Although it is true that the absence of signings prevented Zidane bet on a revolutionary eleven compared to last season, in its premiere in Saint Sebastian surprised locals and strangers by not including Casemiro Of start.
The Brazilian, who during last season was one of the most used players in the Zidane, occupied the bench in a surprising way giving rise to a novel midfield. However, after minute 69, 'Case' It was the first change and it returned Real Madrid to its usual scheme together with Kroos Y Modric.
But neither with one drawing nor another, the white team managed to win the three points. So the doubt now lies in knowing if in Seville, before him Betis, Casemiro it will or will not be from the game.
Subjection, hierarchy and good sense
What the Brazilian contributes is very simple: support to the team in transitions, recoveries and passing game, among other things. But in the simplicity is the complicated thing and, in addition, since there is no one else on the staff to do their job, Casemiro it has become irreplaceable. Hence, his substitution against Real Sociedad was so surprising.
Therefore, before a team like him Betis With a high-quality squad that is committed to a combinatorial football, the São Paulo midfielder points again to the ownership and to leave an anecdote to which nobody is already accustomed in the white team.
Possible change of drawing
What can be given, already with Casemiro in eleven, it is a new drawing featuring the double pivot. Something that does not benefit the Brazilian at all since it has always been he alone who has acted in that position.
Casemiro scores in a game last season
His dance partner could go from Kroos to Fede Valverde, passing through Modric, to whom Odegaard It can 'steal' your site. The truth is that it is still too early to draw conclusions, but there is no doubt that Zidane he continues to experiment with a template that, of course, has many nuances.
