Vinicius has played 4,458 minutes, 300 more than Fede Valverde, the second with the most minutes in the Real Madrid squad, with whom he equals in matches played: 51, of the 55 that the Real Madrid this season. If they beat Manchester City on Wednesday in the Champions League, the white team will play, for the first time, all the matches of the season and everything indicates that Vinicius will end up as the footballer with the most games played, because for him there are no minor or unimportant days . Hunger is always the same, luckily for Real Madrid. «He is going to play, I don’t know if from the beginning,” Ancelotti said yesterday about his presence in today’s clash against Getafea game that neither goes nor comes to Real Madrid.
Everything is bet on Wednesday and, nevertheless, Vini is going to do his thing against those of Bordalás: «He does not have any kind of physical problem, he is very well. It is important to think individually. Each player has the demands of him », the Italian continued about how to treat the rest of each footballer. For some it is good to stop; others need to play: «I have spoken with him and he is happy and excited. He contributes a lot and right now his way of playing is spectacular. At this moment, Vinicius, if he is not the best, we are there. He contributes a lot, he is a very decisive player with assists and goals. Now he can continue », continued the Italian coach, without fear that the most decisive striker in his team and in the world could suffer an injury.
Because that is the fear of today’s clash: fatigue and small blows that can leave someone out: “Some players received a blow on Tuesday, Benzema, Alaba and Rodrygo,” Ancelotti listed about the casualties for Getafe. They will probably be more, because you have to save energy. That supposes the opportunity for some of the forgotten ones. The other day it was Mariano. Against Getafe, it could well be Hazard’s momentwho has already been dropping that he is not going to look for a way out this summer despite the fact that his opportunities (and his contribution) have been very few. Add 363 minutes this season, the number 20 of the squad. The 19th is Lunin, with 1,080. Behind Hazard are Mariano, Vallejo and Odriozola. He has played more Casemiro this season with Real Madrid than these last two footballers. Matches like today’s could be an opportunity for all those forgotten about Carlo Ancelotti this season.
Guardiola complains about having less rest time than Real Madrid
The one with the most possibilities is Hazard, because there are more casualties up there and he is one of those who has counted the least in recent times. Every minute that he disputes is an exam for him, although it may not even be that anymore. « The team is going to be very competitive. I’m not going to risk it. We have fresh players. The match against Getafe demands a lot from us against an opponent who is in the fight not to be relegated. It’s going to be a demanding game and we need freshness and energy. The team that will play will be fresh and with energy, “Carlo Ancelotti continued yesterday, against whom they are already selling that Madrid should compete as if something were at stake. Third in the standings, LaLiga has taken too long for him while in the Cup and in the Champions League he has competed as only he knows how to do it. He now he can choose where he really wears.
Fatigue is a fundamental factor. Guardiola knows it well, who yesterday complained about having to play on Sunday in the Premier League and not on Saturday like Real Madrid: «I don’t understand it, but I have to adapt. I can’t fight the schedule. It is what it is, “said the Spanish City coach. “I am sure that the Premier League wants to help its teams. They don’t want us to be uncomfortable, but it’s the schedule. You have to adapt. I would have preferred to play on Saturday, of course, but what am I going to do? We have one more day to recover for Everton, but one day less against Real Madrid,” continued Pep Guardiola, visibly upset.
