This is the one of the few things that I criticize Lucho.

MSN + Mascherano were coming from WCQ in South America and we had el Clasico like 5 days after the WCQ. We should have rested the starters vs RM as we had a lot of points ahead at the time and go full on vs ATM in the CL.

It is what it is.
I somewhat agree but don't forget Johan Cruyff had passed away and there's no way you would want to honor him with a B team in the match after his passing which also happened to be an El Clasico

As much as I admire Cruyff and under normal circumstances, I wouldn't put the B team either, but sometimes logic needs to overcome emotion.

What's done is done.

Could this be a probable lineup?

Kounde, Eric, Araujo, Balde
Pedri, Gavi
Yamal, Olmo, Ferran
Lewy

Assuming Araujo gets released early.
Should be enough to beat them. Of course some of these will need to be managed carefully.

Actually it looks like both Cubarsi and Inigo will be ready so no panic to bring Araujo straight from South America.

That way we can even play Eric in midfield if Flick wants to rest FDJ or Pedri. Just don't start Gavi.

Rest Lamine, Pedri and Kounde. I would go with:-

Fort, Eric, Araujo, Balde
Gavi, Fdj
Fermin, Olmo, Ferran
Lewa

Lamine, Pedri, Kounde all played 120min game. Its better for them to be on bench than start.
We are risking fatigue and form loss going into the crucial part of the season. And we have a lot of games this next few weeks.
Osasuna should be winnable with this lineup. If not we dont deserve it.
