Well, these were Carlo Ancelotti’s comments ahead of the match against Real Sociedad. Thank you very much for following Real Madrid news in Spanish newspapers.
Carlo’s opinion on Kroos
Is Kroos’ absence his fault?: “Kroos rested against Alaves, it’s not a matter of fatigue. Sometimes there’s bad luck, we have to live with injuries. It’s an important period of the season, but we don’t have many injuries now, we have very few. Alaba stopped for seven days for his injury, Kroos will stop for five or six days. This type of injury at this point means that we have handled the physical aspect well. We are convinced of that.” About Camavinga: “It’s fine, he’s excited, motivated. The pivot position costs him a little more, it’s a position where the tactical aspect is important, positioning. I’ve forced him to play there a bit because I think he can. Tomorrow is an option”.
Rotations with the line-up
Few rotations: “Perfect I have not done, but not as bad as some may think. We have done quite well, it could be done better, but also much worse. I am happy with the work we have done with the physical trainers. We have had casualties Like all teams, we reached a point in the season where we wanted to be. We are a little disappointed to be out of the Copa del Rey, but it was a very particular moment, with casualties, with injuries, but the reality is that we have six points ahead, we have to fight until the end. We can recover a minimum result in the Champions League, we have that illusion. And we’ve gone four games without conceding a goal in the League, that means solidity”. Has the League lowered the level? : “It’s true that now you don’t need so many points to win the League. You can see how the big ones have gone down or the little ones have gone up, that the League is more even. I see organized teams that control the details. La Liga has improved”.
