Real Madrid manager, Carlo Ancelotti has come out to say that he plans to try a new formation during Real Madrid’s U.S. tour this month. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, football is at the stage where managers must learn to adapt to the players they have because footballers must feel comfortable to give their best for the team.
Ancelotti added that Bellingham is different to the other midfielders at Madrid, and he is very happy to have him around.
His words, “When I started coaching I had a clear idea, and I didn’t adapt to the players I had,”
“I had an experience at Parma, where [Roberto] Baggio wanted to play as a playmaker and I didn’t change the system. He went to another team. And I was wrong.”
“At Juventus, with [Zinedine] Zidane, I started to understand that it’s better to adapt to the players. “Players have to feel comfortable. I adapted and I’m still adapting.”
“This year we might play a different system. The system we have played with has been very successful, but we can try a new style. We’re going to try it on the tour. It’s a good time to do so.”
On Bellingham, “He’s different to the other midfielders we have. We are very happy that he’s with us. He raises the level at Real Madrid. He works hard, he’s doing well and he will play on the tour.”
