“It makes me happy to see that here you all have the ability to always talk about the future, but I have a game tomorrow and I don’t even know what I’ll do on Monday“Carlo Ancelotti knows how to handle himself very well in press conferences when names accumulate that can distract him from the most immediate objectives.
Madrid is in a privileged situation in the Champions League and LaLigabut Ancelotti knows that a bad result can alter a good dynamic and he was ambitious in the run-up to the duel against Sevilla.
“We don’t do the math, we have an advantage that must be taken advantage of. The league is in our hands and every game is very important. The sooner we reach 80 points, the closer we will be.“.
A meeting that will take place in Sergio Ramos, back at the Bernabéu, to one of its great protagonists. Ancelotti has no doubts about the fans’ reception of a legend.
“For me he has been a fantastic captain and an example of personality, character and quality. I have been lucky to have captains of character like Maldini, Ramos and John Terry. “Players like that are always a help for any team.”
Ancelotti recovers Mendy for this match after overcoming his suspension and Rüdiger, who the coach announced will be a starter. “He is very good and will start. Tchouaméni has done very well but Antonio returns and that gives us confidence.”
The big names in future code
Arda Güler is being one of the big names of this Madrid seasonalthough in his case more because of expectations than because of his contribution to the team.
Ancelotti was clear about the footballer’s situation. “It’s just a question of competition. I have to choose eleven players and due to injuries he has missed a lot of time and it has been difficult for him to get into the eleven. But he is very young, he must be patient and now he is at the level to be able to play“.
Another of the names of the week has been Krooswho will once again compete with Germany, an issue that he does not believe will affect his performance in Madrid.
“The decision is not going to affect his very high performance at Real Madrid. I am not going to advise him what he has to do: he is not my son. He has all the mental capacity to choose his future,” the coach highlighted.
