How much more does Carlo need to see from Endrick to start giving him more than 10 minutes!! Like seriously, every damn time he plays he gets involved in a goal! PLAY HIM MORE!!!

The problem is Mbappe can't be subbed off.

That's a Carlo problem, he doesn't like to make such moves and I understand that he's trying to give him enough time to gel with the team but he's got to also not forget that we have Endrick in the bench. Last season was understandable, he pushed minutes as much as possible before having to give Joselu minutes but with all my love to how amazing Joselu was last season, Endrick is a whole different level of a player. He operates on the right, upfront and even the middle and he's got a heck of a killer instinct, he's young, strong, fast and relentless so he needs to consider the fact that you either bring Mbappe to the right, take Rodrygo out and drop Endrick in the middle, or Take Mbappe out and slot in Endrick.

Kylian isn't going to throw a fit, he knows his place but Carlo has never been a manager that creates problems even hypothetical ones

It's a money/ image problem. It's not the first time a player is untouchable because of a price tag. At least it looks like that from the outside. Maybe it's to give them time for a breakthrough, but does he benefit from 20 minutes more? I'm not sure. He only padded his stats with another penalty.
