It was reported last week that Schuster and sports chief Pedja Mijatovic had held talks with Sneijder, who had complained about the pressure of expectation on him after his superb start to his Real career.

"That is something that someone has invented, because I doubt much that he has said that. Even so, he has come to a new club and must learn many things. Although he began very well, it is necessary to give him time," said Schuster.

"He was never so high and now he is not so low either. He is in a good line and what he must do is to continue game to game until reaching his better level."
