Real Madrid coach Zinedine Zidane turned the air blue in his media conference ahead of their Champions League clash at Bayern Munich.
Zidane insisted his players could handle the atmosphere of the Allianz Arena.
"We are not going to s**t in our pants, there is no such thing," he said to reporters at his pre-match press conference.
"We like to play these games, are emotionally well, and we are prepared to play a great game."
James Rodriguez prepares to face his old team, and with Bayern playing so well in the Bundesliga, they could prove tricky opponents for Zidane's Champions League holders.
"I didn't want him to leave," Zidane continued.
"He wanted to play more and I understand, I've never had problems with James.
"This year it's been the same with other players who remain on the bench, and it's a f***er for a coach.
"He's going to be motivated because he's a football player and wants to do well.
"Anyone who thinks I'm against James is wrong, he's a great player."
