Following their Copa del Rey elimination at the hands of Leganes, things have scarcely been worse at the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu, with questions raised of the decisions made by Zinedine Zidane of late, yet the French coach has stated that if he thought his message wasn’t working, he would leave immediately.

The 7-1 victory over Deportivo La Coruna appears to have been somewhat of a red herring with Los Blancos immediately slipping to another home defeat, their fourth of the season, and they now face a tough clash with high flying Valencia.

“If I thought my message wasn’t working, I would leave tomorrow,” he explained in his pre-match press conference.

“In football there are good and bad moments, what I have is a desire to change the situation.

“I feel strongly about this, otherwise there would be a problem.”

Given the club won the first leg away from home, there is little explanation for how they collapsed in front of their own fans yet again, although the former Juventus midfielder took full responsibility.

“The problem was not having secured progression with our victory in the first leg,” he admitted. “Maybe I didn’t give the players enough motivation.

“I’m the only one who sees positive things, and there are some, and I’m not just saying this to protect myself.”

Zidane has been forceful, verging on the obstinate with regards to his transfer policy, especially with there being a clear need for reinforcement, he has made clear he doesn’t want a single January signing and this is a policy he stands by.

“I don’t regret anything about the team’s planning,” he intimated. “When I signed before the starting the season, I was happy with this squad.

“It’s a young squad that has to learn but I’m with them fully.”

Having already seen a move for Kepa Arrizabalaga stall in the midst of negative results, many are wondering just how long Florentino Perez’s patience will last, however this isn’t something that is overly concerning the French coach.

“If I could go back to the summer, I would still make the same decisions,” he confirmed.

“I know I have the support of the club, and of the president.”
