Besides the absence of the eleven internationals who are with their respective national teams (Oblak, Grbic, Trippier, Lodi, Savic, Felipe, Herrera, Torreira, Carrasco, João Félix and Luis Suárez), Cholo has not been able to count on Giménez and Hermoso. Both of them have done individualized work in the gym due to small overloads and they have not participated in the session with the rest of their colleagues.
With the absence of the only two centers that have not gone with their countries, the rojiblanco coach has rehearsed with an alignment formed by a Fully youth defense, with Ricard and Manu Sánchez on the wings and two players from the subsidiary occupying the axis of the rear. In the center of the field were Saúl and Koke on the double pivot and Correa and Lemar on the sides, while the attacking duo was made up of Diego Costa and Llorente.
Simeone has started prepare for Saturday's game against Celta in Balaídos (4:00 p.m.) and will have to wait until Thursday or Friday to have your full staff. So, it will surely introduce some rotations in the starting eleven, especially in the positions of the players who have transoceanic trips. The reason is that, In addition to being very long trips, they will have the added factor of jet lag, which will mean that they may not be in the best condition to be able to play in full condition after just one or two training sessions before the duel against the Vigo players.
