Former Chelsea midfielder, Claude Makelele, has slammed José Mourinho’s tactical setup after Real Madrid lost 2-1 to Atletico Madrid in LaLiga last weekend.
Makelele criticized how Mourinho set up Los Blancos against a disciplined Atletico side.
In a chat with ESPN, he claimed there was a lack of proper strategy for the Derby game and Real were set up to fail.
Makelele also rubbished claims that the refereeing was poor in the match.
“There is no understanding. Neither between the players nor with the coach. Mourinho must talk to them,” Makelele said.
“The team is weak, there is no game plan and no clear ideas. There is nothing. Nothing, nothing, nothing… Absolutely nothing. We must demand more from them.
“The problem is not the referee, there is an obvious deficiency in the team.”
