“The data shows something is terribly wrong. From the start of the season there have been 22 muscle injuries.
“Let everyone draw their own conclusions, but for a club like Madrid the situation isn’t normal.”
[The Santiago Bernabeu crowd] again has doubts and looks for the culprit, something that isn’t new,” he lamented.
“A few weeks ago everything was easy and now there are problems again. The analysis is extreme.

“Of course Madrid needs self-criticism, to analyse errors and resolve them. I’m sure that’s what Zidane and the players are doing. Together they can overcome it.
“Those who think Barcelona and Atletico aren’t on the same level are wrong. [Diego] Simeone has created one of the best teams in Europe.”
While, Marcello Lippi has admitted that never expected Zinedine Zidane to become a manager.
“I said he was crazy and here he would always start,” AS reports the veteran boss saying.
It’s a cliché to say a player is already a Coach on the field, but in my career I had only one player with these features: Didier Deschamps,” he acknowledged.
“Other great players have become coaches and for it was a surprise. Among these is Zidane.
“[The chance to coach Madrid] is an incredible fortune, because people such as Zidane should be at great teams because they are intimately familiar with the psychology, in case of victory and defeat.
“In any case, the opposition plays with an eye on Ronaldo and company, not Zidane on the bench.”
