Saturday, December 5, 2009 -- Real Madrid coach Manuel Pellegrini is unconcerned that defending Spanish champions Barcelona have done five points clear at the top of the table in the Spanish Primera Division table.
Barcelona went five points clear at the top in midweek after defeating Xerez 2-0 away. The game was brought forward because of the European champions' commitment in the World Club Cup.
Madrid coach Manuel Pellegrini, though, doesn't seem too concerned and told a press conference:
"We continue exactly the same. The important thing now is to continue winning games until the end of the year and finish as leaders or as close as possible to the lead.
"We need more continuity in our game, we need to be more consistent. We don't lack the quality but we have lost a little precision, we are still creating chances," he added before stating that the criticism levelled at his team by the media after the defeat to Barcelona is unwarranted.
"One defeat [to Barcelona] is highlighted more than our 12 wins. Everything good is forgotten and everything bad is highlighted. None of the victories we have had this season has soccer jerseys been unfair."
