Jose Mourinho said after the victory of real madrid against Peñarol, the white set has experienced a difficult pre-season after failing to work with all his players several days, and recalled that “there is to mourn” because it belongs to an important organization of Madrid.
“It was a difficult preseason. 15 days I worked with 7 players, then three more after the World Cup and then got hurt a few. We worked together for three days. For a new coach, with six new players, is a very short time . We are satisfied with the work we are doing. The team is built on working time and we have not had, “he said.
“We played against Mallorca, Osasuna then after Champions League, where we are seeded. Maybe it’s Manchester, Inter … and we have not had time to work. But we are Real and have time to mourn not. It an actual argument, but does not complain, “he added.
To mourinho, the last real madrid match against Peñarol was “more training” and acknowledged that although his players did good things, also saw the negatives. “That’s how teams grow. It is a very real training. Many League teams will play the same way as Peñarol. We have given a very real training. All closed, waiting for the backlash and positive aggression. We have to press a little higher. Winning is not always the most important, but better to win than lose and get undefeated, “he said.
In addition, said of Van der Vaart, who could have played his last match at the Santiago Bernabeu and the Dutchman said she loves it. “I like playing Rafa. Today has played less time because we were with Benzema, Di Maria and Pedro Leon. In a normal situation, if Christian had played 45 minutes against Hercules, Rafa would have played 45 minutes. To play 15 minutes has Juanfran a different meaning. ”
“This is our template. The front door is closed and the output is open. It is mandatory unless a player or maybe two. It is a young workforce, is the oldest Carvalho, but that just arrived. There is on this computer a charismatic player by age. But there are players who are Golden Ball, and we have quality. Iker is a quiet and force captain in the dressing room is quiet, “he added.
“For me it’s a shame that Matthew can not play with us because I like it. Defends well and knows how to build. The Madrid is in need of that. With the difficulties we have, without Pepe, Garay Albiol and it’s a shame you can not play . It depends on how many go, we should think Mateos make a first team player, “he said.
Also asked about Ibrahimovic and its influence in Barcelona if you leave the club, said he thinks nothing will happen if that happens. “I do not think. It’s a great player. But it is much happier in Italy than in Spain. It has a tradition of great seasons in Italy, Juventus and Inter. If you go to Milan will do the same, he said.
Finally, he was questioned by cristiano ronaldo, that could lead to his ouster in a fit of rage at Peñarol. “The difference is that players very good technically, that balance, the magic, are often not very strong physically and are ready. They are players who simulate fouls, that the slightest touch seems that a truck has arrived. Looking for faults. Cristiano is physically very strong and then has a little the mindset of a British player, “he said.
“That mentality is not to make mistakes and be very strong physically and hold the sticks, the hosts and have physical strength for this. For this reason, the referees do not protect him. The creative, in our culture we say that a player is ready . In England say they have ‘fair play. “Cristiano has it and is not ready. O Cristiano fits and does the same to us … but I do not tell, do not say never, but maybe the referees should consider whether to protect a serious player like Cristiano or artists are thrown into the pool, “he concluded.
