Ancelotti will probably play Coentrao so Marceloa doesn't get embarrassed.
How would a GBP embarrass Marcelo ?

Coentrao is injured. Marcelo will play and I think he'll be fine.
Arbeloa should also start, we'll just need a solid performance defensively from him and we'll be OK.
Depending on the squad list I expect our line up to be;
-------------------Iker--------------------
Arbeloa----Pepe------Varane----Marcelo
---James------Modric---Illarra---Isco---
-----------------------Ronaldo-----------
--------------Benzema--------------------
Really disappointed that Bale got injured, it would have given us much more options with rotation.
Kroos will definitely need a rest but I can see Carlo playing him instead of Illarra.

Re: Liverpool vs Real Madrid
arbeloa.
maybe ancelotti is really resting carvajal
I could see arbeloa being replaced by carvajal early in the second half.
coutinho and sterling could rip him apart if they play on the counter.

Re: Liverpool vs Real Madrid
Damn we are amazing
Isco ffs
Kroos as usual
Pepe and Varane
Basically everyone bar Marcelo and Arbeloa who are struggling with speed atm but Carvajal is being rested so I don't mind
Hope Ramos forgets his car keys on Saturday and Bale is already out so we should be good

Good game, Outplayed us. Hopefully we keep it tighter in the second one which probably wont happen. Cheers.

Re: Liverpool vs Real Madrid
Marcelo and Arbeloa were great hala. I can't name anyone who wasn't great. Isco standout though, fantastic performance from him.
We weren't perfect though. Defensively we're still a bit fragile. Barca can exploit that

Re: Liverpool vs Real Madrid
I agree valk, we struggle to defend passes between our cbs and fullbacks, Carvajal is fast so can get back in position but Marcelo might be a bit of a worry. But we stopped playing after the hour mark so anything that happened defensively after that does not count
While Barca will punish us for any lapses in concentration, we have gotten our high pressing back so they will find it hard to circulate the ball between their defenders
Btw Isco is truly magic. The close control, the dribbling, the defending. Damn he is like a new player this season. To think that last season we thought he would never adapt as LCM. Hope Carlo starts him permanently from now on

Re: Liverpool vs Real Madrid
Carlo on Ronaldo's substitution
Dat subtle dig at Lucho
"It wasn't agreed on earlier, but we did it to avoid problems. I didn't ask him before taking him off. I didn't need to. It's impossible to ask a player when he's on the pitch. Now we all have to do everything we can to recover from this match. Cristiano worked really hard, he sprinted a number of times and I preferred to take him off to avoid risks."
