Despite being dropped off from the starting 11 on Saturday, the veteran shot stopper has taken out time to show that he still supports the decision taken by his mentor.
Real Madrid captain, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Iker-Casillas-c16815, has expressed that he still supports all the decisions made by the club’s head coach Jose Mourinho.
The goalkeeper added that the trainer is the right man for the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Job-c18684 and the way he manages affairs must be respected by those at or connected to the nine-time European champions. He asserted that every move made by Mourinho is done with the intent of benefiting
the club and this should be respected.
Los Merengues travelled to Andalusia in order to lock horns with http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Manuel-c23383 Pellegrini’s Malaga in their latest Spanish La Liga fixture. The match that took place at that Estadio La Rosalda saw the Whites lose out to the home side.
To the dismay of the Bernabeu faithful, the fixture ended with a final result of 3-2 in favour of Malaga.
Casillas was dropped from the regular line-up and Adan was given the starting role of goalkeeper. However, the athlete has still maintained his support for the Portuguese mentor.
"I'm not used to this, but before Casillas comes the team and this is not another speech," he told Spanish TV station La Sexta.
"The coach decides who plays. I have to keep training more with this healthy competition with Adan. Mourinho didn't say anything to me, he didn't explain anything. He doesn't give me explanations for when I do play, so then, neither when I don't.
"My team-mates have all given me their support, just like we've all given our support to Antonio [Adan]. Our results have not been so favourable, but the fact the two of us received the support of the dressing room is testament to the fact we all get along.
What was important was that the team won in Malaga to cut the points difference between Barca and Atlético."
Real Madrid are currently 3rd in the Spanish La Liga’s standings table. They are separated with their firecest rivals http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604 by 16 points in the Spanish Primera Division's league standings.
