Waste of a Iniesta. He needs to be in the midfield, because he is too slow for the wing at 33.

not important to be fast, iniesta can do this role because is a great player tactically and technically...
anyway he has not to play all the match...

no other options saturday with 4-3-3 (my preferite)...
otherwise we can play with 4-4-2, don andres as usual in the midfield and leo and luis forwards...
but we almost never played like that...

i can be wrong, but i don't think valverde wants play 4-3-3 with deulofeu (the only one backup for attack against madrid).

Roberto can playon the RW. And has in the past.

I'm curious about what system EV will use against Madrid.

My guess is the usual 4-4-2 with Raki,Don,Busi and Paulinho in midfield with Messi and Saurez upfront.

The next thing is with Paco out, whether that will force him include Dembele on the bench

That Xavi goal in spring 2004 El Clasico was the beginning of everything great that followed later. Personally that match is in my Top 3 El Clasicos in importance.

Yeah, I honestly doubt there's a whole lot to be curious about here. Unless he throws a curve ball with Roberto in midfield and Semedo at RB, the lineup you list is pretty much set in stone.

Rumors will have it that he'll be in the squad. Deulo trained today as well, so I'm guessing he'll be on the bench ahead of Dembélé.

Very likely that Deulofeu will sit on the bench all game. I expect Valverde to play 4-4-2 formation with Andre Gomes, unfortunately or expirement with Denis on the left and Rakitic on the right.
