Ancelotti furious with his locker room after the Clasico?

The situation is tense at Real Madrid, where Carlo Ancelotti is going through a delicate period after the heavy defeat against FC Barcelona in the Super Cup final (2-5). Although his position is not directly threatened, the pressure is mounting, and his future seems to be hanging by a thread. This poor performance highlights a persistent problem: a declining level of play and glaring defensive shortcomings.

A group that does not listen to its instructions

According to Cadena SER, Ancelotti is also starting to increase pressure. The Italian technician is frustrated by the lack of involvement of his players, particularly in big matches. He would have insisted on numerous occasions on the importance of collective commitment in defense, but his instructions would not be followed. Journalist Antón Meana claims that Ancelotti, although he remains convinced of the quality of his work and that of his staff, feels ignored by his dressing room, which directly affects the team’s performance.

This situation echoes the words of Predrag Mijatovic, a former player of the club, who had already highlighted a “clear lack of connection” between the coach and his players after a defeat against AC Milan two months previously. In an attempt to reverse the trend, Ancelotti plans to make changes to his starting XI in the Copa del Rey match against Celta Vigo. Hoping that his group will finally apply his instructions, otherwise he will experience further disillusionment.
