not only for his pace. he's also very aggressive, in a good sense

Spain have no chance at the WC if Alba and Carvajal are the fullbacks. Specially since Alonso and Busquets are likely to be the DM pivot

Azpilicueta is a given atm considering Arbeloa is out. If I were VDB I would call Carvajal, Azpilicueta and Alberto. But knowing him, he'll take Juanfran, Azpi, and Alba

that's probably because
1) alba has proven a fantastic resource for spain at euros level already
2) moreno has no experience and proved right about 0
3) Juanfran is having just as good a season as any of those RBs even if he isnt talked about much, he is mature and has experience with that group already.
4) Carvajal like moreno, even though he has played well vs bayern and barca last week, had been a liability in similar games before and is also an unnecessary gamble. his time will come.

there isnt really much to argue about his choice of fullback.

that could also be said about alba in 2012.

in 2012, spain had no left back, and taking an attacking player like alba was a good way to compliment Arbeloa and to add something to the team. Right now, they have Azpi at RB, who will be backed up by either arbeloa or juanfran. There is no reason to gamble with carvajal.

spain's back four should be :

juanfran-ramos-martinez-azpilicueta

All this talk is frivolous when we know that the dormant walrus in Vicente Del Bosque only tends to scout Atletico, Barcelona and Real Madrid, narrowing his perspective on the better prospects for our line-up. Azpilicueta has been overlooked by Vicente for years so expect nothing there.

Vicente, like Lippi believes in team unity and chemistry through understanding of playing with each other week-in-week-out and in the bonds they share as a whole through the acquiral of winning trophies together. Thus why scrubs in the form of Pique, Alba, Arbeloa are chosen over finer candidates.

Now that Carvajal has established himself and that Vicente puts immense trust in Carlo, expect Arbeloa to be replaced for our NT within Carvajal mirroring Jordi Alba on the right flank, though in a more space capitalization role similar to what Ramos was when RB for us.

That's what we have to live with despite him racking the trophies yet the decline is nigh as experienced by the past year and Del Bosque's Lippilism is reaching 3rd degree.

Carvajal dyed his beard.  

dafuq

Guy has 5 CL's to his name and is still only 30

At this rate, he could become the most decorated player in this competition

Monster performance from him today

Couldn't believe what I was seeing tonight. The guy put on a performance of his prime years.

Monster performance.

His problem is he is injury prone. When fit he is still first class. Before the game the circlejerk was all about Trent and he showed him how to play football today lmao.
