El Pipita broke his silence over playing second fiddle to Karim Benzema and stated that it was tough to be relegated to the bench so often.
Gonzalo Higuain double his productivity from the 2010/11 season, scoring 25 goals and laying down 10 assists in 54 competitive outings. Despite appearing in the majority of the matches for Los Blancos, El Pipita lost his first team slot to a reformed Karim
Benzema and was consigned to the bench as a result.

Higuain confided that it has been a hard year for him as he did not get that many chances to start from the get go. He added that he strives for such chances and had to suffer when he was made to sit on the bench.
However, he added that Real Madrid’s La Liga success mellowed down his feelings and was a just reward to make him forget about his individual self.
“Yes, truthfully it is. It's been a tough year. Honestly, I didn't get many chances to play. It's especially true for me, because that's what I live for. When you don't play, you suffer. But after all the suffering, the icing on the cake was winning the
league.”

 “The kindness demonstrated by the people at the last game was spectacular, as well as by my teammates. That made me very happy. It makes me feel proud and means that I did things right.”
