Casillas, Arbeloa, Sergio Ramos, Pepe, Coentrao, Kroos, Modric, James, Cristiano Ronaldo, Bale, Benzema.

Moyá, Juanfran, Miranda, Godín, Siqueira, Gabi, Tiago, Koke, Raúl García, Raúl Jiménez, Mandzukic.

 

Despite speculation, Madrid without much changes from their Anoeta team, besides Isco making way for Ronaldo and Rodríguez moving to the hole as a result. Coentrao starts instead of Marcelo.

 

Atleti starts without Arda, and Jiménez instead of Griezmann.

Villa unbeaten and beating Liverpool at Anfield without Benteke.

 

But hey ... we had to deal with the international break.

 

:lol: No point in thinking about anything he says.

 

Also NB without Ron Vlaar.

 

Our record with and without Vlaar last season was remarkable. It seems like we have learned how to defend properly and not act like frightened children when someone has a go at us.

Good on you brummie. Always thought Senderos could become a decent defender in time. Might just have worked out for you.

 

People laughed at your signings, but seems the more experienced players coming in has worked. Lambert never lost his ability, just tried to play way too many academy kids at once.

 

Lambert is showing the value of a decent manager, even without having major talent.

I've been impressed with Senderos and Richardson, too, they struck me as extremely meh signings, but one thing we were saying the last two years was that we needed some experience. It has clearly started to improve us.

 

Mind you, the last few years, we've done very well at grounds we're not supposed to get anything. Especially Anfield.
