Courtois and Marcelo are both injured and will not be fit in time to face Manchester City.— Real Madrid Info ³⁵ (@RMadridInfo) March 10, 2020
So, Areola, Mendy, Militao, Varane and Carvajal in defence, Casemiro, Kroos and Valverde in midfield against City. Vinicius in attack. We know Benzema is also starting no matter what. Who do we start on the right wing ? Maybe Rodrygo should get the nod but I have a bad feeling that Bale will start this one. Or maybe we will see Isco start and go with Benzema and Vinicius up front.
Nope, give me Jovic and play a 442. Valverde out right, moving centrally with Carvajal roaming. Tired of all the Jovic is mistreated shit. He's our savior? Buenisimo. Let him save us.
Come on man, why would you try to paint the situation this way? What most people here are saying is that it would have been great if Zidane managed the Jovic situation better so that he's ready when we need him, like now when Benzema has forgotten what scoring looks like. Jovic isn't our savior, but Zidane ********ed up badly. Trying to change this narrative is sad.
That is the tone of the forum. Nah, I said I wished Zidane managed it better. What people on this forum have done is say Jovic should have been given +4 games straight and insult the manager as if Jovic was the difference in our season. He's the difference? Great. Play him every second. At best he save us, a worst you guys find another player to impose the victim label on and attack Zidane with that.
Zidane could retort why is it so bad Benzema plays every second if he can possibly recover him? Both of your side and Zidane's are hypothetical and both extremes. We could just sub more and longer but both you guys and Zidane are equally unreasonable. The fact you guys believe our backup striker can only be effective if he is a starter and the fact Zidane feels his backup striker getting minutes gets in the way of his starter mot being shit only supports that.
Its not only Jovic he is benching he is doing it to Valverde Kroos and Mendy, so of course he is wrong in over playing Benzema who is the oldest of the lot.
For the last time I don't support Benzema playing this damn much and I believe Zidane has made many mistakes. I know how slow some of you are so you still won't get this and bring up this strawman to take out later.
