Josep Pedrerol Warns Ancelotti, Tough Defeat in Clásico and There'll be Consequences

After a week of positive aspects, Real Madrid reached the final of the Spanish Supercopa and suffered a tough defeat. The thrashing against FC Barcelona, the second this season, has reopened the crisis cabinet that had been postponed for some time at the Valdebebas offices.

Especially due to the tactical and technical behavior of Carlo Ancelotti's men. Once again, the Italian strategist's job is on the line, as warned by Josep Pedrerol. His analysis of the situation on the latest episode of El Chiringuito de Jugones has left a rather striking reflection with the Reggiolo coach as the protagonist of the situation.

Because last season's victories in LaLiga and Champions League, as well as the transfer of Kylian Mbappé, promised an "unbeatable team". The 24/25 season for Real Madrid was expected to "stroll through LaLiga and fight with the greats in the Champions League", something that definitely hasn't happened so far. That dissonance isn't the only thing worrying the white leadership.

"Once again, Barça humiliates them," says Josep Pedrerol. The host noticed that "Florentino was smiling at the end of the game", something that doesn't necessarily seem to be a positive sign for the white coach. The veteran journalist recalls that "what angers Florentino the most is losing in events like this".

Many doubts

"Florentino is very upset about losing in these matches that are seen worldwide. Ancelotti, be careful", warns Josep Pedrerol. The position of the Reggiolo coach, who seemed to have kept the soccer decline of October and November under control, is once again under discussion after this defeat in Saudi Arabia.

Once again, names of possible replacements are starting to surface in case of an immediate dismissal of Ancelotti from his position as coach: bringing back Santiago Solari would be an option. The Argentine coach would act as an interim until the leaders led by Florentino find the ideal coach to take charge of the current project.

Josep Pedrerol's warning to Carlo Ancelotti is a preview of the possible consequences that may arise in the upcoming matches. Especially considering that Real Madrid is playing, at Santiago Bernabéu, for the chance to continue fighting for the Copa del Rey. All eyes are already on a match that will be crucial for the continuity of the current white coach.

Now everything depends on Carlo Ancelotti himself. His ability to solve the uncertainties he finds himself in after losing the Spanish Super Cup final will determine his continuity on the bench. Especially as matches approach that will define the white team's chances in other more "important" competitions than the Spanish Super Cup.
