[Corb]

Apparently a player leaked it.

Apparently there has been some major stir in the RM dressing rooms with Mourinho and Spanish players. Marca, El Confidencial and El Pais say the players are confused with the direction of the team, with the treatment and media relations they're receiving and such. This is what Marca was supposed to get from Friday's training where Mourinho and players had a long talk with some fierce arguments. Out of the players Ramos was supposed to be the loudest one:

Mourinho [looking at Ramos]: You killed me in the neutral zone before the media.
Ramos: No coach, you've only read what the press have presented. That wasn't all.
Mourinho: Of course they won't present all of it, because you're the World Champions and your friends protect you.. Just like the keeper..
Casillas [training with the keepers 30m away]: Coach! Apparently we say everything to our faces down here, right?
Mourinho: I will be the one looking in the eyes of media tomorrow.
Player1: Of course, but we are not allowed to speak. No press conferences, no interviews.
Player2: You are mad at Iker, because he asked Xavi for forgiveness, and what did Pepe do on the post match clip?

Afterwards during Puyol's goal there was supposed to be a conflict. It's clear that Pepe was the one late marking Puyol, but Mourinho blamed Ramos. Before the match Sergio was selected to mark Carles and Mourinho got mad at it. Ramos didn't stay quiet.

Mourinho: Where were you during the first goal, Sergio?
Ramos: I marked Pique.
Mou: You were supposed to mark Puyol.
Ramos: Yes, but they were doing screens on us so we decided to switch.
Mou: Oh, you're pretending to be the coach now?
Ramos: No, but depending on the situation in the match marking changes and since you've never played football yourself you might not realize it, which has to happen sometimes.

Atmosphere was supposed to be getting tense through the training. Xabi was asking Ramos to calm down, but many players are said to lose faith in the coach after last Clasico. Team apparently doesn't get why they are told to play tiring system which forces them to give up the ball and keep pressuring and running after Barca players. Cristiano, Higuain and Benzema were supposedly the ones most disappointed. Some players also didn't understand why Carvalho played arguing it's lack of respect for Albiol or Varane.



Damn...

wowzers.

 

[Richard.H]

Is Mourinho extremely biased towards the Portuguese players or what?

It is what looks like.

 

[Catalonian Devil]

Shit, sounds like they're all turning against him.

Wonder what Ronaldo's stance is...

If I was a Madrid fan I would've wanted his ass gone. His negativity is infectious...

 

[Het_fenomeen_Messi]

Don't get your hopes up. Mourinho has a strong character. Won't affect their performances at all. They are pros.

 

[El Gato]

No idea how they know it, but that's a major story with Madrid media. And since Cuatro is often able to deduce what players have said on the pitch from the videos and some technology then maybe it's true.

 

[oggmar]

I'm like everytime a rumor like this crawl up to the surface, but this one might actually be somewhat correct atleast.

Damn...

 

[Yugi]

I feel sorry for Iker or Ramos if he really attacked them this way, they are much longer with the club and he has no right to say something to them especially
as I said a page or two back, he will leave no legacy in madrid and they will probably have to start from "begining"

I don't think its true..but I believe that someone(Florentino or Casillas) is testing the waters and wants to show Mou who's the boss. We will see how this workes ot.

 

[El Gato]

If it's even partially true, we'll be able to tell from Bilbao game definitely. The game is surely worth a watch this time.

Damn...

Probably largely BS but still was well entertained. Ramos's last comment about Mourinho never playing football had me in stitches.

 

[FCBarca]

I don't think its true..but I believe that someone(Florentino or Casillas) is testing the waters and wants to show Mou who's the boss. We will see how this workes ot.

There's credible evidence out there and pretty much every paper is carrying that story as well as the Malaga one - even Marca & AS...Mou is a douche, glad Iker et al are beginning to say enough is enough
