Carlo better put a whole new eleven out there. We have got 4 away goals no way we concede more than one goal at home to this opposition

Even if Khedira pretends to have a new unique injury we should still not play our first choice midfield


Jese to come on in the second half to a standing ovation

i think isco should get some rest, he been running alot lately

He'll get a rest next La Liga game. So he can just endure the next two games, and rest the third.

I am going to be very didsapointed if we fail to appeal Isco's red card, it didn't even warrant a free kick never mind a bloody yellow card

We have a thin squad as it is, we don't have much choice with regards to the choice of midfield imo. Unless of course Carlo trusts Medran to start, that way we could try a 433 with Khedira/Illara/Medran in midfield and Ronaldo/Chica/Bale in attack

pepe should had no fitness prob, nacho as left back and coentrao fill in midfielder is another option.

_____________Navas
Arbeloa___Varane___Nacho___Coentrao
_________Illarara___Medran
Bale_________________________Isco
__________Chica___Ronaldo

Subs:

James for isco on 60m.
Jese for ronaldo on 70m.
Some debutant on 80m.

Carlo said today that Pepe, Ramos, Marcelo, Ronaldo, Kroos and Benzema will be rested. In fact, they may not even get called up apparently.

finally

Maybe Jese from the start ?

He said Jese wouldn't start, but would come in during the 2nd half.

Khedira-Illarra-Medran midfield according to Carlo. Looks like we will play Bale-Chica-James in attack

Carlo really loves James

17th

isco james
james isco

James and Isco on the same field is orgasmic.

Arbeloa is meh even against these guys

GOOOOOOOGOOOOOOOOL

Great game, some great stuff.
Took us a while to get into it though.
Also Jese

Arbeloa by far the worst player yet again. Sell him in Jan, Nacho takes over, promote someone.

Isco
Doesn't matter who always gives a 110%.

Nacho as Carvajal's backup and Llorente as the 4th CB

Isco is rich mans Di Maria at the moment and I'm not even joking. Also Jese

Comfortable win

Isco continues his excellent form. Jese scores on his first game back couldn't have asked for more

besides the goal, he played extremely well. he'll be at his absolute best by February.

I completely agree, smart passes and moves it was brilliant to see. He was so happy about the goal too. It must mean alot to him. I don't think he should play on the wing though. He plays much better in a two man strike force than on the wing feeding the strikers

he'll probably be Ronaldo's and Benzema's backup. We'd have in attack Ronaldo/Benzema/Jese and James/Bale/Isco as the RAM/LAM.

So good to see Jese man

My only fear is Isco is becoming too valuable, almost too quickly. I think if a €50-60 mil offer was to come from a top club, not barca, Florentino would bite.

I have no doubt regarding Jese's commitment, but Isco might leave if he isn't starting come march.
We have just too much young talent. I'm even growing fond of Medran.

Time to make room. Sell Arbeloa, Khedira & if possible Illara.

I'm sure Carlo will manage somehow. 17 and counting. Next up is overtaking barca's 18 wins under Rijkaard.

If Isco rotated with both James and Bale he would be ok with it imo. But at the moment from what I've seen he is rotated only with James. Medran is a good talent, not Granero-like as I thought before. Arbeloa has to be sold next summer to make space for Llorente. Also Khedira shouldn't be renewed.

Iker, Keylor
Carvajal, Nacho
Ramos, Varane, Pepe, Llorrente/Derik
Marcelo, Coentrao/LB
Kroos, Modric, Illarra, Khedira's replacement
James,Bale, Isco
Ronaldo, Benzema, Jese

no way isco would get sold, he's slowly becoming our icon.

btw, had u guys saw that goat tackling in late minutes, he's still keep on improving

his defensive play is not just simply workrate.

That's what I thought about di maria.
He really is becoming an Icon, which is why I don't want him to leave.
Isco & Jese are our future. I hope Florentino sees it that way, cause he isn't going anywhere.
