Will Mbapp\u00e9 be able to play by the end of the season?
<\/b>\u201cI don\u2019t know. Two weeks remain, and depending on how he evolves from the discomfort he currently has, we\u2019ll see if he can play or not.\u201d<\/p>\n
Would you have liked Mbapp\u00e9 to travel?
<\/b>\u201cI would have liked him to be 100% and able to play from the start. That\u2019s what I really would have liked.\u201d<\/p>\n
The final stretch of the season
<\/b>\u201cI will approach it with even more responsibility, knowing that our season ended today. What we cannot do is let ourselves go, not even a little. We have three games that we must go out and win. Here, we defend something that is much bigger than all of us and much bigger than our prestige, which is the badge of Real Madrid,<\/b> representing millions of fans. We need to show that we are truly hurt by playing three great games and achieving three great victories.”<\/p>\n
The match
<\/b>\u201cThe game became very difficult for us too early. We were up against a great team, which is very good at managing games when they have the lead. They manage possession very well, float many players, and are a well-drilled team that had a great game. It\u2019s a shame we didn\u2019t convert any of the chances we had, even at 2-0, to show that we could still be in the game. It wasn\u2019t an easy scenario for the players, and I asked them to give their all until the end, regardless of the scoreline, and that\u2019s what we tried to do.”<\/p>\n
The team\u2019s future
<\/b>\u201cWe have a great squad from which we can get a lot of performance. I don\u2019t want this to sound like an excuse, but it\u2019s clear that it hasn\u2019t been easy at all due to everything that has happened over these months, with numerous injuries to key players. From there, I believe the club will always look to improve, even though we have a squad with very good players that any team in Europe would want. Now, we can only think about the future and understand all the things we need to correct and do much better next season. There\u2019s nothing more to add from our side.\u201d<\/p>\n
How would you lay the foundations for the team?
<\/b>\u201cI think that\u2019s something that\u2019s not for me to analyze. As I\u2019ve said many times, we need to take a collective step forward, have a much clearer idea of what we want to do, and prioritize the team over individuals. Beyond talent, we always need to have a very clear idea, and for me, that\u2019s the starting point. Above all, we also need to learn from the fact that we\u2019ve lost many points against teams and in matches where we shouldn\u2019t have. You can play against Bar\u00e7a and lose. They\u2019re a team at your level, but there are many matches we shouldn\u2019t have let slip away as we did. Surely, that\u2019s one of the lessons to take away.\u201d<\/p>\n
His future
<\/b>\u201cWe will surely have a conversation with the club, as is normal. Right now, what I want is for the team to finish well and not let up in these three games. I think there will be opportunities for players who are training well to get minutes and finish the season on the pitch. That will be my goal and where I\u2019ll focus over these two weeks. Whatever the future holds, we\u2019ll see from May 24 or 25 onward.”<\/p>\n
Why didn\u2019t Huijsen play?
<\/b>\u201cHe wanted to play, but he felt very weak and quite unwell when warming up. It was my decision for Ra\u00fal (Asencio)<\/b> to play because I believed that in a match like this, we needed energy in all positions. That\u2019s why I made that decision.\u201d<\/p>\n
