Portuguese coach Jose Mourinho has dropped summer signing http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Fabio-c13152 Coentrao from the squad travelling to La Rosaleda. Los Blancos will lock horns with Malaga CF on Saturday, October 22.
The Portuguese suffered a right knee synovitis which will force him to stay in Madrid. In his place http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Hamit-Altintop-c15652 gets the nod, who was one of Jose Mourinho’s discards in the match against Lyon.
On the other hand, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Valencia-c40863 player has been told to use a special mask to fasten his recuperation period.
Albiol fractured his cheekbone while away on international duty with Spanish national team, and has been sidelined since then.
The duo will remain in Madrid with fellows http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Nuri-Sahin-c28251 and Lassana Diarra. Diminutive French holding midfielder was left because of a niggling hamstring problem as a precaution.
Jose Mourinho will take 20 players with him to Andalusia, including two academy graduates, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Nacho-c27212 Fernandez and Jesus making the final cut. Fernandez has already made two senior appearances for Los Blancos this year while goalkeeper Jesus has stepped on the
pitch once for the senior team.
Real Madrid will look to continue their impressive run of form in recent weeks wining their previous five matches in empathic fashion. They have found it easy to score goals, hitting the back of the net on a grand 21 times, with an average of 4.2 per meeting.
Their performances have not gone unnoticed and even their opponents are jumping on the bandwagon.
"Real Madrid are in good form, they're scoring many goals and it will be a challenge for us to try to defeat them," said Malaga striker http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ruud-van-Nistelrooy-c31966.
Nistelrooy enjoyed prolific time with the Spanish giants, winning two La Liga titles, a Spanish Super Cup and the Pichichi Trophy during his stay.
The legendary Dutch striker said that he will not celebrate if he scored a goal while also highlighting the importance of the match for the former Real Madrid players in the squad.
"I don't think I would celebrate scoring against Real Madrid. It's an important match for all of us who played for them. It will be a great challenge," Nistelrooy stated.
Malaga have three former Madridistas among their ranks. http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Sergio-c33030 Sanchez and Nistelrooy all part of the new look dressing room.
