The Daily Merengue is a place where you can feel free to discuss all things football. Do not be alarmed by the overt RMCF bias. It’s in the name!
Shoutout to the mods who do a fantastic job, Felipejack, Kung_Fu_Zizou, Juninho, NeRObutBlanco and yours truly, Valyrian Steel.
Gameday!!!
All I’d like is to come out of this injury free. Kepa is expected to replace Lunin for this one.
❗️Real Madrid & Barcelona will receive €6M for participating in the Spanish Super Cup. Atléti will receive close to €3M & Osasuna will receive just over €1M.
Clubs who reach the final will receive another million & the club who wins will receive €1M more. @marca pic.twitter.com/3ojTsgcMQg

Valyrian’s Preferred Lineup
Kepa – Mendy – Nacho – Carrillo – Tobias – Kroos – Modric – Paz – Guler – Ceballos – Joselu.
Carlo pre match ‘scary’ comments.
| Ancelotti: “Tomorrow’s game is very important. We want to win this tournament. The players are ready. I think we can play a good game. Atletico hurt us in September, we have to remember it.” pic.twitter.com/CEFvF9hf15

No it’s not Carlo. But I get that you have to say that in the press conference.
Ancelotti: “Valverde-Kroos? We can change this duo. Camavinga and Tchouaméni are back. I have more options now.”

Panic intensifying.
I would do it again.
Valverde: “That tackle on Morata? I would do it again of course. You have to use your brain obviously, if the team needs help, I would do it again surely. Whatever to help the team.”
