Isco a key loss for Lopetegui
Posted Tuesday, October 09, 2018 by Marca.com
The loss of Isco is an important blow for Julen Lopetegui as he is one of the rare players that provides inspiration and has the ability to unblock a tight game.
It is not as though Isco was sweeping all before him but he has a certain magic and a reason to be calm and confident during a game.
At a moment when Lopetegui doesn't have a player that he can rely on to lead the team, Isco was an option that he has lost for the moment due to the appendicitis.
In fact the poor run of Real Madrid coincides with his absence with the operation on his appendix taking place just before the clash with Sevilla. They are now on a four match run without a win.
Isco is a fundamental player for Lopetegui and particularly with the team not performing. He was key in the matches against Athletic Club and Roma where he opened the scoring with a free-kick.
With the loss of the Malaga born player, Lopetegui has fewer alternatives in attack and a player that he can trust thanks to a relationship that they had going back to the national team. Now it is a priority to get him back as soon as possible.
