He added: “Mbappe and Vinicius understand each other well and will get better with time. Offensively we will have no problem. We have never had a problem offensively and we will not have one this year as we have the best players in the world.”.
The veteran Italian coach (65 years old) explained: “Vini and Kylian can change positions as the game goes on, but Vinicius will start on the left.”.
He continued: “In my opinion, Kylian is playing very well, he hasn’t scored goals but he is dangerous, I think there is no problem with his adaptation to the team”.
Regarding his concern about the points gap with Barcelona, Ancelotti said: “We are not happy, but not because of the difference, but because we did not play well. The season is still very long, we will compete until the end, this is something I have no doubt about.”.
Real Madrid have drawn twice in three games, starting their title defence with a 1-1 draw against Real Mallorca in the opening game, before beating Valladolid 3-0, but then stumbled again against hosts Las Palmas 1-1, dropping four points out of six and taking fourth place with just five points.
