Gareth Bale knows the Real Madrid dressing room inside out, having spent a good part of his career there. With the Spanish club, in fact, he won the Champions League five times. Now, after Xabi Alonso's departure from the team just over a week ago, he was asked about the reasons why the coach's adventure on the Real Madrid bench had not worked out as expected. He's an amazing coach. He has won what he has won at Bayer Leverkusen Bale Kylian Mbappé schools Thibaut Courtois with an incredible goal Bale first defended the coach and highlighted his qualities. "He's an incredible coach. He's won what he's won at Bayer Leverkusen, he's won trophies, he's coached the team incredibly well. But coming to Real Madrid, you don't need to be a coach, you need to be a manager. You need to manage the egos in the dressing room," he told TNT Sports. https://twitter.com/USER_ID/status/2013752460200870244 You don't have to do so many tactical things. In the dressing room there are superstars who can change games in the blink of an eye Bale The Welshman insisted on his idea but also highlighted the quality of the players in the white team, who are capable of unbalancing a match in a flash. And that, for him, is the most important thing."You have to pamper the egos. You don't have to do so many tactical things. In the dressing room there are superstars who can change games in the blink of an eye. So, yes, you can tell he's a great coach and tactician, but at Madrid, obviously, it didn't work out," he concluded.
