Ancelotti: Real Madrid has employed numerous famous players, difficult to choose a squad

Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti was delighted after their 3-0 win at Elche on Wednesday at Manuel Martinez Valero Stadium, in the tenth round of the Spanish League. Ancelotti was happy with the attitude of his players on the back of Sunday's El Clasico win against Barcelona. He said, "It was a big game because the level could have dropped a bit after the Clásico. He said, "It was a big game because the level could have dropped a bit after the Clásico. I didn't want to make any more excuses about the rotation. The team performed well, they were very focused and we had a lot of mobility up front. The game was open until the 70th minute and it could have got difficult".
"It's quite obvious that more than 11 players deserve to play. I took a risk with Valverde by telling him that he was going to score 10 goals and hopefully he'll do that so that I don't lose face. He's playing very well and surprises me in every game as he does everything well: the attacking aspect, the defensive aspect, shooting, and running... When you think of the modern midfielder, you don't have to look any further than Valverde at this moment in time."
Real Madrid tops the standings with 28 points, six ahead of second-placed Barcelona who have a game in hand and host Villarreal on Thursday, while Elche's balance is frozen to 3 points, in the last league standings.
