    "Fortunately" for us, it's just him. Everyone else tested negative on both tests.

    LV has trained with the team but could be still suffering from the injury.

    We still have Mendy who played well at RB for France but was shaky for us in the match against Huesca.

    Probably Mendy with Marcelo on the left. Ugly

    Maybe it's time for a 3-5-2.

    Varane-Ramos-Mendy
    Rodrygo-Valverde-Casemiro-Kroos-Vincius
    Benzema-Hazard

    I'd rather have Modric in there instead of Vinicius or Rodrygo but otherwise I kind of agree.

    It says that LV is available so I’m guessing he starts despite not being 100%.

    So they will only miss 1 or max 2 games. They should both be clear to face Inter.

    Casemiro will be missed more than Hazard tbh. We have no direct replacement for him.

    Bad news but expected,more and more players will get it ,it is what it is.

    I wish them speedy recovery but honestly they wont be missed aganst Valencia.

    Casemiro is in terrible form and he needs a rest,due to this he will rest for 2/3 weeks.Hazard is not ready to play,it was obvious against Inter .Vinicius and Rodrygo deserve to play this game.

    Best time this could happen though. They'll likely just miss one game. Casemiro needs a break, he would have played 180 minutes for Brazil.

    Hazard got kicked vs Inter. I didn't want to push it.

    The only positive is neither goes on this international break and get some much needed rest. Just gotta win tomorrow.

    I agree with @J-Mezzy and @Zidane05

    Best time for both to get it. We can reward Vinicius and Rodrygo with a start or even play 442 with Odegaard, Valverde, Modric and Kroos.

    Our schedule might benefit us because we play all of the tough away matches in the first half of the season. Without the 12th man, the away matches are probably easier. We are away against Villarreal, Valencia, Real Sociedad, Barcelona and Sevilla in the first half of the season. In the Spring, we might see the return of the fans. They might have to play against us away with our 12th man.

    Atletico Madrid is the only traditional good team that play against us at home in the first half of the season.

    Marcelo was never in the starting team though. Zidane just played him because Mendy couldn't play.

    Also Idk what resting Zidane is supposed to accomplish. His performance isn't shit because of injury or fatigue.
