The coach of Madrid's Real team, Álvaro Arbeloa, does not intend to criticize his players, let alone reveal locker room secrets.

In comments to the press, the strategist discussed the current situation at the club.

"I understand the criticism directed at my decisions. I have said many times what I think, and other times what I should.

However, the coach must be a shield for the players.

Of course, you will not hear what I say to them. With all due respect, I demand. I press and say what should be improved," said A. Arbeloa.
