Hi peeps, I thought why not create a thread since the match is tomorrow and the pre-game press conference is done. Preview ↓ Possible line-up ↓ Full squad ↓ (thx MiamiNative) Press conference (Zizou & Varane) ↓ Training in Paris↓ Also, three of our ex players might start the game for PSG. Navas, Sarabia and DiMaria.
Also, You know how we used to do the annoying BBC vs MSN thing couple of years ago? Well this year we have a HBB - Habibi. I'll see myself out.

How can there not be one Castilla mid we can call up. That graphic with three mids just looks ridiculous. Anyway, looking forward to seeing Militao for the full 90 mins. This is going to be the first time I see him play a full match.
The Castilla mids that played with us during preseason didn't impress tbh. I think we are more likely to change shape, or maybe play Vazquez or Rodrygo in CM than to play a youngster there if the 3 starters need subs.
Castilla players are subpar except Rodrygo. They are a 3rd division team.. imagine going from that level to playing for Real Madrid in a CL game against PSG..
They miss their 3 best players, one of them being top 3 of the world. If they were fit I'd be satisfied with a draw, but a win is a must now.
No Marcelo, Ramos, Asensio, Modric, Isco, Nacho, Valverde and Hazard returning from injury. Yup we're definitely in a better position playing away from home with just three fit midfielders and no backup lb or cbs. /s
First of all, we are Real Madrid and they are a joke club. Second, no Asensio, Nacho or Marcelo will make absolutely no difference. As to the midfield, we have James in who based on current form is much better than the injured counterparts. The only one whose absence may be an issue is Ramos, but we have more than capable replacements. Don't tell me that the absence of Mbappe, Neymar and Cavani is equal to Ramos, Modric, Isco.
People are really out here comparing Neymar and Mbappe missing the match to Isco and Asensio missing the match in the year of our Giannis 2019.
I wasn't comparing them at all. That's your assumption. My point is we have a lot of players out who are very important to our team and the way we play as well and that we are extremely thin in certain areas of the pitch should anymore injuries occur. Not to mention we haven't had a full squad to get our rhythm going at all so far. We have had a lot of trouble defensively and especially in midfield and that's where we are missing the most currently on top of those frailties. That isn't a hard thing to extrapolate from the post that I made but as always you feel the need to sit on your high horse.
We're missing Marcelo but we bought a 50 mil. Euro player that is available. At this point in time though there is no single player in France capable of replacing Mbappe and Neymar. In the entire league. It's a devastating loss for them.

Defense without Ramos haven't been pretty recently in CL. Conceded 4 against Ajax and 3 against Juve(after away wins with Ramos). But that's why Militao has been brought in for. Fair to say a win is the expectation without Mbappe, Neymar and Cavani for PSG.
