Team like Real Madrid should have good players or worldclass players in their bench as backup for such situation when injuries are coming to affect the starting eleven players, but they literary don't that enough quality players in their bench which is why some of their fans are already making that as an excuse in case if they lose their match against Barcelona.
If someone come and say that Madrid don't have squad depth, their fans will come for that person, and it is a plain truth they need to believe in; moreover, their defense is not as strong as they may expect which is why they are looking for possible solutions before the January transfer windows; but if they continue like this, they will definitely suffer at some points because some players will surely get injured.
Real Madrid has the 7 most valuable players in the world in its squad. They are all on the list of the 17 most valuable players and it is fitting that Real Madrid is called the team most likely to win many titles this season. They have Vinicius, Kylian Mbappe, Bellingham, Federico Valverde, Rodrygo, Camavinga and Aurélien Tchouaméni on the roster, so quality of play can be expected.
The players on the bench may not be the players on the top 20 most valuable players list, but they are quality players. Real Madrid always prioritizes quality even though the price is high, so there is no comparison with Barcelona at the moment. The El Clasico match is clearly very exciting to look forward to, but we know who is the favorite to win regardless of the result.
