Is it wise to play Lucas Vazquez at right-back? 6-point analysis

• Zinedine Zidane has tested Lucas Vazquez at right-back in Real Madrid's latest inter-squad training game at the Estadio Alfredo Di Stefano.

Vazquez came in later during the game and replaced Dani Carvajal

• This is not something new for Lucas: Rafael Benitez already played the Spaniard there in December 2015 when the Whites faced Getafe.
• Zidane played Vazquez at right-back in 2018 when Real Madrid took on Bayern Munich in the Champions League semi-final (Dani Carvajal was injured).
• Even Julen Lopetegui used him there at least on three occasions.
• While being an attacking player, Vazquez registers 1.1 tackles per game which shows that he's indeed doing some defensive work anyway.

• Thus, playing him at right-back would be a decent option in order to give Dani Carvajal some well-deserved rest.
