Arsenal coach Unai Emery believes Real Madrid can adapt without Cristiano Ronaldo. All-time leading scorer Ronaldo left for Italian champions Juventus in the off-season and Real Madrid have battled to fill the void following four consecutive matches without a goal.
Real Madrid have lost three of those games, including last week’s shock 1-0 LaLiga defeat at Deportivo Alaves, increasing the pressure on under-fire head coach Lopetegui. Emery, however, is confident Lopetegui, who replaced Zinedine Zidane at the start of the season, can get Real Madrid balance back.
Emery said :
“Real Madrid must find balance without him and they need time to adapt, However, I think Julen will find it.” Emery added: “We cannot answer for Julen, but when it happens to me, I try to be patient, but it is difficult to ask for patience in football. I’m sure the goals will come for Lopetegui.”
