Ancelotti's disappointing statement on Arda Güler: He is satisfied with his performance, but...

Carlo Ancelotti, the manager of Spanish giant Real Madrid, made notable remarks regarding the young star of Turkish football, Arda Güler.

The Italian head coach answered questions regarding Arda Güler, who put in a strong performance during the international break.

"Arda cannot play as a double pivot, but he has the quality and characteristics to play in the midfield ahead of them," said Ancelotti, adding, "He does not have the defensive characteristics to play as a defensive midfielder."

Listing his expectations for the 19-year-old player, Ancelotti said the following:

"I EXPECT HIM TO DEFEND AND ATTACK"

"I expect Arda Güler to defend and attack. It's not that complicated. He needs to take up good positions. He should get between the lines, receive the ball, and provide assists.

"They need to close in defensively. In a 4-3-3, the job of the player operating inside is much more intense than that of a winger."

SATISFIED WITH HIS PERFORMANCE BUT...

Expressing that he is satisfied with the performance of his player, who has had the opportunity to play in three matches in LaLiga so far this season, the experienced manager said the following:

"Arda did a good job. He will become even more important, he will stand out more. He was in the starting 11 against Valladolid."

“I DO NOT SEE ARDA AS AN UNDISPUTED STARTER”

I do not see him as an undisputed starter. In fact, I don't see an undisputed starter in this squad at all.”
