Pepe practiced this week, but not on the ball, so I don't think he's ready. Hopefully for Thursday. Schuster needs to realize that Salgado is not the defender we need on the bench. I just can't figure out what Torres has done that he isn't even included on the bench when Madrid is down two defenders.

Cannavaro was alright, I wouldn't say he was solid, but he made fewer mistakes today than he's shown thus far. Salgado was an unmitigated disaster and Marcelo has yet to convince me that he's a viable alternative at leftback. Heinze should be starting there. Ramos should stay at rightback, I'm not sure why Pepe didn't play if he wasn't injured. Louise, I’ll agree with your assessment on Ramos and Diarra, I think they both played really well.

The weak spot was Salgado, who was simply horrible. Cannavaro was solid, I was really impressed by Ramos (ponytail and all), and Diarra did very well to make up for all of the mistakes on the right side. I have no idea what Schuster is thinking even putting Salgado on the bench instead of Torres.
