onight Real Madrid clash is against Melilla in Copa Del Rey. This match is Solari's first match as an 'A' team manager after he appointed for an interim manager to replace Lopetegui. In his first charge as a manager he announced Bale, Isco, Modric and Kroos will not be in the team instead he called up youngsters like De La Fuente, Feuillassier, Javi Sanchez and Cristo from the youth team. While Carvajal, Marcelo, Varane, Mariano and Vallejo all are injured.

my prediction as per Solari's squad

I think it's not a bad decision. He is a manager and he is testing and trying. We need a player who isn't down at the moment. We need new faces to turn it around. I believe fresh players can bring some energy and motivation in a situation like this. I also starting to think Madrid actually needs more rotation in the middle than anywhere in the pitch. Kroos and Modric seem tired. Those long passes and triangular play seems to be a thing in the past. Solar better learn the Zidane ways ( like how he rotated Ronaldo and squad and got the best out of them) if he wants good results. Solari doesn't have enough to work with but the fact is that is what he have. I hope he will deliver something good. He is very comfortable with the young players so we can hope best out of him.
