We saw Ferlamendi start on Friday against Celta and play for 90 minutes, which, given his injury record, is a near miracle.
Mendy has tended to be reliable in these big games against teams like City.

So I think Madrid will be hoping that Carreras gets back at left-back.
I mean, that was a really tough time going back that far for Real Madrid.
There's that period in the late 2000s where they went through, you know, basically a manager a season and they were really running out of ideas.
Florentino Perez left and then came back again.

Yes, the trophies are still to be decided.
