Ancelotti: "We have to show intensity and a good attitude"
"We evaluate things in the most critical manner and we have to improve," added the coach.
Carlo Ancelotti spoke to the press at Real Madrid City to assess the upcoming clash with Celta on LaLiga matchday 28: "Everyone has a lot to play for at this stage of the season and every team is more committed than ever. We have to show another attitude and increased intensity. We're well aware of what we need to do and what we are going to do. We did not perform well in the last game in front of our fans and tomorrow we have to show a different side to ourselves."
“Following the Girona match, which was our best performance of the season, we've struggled and perhaps we've stepped our foot off the gas a bit. We have to think about where we haven't been doing things so well, that's how we'll improve. We're not concerned, we evaluate things in the most critical manner and we have to improve. We lacked intensity and a good attitude on Wednesday and tomorrow we have to make sure we get those things right."
Punishment for Bellingham
“We've appealed because we believe the sanction is overzealous and inappropriate. He wasn't insulting anyone, as is reflected in the report. They have looked at the way he approached the referee and I hope they haven't singled him out because Bellingham protests in the same way as anyone else, in fact there are lots who do far worse."
Vini Jr.
“I've looked back at the statistics and I've never seen a player who has been so poorly treated. He gets kicked, insulted, jeered... He scores goals and sets them up. I think everyone should rethink their attitudes towards Vini Jr. Never before has a player with that level of talent been so harshly treated. When something needs to be looked at, we don't need to be making t-shirts."
