Carlo Ancelotti, the manager of Real Madrid, has given the idea that his players would be participating in some strenuous training sessions in the next two weeks, before to the resumption of the Champions League. They had two rare midweeks without games, and Ancelotti appreciated the opportunity to get some work done on the training field. This is because they were eliminated from the Copa del Rey on Thursday.
Before making this statement, Ancelotti was confronted with inquiries on the current dispute over the goalkeeper position at Real Madrid. Additionally, he addressed the criticism that Aurelien Tchouameni had received, which was a result of his unsatisfactory performance during Antoine Griezmann’s game-winning goal for Atletico Madrid.
The question was posed to Ancelotti as to whether or not he believed that the criticism had been too severe after just one unfavorable outcome.
I don’t have any thoughts or feelings about it. I pay attention and make an effort to observe what is going on in the atmosphere of the dressing room. In addition to maintaining a positive dynamic, we are also driven. Both in terms of competition and football performance, the squad is doing quite well. Every single player is in good health, with the exception of those who have had injuries to their cruciate ligaments.
Because there are no games scheduled for the Copa del Rey scheduled for the middle of the week, we now have the chance to work over these two weeks. “This is very good for us, and this suits us very well,” Ancelotti commented, putting emphasis on the last line of the sentence.
Because there are so many games throughout the season, coaches have very little time to work on their teams. Additionally, because preseason schedules are becoming more and more crowded, coaches like Carlo Ancelotti have had less space for maneuvering in their preseason schedules. This is a basic reality. sometimes, managers are requested to make improvements; nevertheless, particularly those in Europe, there is sometimes an actual lack of time to make such improvements.
