I agree on this topic. Ancelotti is really a wonderful manager. He is great at creating new strategies when he is having problems in a position in his formation. He tries some different players out of their natural positions to see whether it works. For example Bellingham.
He was a CM before coming to Real Madrid but now he is a much more attacking player. We see him mainly playing as an AM and even a winger or striker when there is a need.
I can't say he is a great choice as a striker though.
Anyways, my point is probably Ancelotti can apply this formula for Carvajal's position too. He doesn't need to do it though while there is Vazquez but I'm just saying.
Lucas Vasquez will perfectly fit in the boots of Real Madrid's right back position so I don't think Carlo Ancelotti has a problem replacing the injured Dani Carvajal. However, I think the club will have to get another right back in January so he can deputize Vasquez and play in matches the manager decides to rest Vasquez.
Carlo Ancelotti have in the past shown that he's got the needed experience to manage a top team that's been hit with injury crises and I don't have any doubt that he'll still deliver a great season for Real Madrid despite the injury concerns in the squad
Ancelotti genius will be tested again, with the addition of injured defenders, the lack of rotation options complicating the situation within the team. However, we have seen last season, when Ancelotti managed to remove various concerns, this season it seems he will repeat it again. Most likely, Real Madrid will not look for new players in the January transfer window, Ancelotti seems to prioritize maximizing the potential of the available players. We certainly realize that it is quite difficult to find quality defenders in the January transfer window, because every club will try to retain their players while the season is running. Besides that, Lucas Vasquez can of course be relied on, and it is possible that Ancelotti will experiment with other players.
