Following their defeat at Anfield, Real Madrid will return to La Liga next Sunday, where Carlo Ancelotti continues preparing for the upcoming match. In his remarks, he highlighted one of his players.<\/p>\n
According to the Spanish newspaper Defensa Central, the player in question is Ferland Mendy, who had a disappointing performance against Liverpool.<\/p>\n
The French left-back has struggled to impress this season, raising concerns about his position in the team, despite Ancelotti\u2019s previous support. A few months ago, the Italian coach praised Mendy as \u201cthe best defensive full-back in the world,\u201d but this view now seems to have changed.<\/p>\n
As Mendy\u2019s form declines and Fran Garc\u00eda performs adequately, Ancelotti has started rotating them more frequently. While Mendy was once the first choice for big matches, his recent performances have prompted Ancelotti to consider giving Garc\u00eda a more prominent role.<\/p>\n
It appears that Ancelotti plans to start Fran Garc\u00eda in Sunday\u2019s match against Getafe, with Mendy likely to be on the bench. This decision is one of several Ancelotti is weighing, and if Mendy\u2019s form doesn\u2019t improve, he may remain sidelined for a while.<\/p>\n
Once untouchable under Ancelotti, Mendy\u2019s place in the team is now in jeopardy after his poor showing against Liverpool. This situation has allowed Fran Garc\u00eda to step in as a starter. Ancelotti\u2019s frustration with Mendy\u2019s performance could result in the French player starting on the bench against Getafe, sending a clear message about his uncertain future.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
