REVEALED: Senior Real Madrid players urge Lopetegui to change playing style

Senior Real Madrid players have approached coach Julen Lopetegui about changing their style of play.

Real resume their campaign after this week's international break on the back of three defeats in the last four games.

One of the complaints inside the Real locker room has been Lopetegui's insistence on a certain style of play, which many senior figures believe doesn't suit the current team.

Okdiario's chief pundit Eduardo Inda, speaking on El Chiringuito de Jugones, revealed: "There are some players' frustrated because of the tactics.

"They consider that there has to be less tiki taka and more rapid transitions, as has been historically the way of Real Madrid, and not to imitate Barça."

The opinion of Real's senior players has since been relayed to Lopetegui.
