“We’ve discussed it. Hopefully, we can win tomorrow. There’s a first time for everything.”
Are they worried that the team might not accept what they want to implement?
“It’s a process. All changes require a process and it doesn’t happen overnight. If we look at the last three matches, there are some things I didn’t like. We’ve discussed them and analyzed them, but if we look back, there have been good moments and we’ve done good things. We’re going to try to carry forward the intensity and quality of the team’s play, which has shown a good level and has enabled us to win matches. We’ve been more consistent with the ball in certain phases of the game. And without him, we have had some bad matches. Now it is very clear what we talk about, but sometimes it is better because we talk to each other and agree on what we want.

“It’s as important as the football ideas, tactics and fitness work. You have to get the best out of the players and make them feel as good as possible. It’s a process that has its ups and downs, but you have to know how to navigate it well. It’s essential real Madrid And in any team.”
“All experience helps, and knowing great players, who have collective and individual ambition to perform well, helps you at the moment. The atmosphere and things that happen in the dressing room and the attitude you have to have is not that different.”
Six months as coach of Real Madrid
“It’s going about as well as I expected. It’s a very demanding job, with good moments and other moments when you need focus and connection. Moments when you have to respond, and we’re in one of those moments right now. I’m enjoying the whole thing, everything that’s involved in it, and it’s an honor and a privilege, as I said on day one and will continue to say.”
“Of course, it’s demanding, but I’m certainly not the first real Madrid Coaches who have had to deal with these situations. I think a lot about how carlo, Memorandum of understanding Or pellegrini Will handle it, because these situations are nothing new and you need to know how to deal with them. We are demanding and self-critical, as we should be. We are not happy with our recent performance. We are also aware of our position in both league and this Champions LeagueAnd where we want to be. I’m having fun putting it all together.”
Is it difficult for players to get along?
“I’ve had to spend a lot of time with great players and big personalities who are demanding, professional and always want the best. They react this way because it’s normal for them and it helps them become as good as they are. It’s a privilege to be there real MadridWhere you have players of that calibre, and then you have to connect with them.
“They are the most important players in every team. We have an important role in preparing them and taking decisions, but ultimately, what matters most is the quality and attitude of the players and how well prepared they are. It will always depend on them. We are with them and have to be with them.”
Do they think footballers have the power to fire coaches?
“You have to have a lot of respect for the players, for the teams and how they prepare. I don’t want to talk about it and I’m not going to because I know what the dressing room is like, the moments you have to endure and how you have to deal with the noise from outside. We try to talk about it, we try to deal with it because these are the situations that come into the club, but we can’t let them distract us from what. It’s how we train, how we interact with each other, and how we deal with those moments when we know the consequences, but we can’t let them derail us from the path we want to take.”
Is he surprised that his position is being questioned?
“I think this is not the first time you have asked this question, but we know what the situation is and where we stand in both LaLiga and this Champions LeagueI worry about what will happen in Valdebebas, on the field tomorrow, the preparation with the players, and I don’t pay much attention to anything else, We are not even 100 days here and it will continue to evolve individually and collectively, personally and in terms of football, There is still a long way to go, Sometimes it’s a straight line and sometimes it’s a curve, like these three results we didn’t expect, We are aware of this and are self-critical, Tomorrow, we have another opportunity and that is our focus,”
Has he received any messages of support from the club president?
“It’s not necessary. I spoke to the President this morning and I speak to Jose Angel often. Day-to-day business is what keeps us in touch, and today I spoke to the President this morning.”
