Real Madrid president: Schuster represents new beginning

Real Madrid president Ramon Calderon is confident his controversial decision to replace Fabio Capello with Bernd Schuster will prove successful.

After getting Schuster's signature on a three-year contract yesterday, Calderon surprised the media by introducing the new coach in German!

Before that, however, Calderon said: "This is the beginning of the presentations for this summer. We love a group of professionals who play with anger, passion, style, results and for titles. A group of people who through the values that always have been identified with this club, form a team.

"Schuster has all the values to which I make reference to. As a player he was superb, a great coach and an excellent person. We begin a new way and we have the intention to see Madrid as a team which we are all proud in the way they play.

"We trust him to create a team that reaches excellence in their style of game."
