Carlo Ancelotti gave great interview to the Spanish National Radio "RNE".
Going to share the summary.
Carlo: "Isco is another option for midfield. I'd like to try him out there. The only thing I'm worried about is the defensive aspect but he's an option just like Khedira and Illarramendi".
Bale, Benzema and Cristiano? "Everyone knows that those three will almost always play, when they are fit. They give us a lot of quality and strength".
"Modric? Of course he's sad but he's going to get better with each passing day. After that, he'll star thinking about his recovery. These things always happen in football and they are sure to happen".
Khedira?"The club wants to renew his contract because he's a reliable, focused, professional. There's not problem in this regard".
"Do I see Atletico fighting for La Liga? Yes, that's for certain. They aren't going to be fighting with Valencia or Sevilla like Simeone says. I have to think that they are going to be fighting for La Liga with us and Barcelona".
"Barça is trying to change their style a little and the players need time to change. In regards to the quality of their midfielders, they have extraordinary quality".
"Messi? 3 or 4 years ago they were saying Cristiano would leave too. There are moments in the race that players go through various circumstances, but it should not be trusted because things can change at any time."
My new contract? "I don't know if I'll renew soon, but yes, I'd like to. It's impossible to think that I am going to find something better than this club. In this sense, I'm a little selfish because I'm doing very well here".

Real Madrid the only team to have scored in every La Liga game
They average 3.8 goals per match in the Spanish top flight.
After 11 La Liga matchdays, Real Madrid are the only team in Primera División to have scored in every game. Atlético and Celta (with 10) follow just behind Ancelotti's men on the list of sides who have found the net on the most matchdays. Madrid had not begun a La Liga campaign with goals in their first 11 matches for 15 years, with the last time they achieved the feat coming in 1999/00.
That the Whites rule the roost in terms of goalscoring figures is indisputable: they already boast 42 goals, an average of 3.8 per game. Their biggest win so far this season came at Riazor, where they triumphed 2-8 against Deportivo. Their next best victories were against Athletic (5-0) and Levante (0-5).

Ballon d'Or fever
Karim Benzema: "I will vote for Cristiano. Everyone will vote for him because he's the best player in the world & there's none better"
Ronaldo Nazário de Lima: "I think Cristiano Ronaldo will win the Ballon d'Or again, he's doing well and scoring many goals."
Pepe on ballon d'or 2014 :
"If any other players wins, they should be ashamed given what Cristiano has been doing, beating lots of records, scoring 17 goals in the Champions League last season, these things are almost impossible".
"In three months he has scored 23 goals. What else does he need to do? He is the best player in history and I repeat, it would be a scandal and a shame if they did not give him the Ballon d'Or", added Real Madrid defender..

Carvajal:
"I spoke with Modric and he's emotionally disappointed. He's a strong person and it's a shame he won't be with us. He's had two incredible months but we have a very, very good team with players who can will in for him perfectly.
James Rodriguez:
"I'm sad about Luka Modric's injury. We've lost a great player. Hopefully he can recover quickly."

Madrid beat yet another record
The average of 2.58 goals per each La Liga away game is the best in the club's history.
Carlo Ancelotti's Real Madrid side has obtained the best goalscoring average away from home in La Liga in the club's history. Under the Italian coach, the team score an average of 2.58 goals per away game, which is higher than the total achieved under Antic (2.28), Mourinho (2.24) and Pellegrini (2.21). Up until now, Ancelotti's Madrid side have scored 62 goals in 24 La Liga games away from home.
This season, the Whites have scored 21 goals in five away matches, making them the team with the most away goals in the league. The away stats also look excellent when Ancelotti's entire career at Madrid is taken into consideration: 96 goals in 38 matches.

Real Madrid previously visited Ipurua 10 years ago, in 2003-04 Copa del Rey
The Whites picked up a 1-1 draw on Eibar's home turf, before settling the tie at the Bernabéu.
Real Madrid take on Eibar for the first time ever in La Liga on Saturday. However, they have previously come up against the Basque outfit in the Copa del Rey round of 16 in 2003-04. The first leg, which took place on 7 January 2004 at Ipurua, finished in a 1-1 draw. Guti scored Madrid's goal. The Whites then settled the tie at the Santiago Bernabéu, with Ronaldo and Figo sealing a 2-0 second-leg victory.
The only player who survives today from that team is Casillas, who was a starter in both matches. In addition to the Madrid captain, two other members of Ancelotti's squad have previously faced Eibar as Castilla players: Arbeloa in the 2005-06 campaign and Pacheco last season.
