Real having no games since last Sunday until we play them next week Tuesday while we have Villa and Palace game which both can bring new injuries and more tiredness. that away game will be brutal sick hard and if Ancelotti learns anything from last year tie he will want to have some advantage for second leg.
Villa and Palace are both must win game, simply anything less than 8-1-0 or 9-0-0 run are likely not enough for the title but going in with best 11 into these games reduces our chances for the Real away leg imo while they relax and get ready for us.
KDB cannot even play imo every 3 days, he started Arsenal game, if he starts today I assume he sits out Palace game to be ready for Real.
but lack of creativity was an issue even with him in the side vs Liverpool and Arsenal so we really need others to create some goals/assists. really time to step up for our wingers.
