Madrid players after taking training on Tuesday.
The World Cup winner has replaced Rafa Benitez after the
Spaniard was sacked just seven months into his reign on
Monday evening.
“My first words were very important for the players because
we trained in front of our fans,” said Zidane.
“I told them that I am very happy to be at their side and that
this is a new adventure for us.
“We have goals to meet and we will give our very best to
reach those goals. We will try to play attacking football, but
balanced, and nothing more. We will work to do as well as
possible. The message is this.
“I’m a bit emotional, like yesterday, that will pass. I am
convinced of day to day work I will do with my players. I'm
not someone who talks a lot with press. But that's not
important. Day to day with players will be fundamental and
the message will only be one: to win."
Zidane also insists he will try to use his own style of football
having worked under Jose Mourinho and Carlo Ancelotti at
Madrid.
“I worked with Mourinho, with Ancelotti and I also visited
Guardiola,” said the former France international.
“I learned a lot from all of them and I must implement my
own style now. You cannot try to replicate what other
coaches are doing.
“We will try to have the ball and attack fast, this is how I
understand football.
“The important thing for this club is to play football and keep
the possession of the ball, my style of football will be
different, positive, and with balance. What I want to bring
you will see in the coming weeks.”
