Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti appeared in a press conference, after the 3-1 loss to Milan in the fourth round of the Champions League.
The coach said: “There should be concern, because the team is not presenting its best version. We are not defending well, we are not cohesive, and we have conceded many goals.”
He added: “We lack solidity. In today’s match we had many opportunities, but perhaps we lacked some success. The problem we have to fix is this.”
He continued: “We are missing something on the field, and the team is unable to provide a good version, and this is what happened in the last matches. We must fix this matter.”
He stressed: “We must all think about improving things, and strive to find the solidity that we have enjoyed for a long time. I cannot say that my team’s players are lazy, but that we have a collective problem.”
He continued: “Last year we were not perfect from a physical standpoint, but we won the Champions League. When there is no solidity, we must have more discipline and individual work.”
He noted: “Valverde did not give 100% of his energy. He was suffering from a back problem, but he trained well yesterday. But I think he faced problems in the first half. Choamini? It is not an individual problem, but a collective problem.”
He continued: “When the team does not perform at its best, the coach is the one who bears responsibility, but it is important that we all bear responsibility. When we win, we all win together, and when we suffer and have to fight, we have to do it together to gain strength.”
He added: “The dressing room is in good condition. It is clear that there is a lot of criticism for everything. We have to accept the criticism. We are doing a good job and we want to do better, because it is very difficult to reach the end of the season without making tactical changes to improve things.” “.
He concluded: “We are in a moment where we are suffering, but when you suffer, you unite more, and you can get out of the crisis. We have confidence in getting out of this crisis. The good thing is that we can respond very quickly, and fortunately we have another match in our stadium.”
