"Sometimes not everything turns out well. One year, you can have problems. The important thing for a player is to keep fighting, even if you do not play every game.  "Playing in Madrid is not easy because there is much competition."Ancelotti, now coach at Bayern Munich, also stated that Madrid's triumph in last season's Champions League was not purely down to Zidane's preference to play Casemiro in midfield over James. "Zidane's great success was winning the Champions League," he added, "[but] I played one season with [Luka] Modric, James and [Toni] Kroos and we went on a streak of 22 [wins] with those three."Everything depends on the commitment the players have."</blockquote>
