Comes off bench in loss Carvajal logged 21 minutes off the bench during Tuesday's 3-2 loss to RB Leipzig.

Impact Carvajal had started in his previous three appearances but Lucas Vazquez was given a chance to start instead. Even in the midst of an exceptionally busy October, Carvajal continues to feature on a regular basis. This gives him reliable time in the lineup but he's not nearly as involved in the attack as Vazquez depending on who gets the start.
