Real Madrid worries its fans. If the Merengue are second in La Liga and should, at least, compete in the Champions League play-offs, the level displayed by the White House is worrying. Beaten in almost every shock since the start of the year (AC Milan, Liverpool, Barcelona twice), the Bernabéu residents were not reassured at the start of the year by being crushed by Barça in the Super Cup final from Spain. And according to Antón Meana, present in the show El Larguero, Carlo Ancelotti is starting to lose his locker room.

The Spanish journalist explains that there is a certain divide between the Italian coach and his locker room: “ He has a problem in the locker room. He's tired of the players not listening to him. He repeated it all season. A defensive commitment. He repeated it between October and today 12 or 14 times. He detects it, the team reacts in certain matches, but it does not do so in general. And he's tired of the team not responding to him. » Antón Meana was not satisfied with this statement, and affirmed that Carlo Ancelotti was sure of his method despite the difficulties encountered: “ Ancelotti, perhaps selfishly but I think sincerely, believes that he is not working badly, that his assistant is not working badly either and that the team is ready to compete. But at the end of the day, they don't do what they talk about in the locker room. »
