Ancelotti faces with his first crisis as head coach of Real Madrid
after his team lost 1-0 to athetico Madrid on Saturday.The defeat has
not only set the alarm bells ringing just 100 days after Ancelotti took
charge, it has provoked a full blown crisis of confidence, accompanied
by widespread doubts over whether or not Ancelotti is the man to revive
Real Madrid's fortunes.The press accuse him of not knowing his best
team, of playing out of form striker Karim Benzema ahead of youngster
Alvaro Morata, and basically of not knowing what kind of football he
wants to play.It was all going so well until the 2-1 win away to Elche,
which came thanks to a highly controversial Cristiano Ronaldo penalty

until then, the press had been generous, the fans more or less
supportive and the critics silent.However, in Elche, Madrid looked lost,
like a band of strangers stumbling through the dark and it was only the
inspiration of Ronaldo and the whistle of referee Muniz Fernandez that
showed them the way.Far worse was to come on Saturday as Atletico Madrid
took on the role of the Heavy Brigade to steam-roller the "Imperial
Guard" or Ronaldo, Isco, Serio Ramos and Pepe,Wholesale Handbag cheap Handbag with Diego Costa providing the heavy artillery which assured Real Madrid's defeat.
The press is full of stories of how key players such as Sergio Ramos and Iker Casillas,Buy Cheap Abercrombie Women's Vest who

session and asked for more unity among the squad in order to avoid a
repeat performance, while club President, Florentino Perez and Madrid's
general director, Jose Angel Sanchez had dinner with Ancelotti on Monday
evening in order to discuss the situation.It will not have escaped
Perez's attention that his management of the club has also come in for
questioning, with criticisms of the sales of Gonzalo Higuain and Mesut
Ozil over the summer. So far Higuain's goals and Ozil's ability to
provide a pass have been missed and the fact is that when the club
president is questioned, the axe usually falls on the coach.Carriage suppliersYet
Ancelotti has another chance and he will be grateful that Real Madrid's
next rival is Danish side Copenhagen, who should come to the Bernabeu
Stadium on Wednesday night as a side there to be beaten.The Italian will

given a chance along with youngsters Javier Carvajal and Casimiro, while
Gareth Bale is also penciled in to kick off along with Luka Modric, who
inspired something in midfield on Saturday.Ancelotti needs a win and he
needs a comfortable win. Although he has seen out his first 100 days,
the next 100 will be much more difficult.
