Cameras caught Real Madrid midfielder Isco complaining about his limited role in the team under coach Zinedine Zidane on Saturday.
Isco – who was an unused substitute in a 3-1 Clasico win over Barcelona at Camp Nou – was picked up by Movistar TV cameras talking to Luka Modric and Marcelo as they sat in the stands before the match.
“If [Zidane] has to take me off, he takes me off in the 50th or 60th minute, sometimes at half-time,” Isco said, which led to laughter from his teammates. “If he has to bring me on, he brings me on in the 80th minute.”
The Spain international has made just two starts in La Liga this season.
Against Real Valladolid he played 57 minutes before being taken off, and he was withdrawn after 45 minutes against Cadiz after failing to impress.
He has also made two substitute appearances, coming on at half-time against Real Betis and brought on in the 89th minute against Levante.
Zidane said he had “no doubts” about the 28-year-old after the Cadiz display, saying it was “a bad day, we want to change things, and Isco first of all.” (ESPN)
