Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti has showered praise on his team when asked about the struggles of Los Blancos arch-rivals Barcelona this season.
The tactician remarked:
“Every team has problems at some point during each season. Things are going well for us at the moment.

“We’ve had six matches and five of them have been away, at tough stadiums. So, this team has balls. Then, when there are problems, coaches have to work hard to solve the problems.”
‘You have a better chance of winning if you’re playing well. But, what is to play well? It can also mean defending well.”
“The key word for me is balance, to do well with the ball and without the ball. When it comes to style, each coach has to look at the history of a club and the qualities of the players the coach has available.”
The Real Madrid manager also addressed reports that some of his players are unhappy over the lack of playing time this season.
“It’s normal that those who aren’t playing aren’t happy,” Carlo Ancelotti continued.
“If Marco Asensio or Isco or Luka Jovic aren’t happy with not playing then that’s normal, that’s good. But Asensio, Isco and Jovic are training well. Asensio, Isco and Jovic will have minutes.”

“I have to evaluate the condition of the players who have played. I’m thinking about making some changes [in the next match], but I need to see [Tuesday’s] training session first. But yes, we’re thinking about making some changes. It’s difficult to pick the line-ups.”
