Real Madrid (‎Los Blancos) | Special Thread

Read the summary of Carlo Ancelotti's press for the match against Sevilla tonight.

-The match against Sevilla will pose risks if we aren't at our best.


-The most important game is this one, not the derby; we can extend our lead over our rivals.


-Sevilla are a dangerous team because they have quality players and really compete. They're very well organised, with players who can play on the break and in tight spaces.


-Playing system? "It isn't so complicated. We try to defend with two banks of four and two forwards, and attack with three forwards. One of the forwards drops in to make the bank of four.


-I don't have a lot of players with the characteristics of central midfielders. It depends on the characteristics of the players. If I put in four central midfielders we're more compact defensively, but we have less attacking quality. The job and the idea of play is the same, whether Illarra or Isco plays close to Kroos.


-Bale? "He's giving everything to help the team. Last year he did well, and he's scored in all the finals we've played.


-The team will be more or less unchanged from the game against Real Sociedad


-Coentrão isn't available because he has a small problem in his tendon and he won't be in the squad tomorrow. Neither will Pepe or Cristiano Ronaldo. Lucas Silva will be on the bench in case we need him to play."


-Chicharito? He stayed because we signed him because we need him. I don't need to talk to him. He has spoken to me and told me that he's happy and ready to play.
