“We face a very competitive game against Real Sociedad and the team is doing well,” explained the coach.
Carlo Ancelotti He appeared at a telematic press conference before the media in the preview of the game that will be played on Real Madrid against Real Sociedad at the Reale Arena, corresponding to the 16th matchday of League (Saturday, 9:00 pm, Movistar La Liga): “Real Sociedad is a team that plays football very well, has defensive quality and is organized. They are strong and I am delighted to have this exam in a fantastic stadium. We will try to do our best to win ”.
“The next matches are important. We have an advantage with one more game. The League it’s going to be open for a long time. If we do well in these games, it can be an advantage and it can be managed in the future. But it will not be so. This is one League very even until the end for the games that I watch and that we play ”.
Tiredness
“There is no alarm. We are evaluating the physical condition of the players in each game. For a short time, the squad has been ready. He’s back Bale to work with the team, but will not be in the call. Next week he will be ready to play. Ceballos he is working alone in the field. There are players who play more, where we have to put the focus ”.
Changes
“I see the team quite well and in training today I have not seen any fatigue. We have only played two games with the same eleven, against Shakhtar and Barcelona. I have made some changes like for example Nacho against Granada; Mariano against Elche; and in front of Osasuna it was camavinga. I have alternated a lot with Rodrygo and Asensio; I have also done it with Lucas Vazquez, Carvajal and Marcelo. I have made some changes ”.
Focused on the Royal Society
“We are not thinking about Inter and Atlético because now we have a very competitive game against Real. The focus is there. I’m going to put the best line-up to win the game. Yes housemiro It will help us in the game, nothing happens to put it on and have one more card or not. If he is going to play, he is cautioned and does not play against Atlético, nothing happens ”.
Rotation in the center of the field
“I don’t know if they can play those three games in a row. I have to think if Kroos, Modric and housemiro they can play against Real. That is what I am thinking. It may be that tomorrow Modrić sleeps badly and won’t wake up well. Then I’m not going to put it in. “
Hazard
“Hazard He has not yet done what everyone expects him to do. He can do it. He is in good shape physically, he has trained well with the squad and can play the next games ”.
Footballers turned coaches
“One who has played in the center of the field has more advantage when it comes to being a coach because he is a physical player, with quality, who has to see the game well and know how to position himself. Xabi Alonso he was one of the greatest midfielders I have ever had. He was very smart, with a fantastic footing and extraordinary professionalism. If I had to bet on a player to be a coach, I would have bet on him ”.

“If I could choose which player to be I would not have liked to be a midfielder, but a forward. For example, I would like to be Vinicius, Benzema or Haaland. A center forward, who scored a lot of goals, because during my career I didn’t score many goals ”.
Courteous
“There is always a wake-up call because the defensive aspect is very important. Courteous he has saved us and he has done very well in the last two games. For this reason, we have conceded only one goal in the last few games. With Courtois’ performance we were quite solid defensively ”.
Spare parts
“We have spare parts for Vinicius Jr., Benzema and housemiro. The three of them are doing very well, especially the two forwards. When a striker scores goals it is difficult to remove him to avoid breaking this dynamic. Casemiro is different because it is the balance of this team and the balance that he gives in this position is very important, such as scoring or saving a goal “.
“Behind Casemiro there are players with a lot of quality like camavinga O White, but they do not have the experience that Casemiro has at the moment. It may be possible in the next matches to give Casemiro rest. Young people bring a lot of enthusiasm and energy, but they don’t have the experience that he has. This is the reason why these three footballers have played more ”.
Vinicius Jr.
“The strongest players are going to have a special observation on the part of the rival. The proceedings against Vinicius have been correct. The entrance to Monchu was a bit aggressive, but not particularly serious. Because of what he’s doing now, the defense is more special. It is not at all dangerous for their integrity ”.
Defense improvement
“The last games we have suffered. We have to improve the positioning. We have had bad luck with Rafa Mir’s goal because it was due to a blocking of Mendy a militanian; You can pass. What we are doing, we are doing well. Courteous He has helped us a lot in the passing game ”.
Isco
“I have not had any quarrel with Isco. He has not warmed up in the last games because we were winning. He needed to put in a more defensive midfielder like camavinga O Valverde. If we don’t have an advantage on the scoreboard, I’m going to put in a forward, a midfielder or a more offensive winger. If we are winning and we need to defend, I will put another characteristic on the field ”.
Mbappé
“Children have to chase the dream they have. I had the dream of playing one day in Serie A and I fulfilled it. “
Inter de Milan
“I don’t have time to watch Inter’s game against Roma. Inter are doing well at the moment. Roma are having some difficulties because they are in a moment of transition. Mourinho has brought a lot of enthusiasm. Inter is a more complete team ”.
