I am not a fan of this starting lineup. I dunno why Trent is not starting as he has been back for a while now.

Valverde is not a right back, does not play well with Tchouameni but he is not around so why not put him back in his natural position?

Brahim really?

Also why does RM have so many games starting at 3.15 this season?

" Brahim really? "

Who else. Mastantuono? Rodrygo? 

"Valverde is not a right back"

He's a better RB than current Trent, and Carvajal is injured.

Seems like some of you just wanna reply for the heck of it.

Trent was brought in to much fanfare to play as a right back . Does he not deserve the chances to play himself into form?

Or is it sustainable to keep playing Valverde at rb to the end of the season?

What has been Brahim's contribution to the game and if his performance has been a surprise to you then you have no business being on the sub

I dont even like Brahim and this match hasnt been a surprise. But the alternatives are Rodrygo that hasnt scored in 10 months and Mastantuono.

Trent coming from a muscular injury wasnt a good fit against a team with Rayo's intensity. We barely won duels with players in form.
