VALENCIA vs REAL MADRID Venue: Estadio de Mestalla Date: 03.04.19 Time: 21:30 CET Squad List: Notes: 3rd game of the Zidane 2.0 era Asensio, Kroos, Varane, and Modric return to the squad. Carvajal, Vinicius, and Courtois remain out injured. Llorente and Brahim are not called up. Valencia is in great form. 6th in the table, 3 points behind 4th place and champions league qualification. They have not lost in 16 games, winning 9 and tying 7. Zidane Pre-Match Press Conference: HALA MADRID HASTA LA MUERTE!
I`ll be here for sure tomorrow evening - it should be an exciting game and don`t miss it!! I thought Llorente had a good game so maybe rotation based on a quite different game tomorrow?
I've read the same, though i find that to be even more worrying because he is starting to look pretty injury prone.
No thanks. When Zidane comes out and says it's tough to motivate these players..... players who are suppose to be fighting for their job? Then "lively" ain't what we want.
I meant just generally as a match lol, I don’t want us to get pasted by Valencia for fun. The opponents intensity usually inspires the same from the opponent.
This game worries me. Hopefully FBs are sharp today, Valencia are dangerous when they double up against a FB.
Road game vs a tough opponent. This is the type of game that should be a barometer of where the players are. Today is the day to show up.
Personally would have given Reguilon the start here if I'm honest. Maybe he gets the nod on the weekend.
Honestly I think it’s worth trying to get Marcelo back to his best, he still only 30 and at his best there is no one better going forward, he adds a lot to our offense. Plus we really got nothing to lose at this point. With Zidane and a rebuilt team this summer I can see him regain his motivation and we talk about Isco’s weight gain I believe Marcelo has also added a few extra pounds and it’s affected his performance.
Was hoping for Reguilon. He deserves to start this game because Marcelo player the previous 2 games. I don’t understand why he didn’t let Regui play against Huesca.
Would have preferred to see Asensio on the right and Mariano start with Benzema. Also Regulion start.
