It would make no sense to play one keeper in the league and one in CL. Copa is okay but to perform on the biggest stage you have to have as much playing time as possible to click with the defenders in front of you.
Real got very lucky this year that Casillas' mistake in the final did not lead to a defeat. And you could clearly see in the WC what he has become without enough playing time.

We need one definite no. 1 (and I hope it is going to be MAtS). You can of course switch keepers, even in the middle of the season, when the no. 1 under performs but then it has to be a clear cut and the keeper who has been on the bench must be the new starter.

Agree.
Not only that MAtS is much younger than Bravo but it seems to me the more talented one. Bravo should start as a reserve till the german would underperform and switch.

Having Bravo in the team might just easy him in well. Less pressure.

Exact opposite actually. Bravo is a world class keeper. There's no way Bravo is going to accept sitting on the bench every week. You can bet that both keepers will be working very hard for that starting spot.


Like I said in the Bravo thread, we should have a GK rotation in our team similar to RM. Both are world class keepers that deserve playing time.

I see Bravo being the usual starter, at least at the beginning of the season. It'll make Ter Stegen work harder and people will take it a bit easier on him.

Don't you know how that worked out for them? Never get examples from RM.

Bartra seems friendly, whilst others looked a bit aloof from him, but then thats too small a sample to really judge. I noticed Rafinha is popular amongst the staff.
