Some good news for Real - Isco's already training with his team mates (even an option for Osasuna). Marcelo and Modric has started working with the ball, recovery process going as planned. [@melchorcope]— Infinite Madrid (@InfiniteMadrid) September 23, 2019
Good news indeed, I know it’s fashionable to hate on Isco but this season he’s looked good, hopefully the injury didn’t set him back. I would love to see a Casimero, Isco and James midfield at some point.
It would be good to see it to see if it could work, we wouldn’t know unless it was at least tried, my gut tells me though, with the ball yes, without the ball, not so much, think i’d much prefer and trust Casemiro, James Modric
If Modric is playing anywhere near his best then yes his inclusion is no brainer but i dont think this line up would be as weak off the ball as you think, both James and Isco have displayed they worked harder off the ball than Kroos for example so if Kroos/James combo could work then i don't see why James/Isco couldnt. In any case i'm not saying this should be our starting mid but i do want to see it tried for a couple of games.
Says Mendy is not training with the team due to muscle discomfort. There's a chance of possible injury. With Marcelo also injured, Nacho could start against Osasuna. Mendy, ausencia en el entrenamiento por molestias musculares. Posible lesión, así que sin Marcelo, Nacho apunta al lateral izquierdo ante Osasuna y Atlético.

Ferland Mendy has suffered a muscle injury in the left leg Mendy sufre una lesión muscular en el aductor de la pierna izquierda.— Arancha Rodríguez (@AranchaMOBILE) September 24, 2019
That’s his second injury so far since joining us, right? Jeez what’s up with these injuries. This one especially hurts since Marcelo is also hurt and doesn’t offer the security blanket like Mendy does. Guess we will see Nacho as LB.
Not too worried about this upcoming game but against Atletico. Hopefully Marcelo is fully recovered by then and on form..
Isco y Modric se ejercitaron con el grupo.Gran García se entrena con el primer equipo.Marcelo y Mendy siguen con su recuperación.— Arancha Rodríguez (@AranchaMOBILE) September 24, 2019 Isco and Modric trained with the group today. It would be massive to have one of them back ready for Atleti at the weekend. Fran Garcia trained with the team, a Castilla fullback. One has nothing to do with the other. Don’t let your perception of Ferland be influenced by Benjamin.
This Mendy wasn't injury prone before joining us, besides we've had 10 muscle injuries this season so the problem might not be the players.
That's what people told me when we signed this guy. Look at his injury profile now. We've learnt nothing from Bale injury issue
Those people don't know what they're talking about then because Mendy played 5745 minutes with Lyon in two seasons, how do you play that much when you're supposedly injury prone? https://www.whoscored.com/Players/296337/History/Ferland-Mendy
So what logic should we have used? That the name Mendy can be injury prone even if he has been rarely injured in one of the most physical leagues? [emoji23]
Mendy injured. I really do wonder how Madrid has injured players so often. What’s that? This is a video of them working out? Never mind what I said. https://t.co/wDB4CmJeaT— Xav Salazar (@XavsFutbol) September 24, 2019
