Benzema happy to ignore Real Madrid boo-boys

Karim Benzema has again stated he can handle the jeers of Real Madrid fans.

The France striker missed out on the goal feast at Deportivo La Coruna on Saturday.

Benzema remarked: "When I finish my career as a professional footballer, I reckon I'll have a big collection of trophies ... Meanwhile I accept criticism without getting upset.

"I've even been called worse at the Stade de France!

"But I like the ball, I like to play football and, I repeat, I will not get upset. I'm lucky, I'm in the best club in the world."
