We knew that Madrid often looked like Dallas at Valdebebas, Real Madrid’s training center, when things were not going well. And since the start of the season, the news from Casa Blanca is worthy of the famous TV series from the 80s and 90s. The entire Madrid microcosm believed in a new start after the induction of Xabi Alonso, but the club chaired by Florentino Pérez continues with twists and turns. And nothing has changed since the boss’s choice to fire Alonso and replace him with Alvaro Arbeloa.
The former defender was appointed to restore some order and discipline in the White House. In theory. Yesterday, the radio SER Chain revealed that the Madrid players appreciated the new atmosphere at training, but that they were starting to have serious doubts about their new coach. “Some players we spoke with expected more from the change of coach. They say it’s about working hard, but they live as if they were trained like the Castilla team. (…) There is no tactical change”indicated journalist Anton Meana.
Fran Garcia victim of a decision by Pérez
Well you know what? The radio Cadena COPE reveals that there is another problem! This time, it is the repositioning of certain players which raises eyebrows in the Merengue management. Arbeloa has not invented anything new compared to his predecessors, but clearly, Pérez and his henchmen are fed up. At least that’s what journalist Migue Angel Diaz said last night on Spanish radio.
“Within the club, it is frowned upon that players change positions so much. For example, the other day, with two left-backs on the bench, it was Camavinga who played in this position. It was something usual under Ancelotti and that Arbeloa took over and that’s why Fran Garcia wanted to leave. But the club, and particularly Florentino Pérez, stopped this operation which was practically finalized. The player had said goodbye to his teammates. But now we will see, if Alvaro Carreras is suspended for example, if it will be Camavinga or Fran Garcia who will play. » Impossible to say at the moment, but Fran Garcia clearly did not appreciate it.
