Isco was phenomenal by the way. Absolutely top class. Every attack went through him and he didn't misplace any meaningful passes. Zidane is so underrated as a coach, his record is flawless.
Disagree and Isco is the perfect example for that. He would never have played yesterday if it wasn't forced on Zidane, he'd have started a half fit Bale like he did vs Barcelona even though the Spaniard is the better fit for this side
In fairness, I think he wanted to attack the Barcelona fullbacks like how Juve did. Isco is a great player, but he is not a direct threat like Bale.
It's hard to argue to Zidane's win record and his big game performance. His tactical tweaks have worked most of the time but yet you hardly hear anybody mention him at all.
