The Italian spoke about different versions of their eleven against Bayern and surrendered to the game of Arda Gulerwho he confirmed will remain with the white club next season.
Arda Güler’s match and continuity at Real Madrid: “Everyone who played in this last stretch of the season did very well. Today Arda, Dani, Fran Garcia… showed good spirit and dedication. They fought and fought. Arda scored a goal, he will be a very important player for us in the future and there is no doubt that he will remain here next year.
Tactical evolution of Arda Guler: “Yes, he convinced me. This is the limit that he has. His quality and talent are extraordinary. He has a very great gift. He worked very well. He could play earlier because he trains very well. He is very young.” and little by little he will play a leading role in this team. He scored more goals than he played minutes, that is his gift.
Ancelotti about Modric, Militao, Courtois or Real Sociedad
Modric’s options to start against Bayern: “Yes, Luka Modric showed what he showed in the last games: ball control and excellent physical shape. He was very good, he handled the ball well in the second half and that allowed us to take the pressure off Real Community. , who performed very well in the first half. “His condition is excellent and he will obviously be able to play on Tuesday.”

Rudiger’s teammate against Bayern: “I need to look at the lineup for Tuesday. Militao is also back, who played for the first time in the starting lineup and did very well. These are all options that we have and which I will evaluate in the coming days.”
Like Militao and Courtois?: “Obviously Militao has options. This week we will see if Thiba can play against Cadiz and then we will evaluate him game by game. The important thing is that Militao has shown little by little that he is returning to his best form.” Now he will have time to improve: “We are very happy in this sense.”
Changes at eleven: “It was very clear that everyone thought we were coming for a party, but the only ones who didn’t think so were the players. That’s why I’m very proud of them because they had the commitment and attitude that only they could have the desire and enthusiasm to keep winning to keep the good dynamics in the dressing room. I have to thank them because they were impressive.
The importance of beating Real Sociedad: La Real plays very well, they press a lot. They play offensively, I really like them. It wasn’t easy to win here considering what’s coming in the next games, but I have an amazing squad. For them we must win every game. We won by fighting and suffering, and that’s very good. “There are four points left to win in LALIGA, we are very close.”
