I Duncan Robinson Jersey think that Madrid, they have dealt very well with those moments and thats why they are now in a great position. There are still many points to play for , but yes, they are favourites to win the league . I think that they are the most consistent team. Thats what gives you the best chance to win LaLiga at the moment.I think that Carlo is LeBron James Jersey a wise man. He knows how to find and to put the pieces together. Thats why hes been with so many clubs, and hes done so many great things. Hes finding his team, and hes able to deal with them so well because he has those skills to deal with the players.

Ive seen that Casemiro, Luka Modric and Toni Kroos , they are safe as houses for any manager, he added.I think that Carlo has found what he needs from them and for sure he will need to rotate them. But they are playing very, very good football, and they are showing composure.As always with Barca players, they have different kind of midfielders, at a different stage of their careers. For example, Nico, Gavi with the support of Sergio Busquets, its a great prospect, but they are in a different moment right now.Alonso picked out Madrid and France legend Zinedine Zidane as the one man he would have loved to play alongside..For sure, I would have loved to play with Zidane because I remember when I started playing in Sociedad, one of my first memories was playing against one of my idols. That was him, he added.To play against him, it was hard, but it was so enjoyable, and he was so elegant, things looked so easy Shaquille O'Neal Jersey for him, and he was such a good player. I would have loved to play with him, but I played against him.
