn no rodrygo. Who is gonna be the scapegoat today?
I hope this match shows us a DM position is overrated nowadays.
We need a masterclass from valverde.
WE EAT GOOD TONIGHT.
Ibrahim need to impress as a starter or he will be super sub for the rest of the season
Woud’ve started rodrygo over brahim tbh. I like him more as a sub and rodrygo defends well too.

Brahim and Arda starting together alongside Vini and Tortuga?

Maybe 4-4-2 with Modric and Fede as MDs, like last season when Cama and Tchou were injured and Kroos and Fede played together there

Some one cooking

Let’s goo , exciting offensive Lineup . Hopefully we get lots of goals in this one

Ardaball finally!!!
I’m so ready to see this in action
I feel for Fede today, that man will have to teleport at this point
The Turks and Morrocans are gonna have a field day with this one
Adra and Brahim gonna cook. Turtle will score today 😎
Rodry supersub hattrick
Great no Rodrygo sigh…
It’s very attack-oriented so hopefully we keep the pressure high and don’t allow La Real space to operate behind our midfield.
VAMOS!!
Damn Rodrygo is benched
Man i miss toni kroos.
Fede’s about to summon Cthulu to hold the midfield line, dw
david ancelloti has to be the one that chose this lineup
Arda on the same lineup with Modric:OO
Brahim ahead of Rodrygo. carlo got new tactics

Why isn’t Rodrygo playing?
I’m sure Brahim will shine
