Carlo Ancelotti spoke frankly on Tuesday at the press conference on the eve of Real Madrid's Champions League clash against Copenhagen, to issue a 'mea culpa': "It is normal that people are angry but this is my responsibility and I am going to fix things. It is an extra motivation for me because I want people to enjoy watching Real Madrid play", he said.
The Italian coach also took the opportunity to ask for patience from fans before they see his side in full flight. "The results were good until the last week. We have yet to start playing our natural game. We need a bit more time for the players to get accustomed to the system in the most fluid and natural way possible ".
Ancelotti described the meeting he had with the whole squad on Monday as positive. "It is very important to speak together so that we know what all the players are thinking. We are all in this together, through good and bad, and the player's opinion is crucial".
On the subject of Benzema and his on the field argument with Pepe, Ancelotti was non committal: "Nothing changes whether he plays or not. On the pitch it is normal that the players talk, if Karim does play he will have a good game".
Ancelotti also took time to discuss club President Florentino Pérez and his influence over player signings for this season. "He is the most important man at Real Madrid. He is very intelligent and when we sign a player it is because we are all in agreement", he commented.
