The coach of Real Madrid, Zindine Zidane, said Friday that his impending league derby against the Atletico de Madrid “It's completely different” than they lived last summer in preseason, with a historic win for the mattresses, and also the most recent at the end of the Spanish Super Cup, conquered by the meringues in the penalty shootout.
“The preseason game was like that and we neither look at each other nor look at Supercopa. Maana is another day, it is another completely different game for both teams. We know we are going to have a very complicated game and they too. What I hope is to watch a great football game, you don't have to compare anything from one game to another, “Zidane said at a press conference.
“It's a match special for our hobby and we always like to play at the Bernabu. They always try to support us in every game, what we want is that our fans are behind us and that is what will happen tomorrow, “said the French coach.
Thus, 'Zizou' has stressed that its staff has 25 players and that “they are all very well” for any commitment. “Then I have to choose me. The good thing about our team is that, that they are all involved. When they have to play a game, they try to do it well and at least they give everything in the field; and for me it is the most important thing,” He has reiterated.
“As I always say, when you have 25 players, for a call of 18 some are going to be left out and it is complicated for a coach. But this will never change, so the important thing is that they are all prepared and concentrated,” has indicated about it.
“The most complicated thing for me is to leave players at home because they train all week and what they want is to play. But that's why I say that they are all important, I also have the best and what they have to do is be prepared, “Zidane repeated.
“There are many games and the good thing is that the players know it and I am going to have everyone,” he said before analyzing whether the current Real Madrid is better than the one in his previous stage. “I don't know, I'm direct too,” a journalist has teased.
“When I played, they already asked me if the mo was the best… The important thing is that this has always been the case, Real Madrid has always had the best players. But each stage is different, “he clarified in that regard.
On the other hand, Zidane has praised the good run of his pupils. “What I can highlight is work and confidence in what we are doing; it is believing in what we are doing, nothing more. The word is work, good or bad always comes out with work. We have to demonstrate another tomorrow what we are doing lately, “he said.
He has also expressed his opinion on the form of the Belgian striker Eden Hazard. “This week he has trained little by little with us, but the possibilities are still very wide. Anyway, we will never risk with a player“said 'Zizou'.
Gareth Bale It has been another of the most repeated names in the press conference, for the rumors about a farewell of last hour in the winter transfer market. “He's with us and I'm going to count on him, I don't contemplate this possibility“, he has admitted bluntly.” The players have a contract and I will have those who are here until the end, “continued the Madrid coach.
Meanwhile, he has denied that he understands criticism of Diego Pablo Simeone for the bad results of the Atlantic. “But this is not up to us. Everyone knows the situation and I know what Simeone is as a coach, he is one of the best,” he said.
“It's been a while since Guardiola He was the best and Simeone is too, he has proved it. And nothing I think about Simeone has changed. But we all know this situation as coaches, especially in these teams, “he has finally argued, referring to the difficulty involved in directing teams of substance.
