Slowly and Quietly, Zinedine Zidane Discovered Real Madrid's Starting XI Ideal
The development of Real Madrid may not be too obvious. Slowly, calmly and quietly, Zinedine Zidane began to find his best team in recent weeks. Citing Marca, Zidane may not have made extreme decisions. However, he actually made small changes in shaping the face of Los Blancos' starting line-up

Latest, Zidane made important decisions in the last two Madrid games. He fielded the exact same team in the match against Galatasaray and Leganes. Zidane's decision indicated that he had found Madrid's ideal line-up. Why is that? Menukil Marca, read below, yeah, Bolaneters!

Tinkering with the Squad First, there is Marcelo who was chosen as the core left-back. Madrid does have Ferland Mendy, but it looks like he still needs time to adapt before he becomes a core player. Then there's irreplaceable Fede Valverde. The game may not stand out, not individually. However, he is really important to maintain the strength of Madrid's midfield. Rodrigo Goes was no longer surprising when he got off as a starter. He has proven its quality on several occasions he gets. Then, there are Isco and Luka Jovic who are still the mainstay substitutes for Zidane. The fate of Vinicius Junior is not much different.

Slowly Formed Thibaut Courtois also deserves to be regarded as Madrid's main goalkeeper. He continued to play in the last few matches. There are also some old names that make up the Madrid first team, complete already. Karim Benzema, Casemiro, Toni Kroos, Sergio Ramos, Raphael Varane and Dani Carvajal have proven themselves irreplaceable players. Zidane also believed the names because he already knew them. Then, as a last touch, there was a new Galactico, Eden Hazard, who began to find his place in the squad. Hazard seems increasingly comfortable working with Benzema.

Starting XI Ideal At present, Madrid's ideal starting XI are: Courtois; Carvajal, Varane, Ramos, Marcelo; Valverde, Casemiro, Kroos; Rodrygo, Benzema, Hazard. Then, if Gareth Bale and Luka Modric recover, Zidane will probably remodel the composition of these players. Until then, Madrid is at least stable with the current squad.
