Morientes on the Clasico: I'd prefer Braithwaite not to play

The former Real Madrid striker looked at the Clasico on Sunday

Former Real Madrid striker Fernando Morientes spoke to Esports Cope where he analysed the Clasico.

"Once the ball's rolling you forget the table and the form," he said. "The last Clasicos at the Bernabeu have not been good for Madrid and that can influence you. The emotional side of it is important in these games."

One of Setien's options is emergency signing Martin Braithwaite. "He's an interesting player for Barca. I love centre forwards and I think the opposition coach finds it harder to defend when there's someone leading the line. As a Madridista, I'd prefer he didn't play."
