Ancelotti spoke before dificult match vs Rayo Vallecano: ‘These are big moments in the season and we’ll have to be at our best’
“Vallecas is a tough spot to play every time.” “They need points and will be more motivated than usual,” the boss said.
Carlo Ancelotti talked to the press at Real Madrid City about their game against Rayo Vallecano on La Liga matchday 25. He said, “Vallecas is always a tough place to play.” They have played against a team that needs points and has a new boss this week. It was tough in the past. They are more driven than usual, and we need to be at our best because these are important games in the season that we need to make the most of. There are movies we’ve watched to help us get ready for the game because we know it’s very important for our season.
What Tchouameni does as a center back
“When the center backs get back—Rußiger soon, Militão a little further away, and Alaba even further—Tchouameni won’t be used as a center back.” That’s why we signed him: to be a pivot. Of course, he’s proving that he can play center defense and getting used to his new job. “This proves how smart he is.”
A modriÇ
“I told him about it once, and I think that’s enough.” People who play in every game find it harder to sit on the bench than other people. I understand and value what he says. He acts like a very serious worker who always trains and fights to be able to play. He can play in any game, even the one tomorrow. He can play in any game. He still helps out in the locker room, just like he did when he played all the games. People look up to him as a player, and he acts like a true professional. As always, he is the leader of the group.
About Rodrygo
“I really appreciate how hard the forwards work on defense, since the best players tend to be the ones who don’t run as much.” Rodrygo is not like this. It has been very important for the players to keep a clean sheet in the last two games.
Talk about Mbappé
“Do I look upset or worried today?” No. The next press talks will be the same.
Before games, the team talks.
“The thought came to me at the start of the season. They don’t have to talk to every player before a game, but we recommend that they do. To everyone, including the leaders. Before each game, we pick one of them to give a talk. Our family has started doing it every year this season. It would be nice to have a few minutes for a player to cheer on his friends.
Þda Güler
“He’s okay. The fact that he is fit enough to play right away means that he can help. He now has to fight the other people in the race. “He needs time to calm down.”
Renewals of contracts
“In the past few years, the club has given legends like Modrić, Kroos, Nacho, and all of these players a one-year deal.” This is what the club thinks. We talked about this problem a month ago, and now we both understand it very well.
Line-ups that are fair
“The best ones need to play.” The most important thing is to keep the balance. Value and balance are the most important things. You can be great if you can put them together.
Messi Mbappé
“I can see and hear what took place. I know it’s the topic of the day for you, but for us, it’s the game tomorrow. We need to have a good season end. We’ve talked about the game, watched a movie, and done everything we can to get ready for it. This game is very important for our season. I want to do well in the last few games of the season and try to receive awards. You can think about next season whenever you want.
