“The Koeman thing cannot be tolerated, it is a social problem”, he pointed out about the incidents after the Classical in the surroundings of the Camp Nou
MADRID, 26 Oct. (EUROPA PRESS) –
Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti highlighted the “enthusiasm” and “quality” of Brazilian striker Vinicius Junior, although he said he must try to “always be more effective”, and condemned the post-El Clásico incidents surrounding Ronald Koeman that , according to him, “they cannot be tolerated” and are a “social problem”.
“What I like the most is that he tries every time he can, he has a lot of intensity. Now you can see the quality, but he works a lot, he makes a lot of accelerations and puts a lot of intensity with the ball. He has to improve without the ball, but he can. to do because he is a humble player who likes to work, “he commented.
At the press conference prior to the game of the eleventh day of LaLiga Santander against Osasuna, which takes place this Wednesday (9:30 pm) at the Bernabéu, Ancelotti assured that Vinicius “is focused”, although, due to his youth, ” He lacks a bit of experience in some moments of the game. “
“He is deconcentrated with the fans and what we do is focus and think about the game and not what happens around him. My son? I already have two children. I have the relationship I want to have with all the players: help him, give him confidence necessary and have him focused on the work he does. He has all the necessary quality. Youth gives you a lot of enthusiasm, but sometimes you have to learn, try to be effective at all times, “he commented.
Regarding Osasuna, he indicated that “it is a good team” and that it arrives at the Bernabéu with “good dynamics”, with four consecutive wins away from Pamplona, and with “intense football”. “They defend well and carry danger in the area. The table speaks very clearly: they are doing very well and we have to play well because it can be a difficult game,” he warned.
Del Clásico, the Italian coach admitted that they did not play a “spectacular” game, but they did “smart” to achieve the victory (1-2) against FC Barcelona. “We have defended well and play a fast attack game, which is what we ask of the players,” he recalled.
He confessed to feeling “a bit upset” by the images of a group of Barça fans shaking and spitting Ronald Koeman’s car after the game at the Camp Nou. “I feel sorry for Koeman. This cannot happen, rudeness cannot be tolerated. It is a social problem, not only in football because it is the lack of respect for the person not for the coach. Koeman is a person who works as a coach. . When it is not respected it means that society has a problem, “he lamented.
In this sense, Ancelotti assured that he “really likes” his work as a coach. “There is pressure and they throw you out. I had a coach who said that it is the best job if there are no games. The life of the coach is beautiful, you have to accept criticism, but what bothers is the lack of respect for people. ugliest thing. When you were a child they taught me that if you want to be respected you have to respect. This is one of the first commandments, “he stressed.
“HAZARD WILL HAVE HIS TIME”
He announced that he will decide at the end of Tuesday’s training session if he will give a player a rest against Osasuna in a week in which they will face three league games, including Elche at Martínez Valero next Saturday. “It is an assessment that I will make after training when I see if the players have not recovered from Sunday’s game,” he said.
Belgian international Eden Hazard is “ready to play.” “The important thing is that he has the motivation to work to be able to play. He is doing it and his time will come. He has arrived later than other players, he has had injuries and, little by little, we will have the best version. I am convinced that he will play more than he is doing now. He has to endure, he has all the characteristics to play for Real Madrid, but the coach now prefers others, “he justified.
Of the Welshman Gareth Bale, Carlo Ancelotti said that he received the medical discharge this Monday after the medical tests he underwent and that next week he will start working with the team to try to be available against Rayo Vallecano.
