VIDEO: Ancelotti - 'Benzema is the best player in the world'
Ancelotti spoke to the press after Real Madrid's narrow 1-0 defeat against Barça in the 'Clasico' in Las Vegas. The coach reviewed the game and also spoke about the absence and how important Benzema is for the team.
"Karim is the best player in the world and when he doesn't play, you can feel it, something is missing. Against America he will play 45 minutes and he will play more on the 30th, where I will test the team that will play the Super Cup. There is no one in the world who can replace Karim," he said.
The Italian coach also spoke about the performance of the new signings.: "Good game, good intensity, especially in the first half. I tried to put the new players in so that they could adapt to the team's game. It was a disputed game". He also had time to talk about Eden Hazard: "He can play in many positions and he has to adapt to the false '9' position as well. He needs minutes to improve".
