Vela and Canales have really come on well.

edit: wouldn't you know it. Great finish.

Is that James crying? Really? Footballers are so embarassing these days.

Casillas :lol: instead of appealing for handball he could've at least tried to save it... does seem like he controlled it with his left arm indeed. Controversy!

Shouldn't have let Alonso and Di Maria go. Kroos-Modric and James in midfield is too lightweight and tippy-tappy.

See Di Maria, we at least got a point against Burnley! Yay!

Yes - today especially Alonso is somehow missed... ;)

It was not Kroos-Modric-James but Kroos-Modric-Isco. James is right winger today.

We already have Navas who should be playing.
He should be given a chance by now yeah, but it's not as if Casillas was at fault in this particular match. Also looking at the goals you guys conceded you'd have more benefit from a Cech/Courtois-type goalie who's dominant in the air. Navas did alright on high balls at the WC, but he's still far more of a shot-stopper IMO (he's also quite small).

What Madrid could really do with right now is a striker who is caught offside an awful lot.

Starting him and Casillas are both strange decisions.
Agreed. I think he's made the wrong keeper choice 2 seasons in a row, Iker is better than Diego López but Keylor Navas is better than both.
