No crisis in Real Madrid - Jose Mourinho
Real Madrid coach Jose Mourinho dismissed suggestions that the Spanish giants were in a moment of crisis, after dropping five points in the past week to fall down the Primera Division standings.
"Some people are talking about a crisis, a dramatic situation in which we couldn't even fight to stay up. There are people interested in talking about this crisis and people that just stick to the facts: that there is no crisis, rather that we have not played well the past week," the Portuguese coach told reporters at Friday's press conference.
"It is always easy to motivate players coming off poor results. If you are complacent you can get stuck in a complacent mindset, but if you are ambitious like us it is a starting point to find new motivation."
