5 reasons why Zinedine Zidane is creating something special at Real Madrid 

#4 Revolutionary rotations

Real Madrid's 'B' team might be better than even Barcelona

The art of rotation is not easy to master. Most coaches adopt it, Zinedine Zidane, however, was moulded by it. Even in Pep Guardiola’s brilliant Barcelona era, the Catalan manager rarely ever rotated to keep his first-choice players fit and the ones on the bench happy.

Zidane, however, needed to rotate. It was more of a necessity given that the club has so many world class talents. In the second leg of the Clasico against Barca, he rested Isco, Bale and Casemiro and was without the suspended Cristiano Ronaldo.

Lucas Vazquez, Marco Asensio and Mateo Kovacic were on the field and the results were just as beautiful. All the three players put in exceptional displays and made a case for themselves to be starters at the club.

Indeed, the Blancos won the double last season mostly due to the Frenchman’s rotation policy that saw Cristiano Ronaldo getting an ample amount of rest and, as a result, staying fit until the end of the season.
