Real Madrid coach Alvaro Arbeloa expressed interesting opinions after the victory over Valencia.
Idman.Biz reports that the specialist said that visiting Mestalla is always difficult.
"Coming here is like going to the dentist. Especially when they play against Real, their motivation is very high," Arbeloa emphasized.
Arbeloa touched upon Kilian Mbappe's performance in particular:
"They say he scores goals at the same rate as Cristiano Ronaldo. We thought there would never be someone like Ronaldo again, but it seems Kilian is moving in that direction. Will he surpass Ronaldo? It's very, very difficult, because Ronaldo is an alien. But if there is someone who can do it, it is Kilian. He is the best player in the world and proves it every match."
Head coach also highly appreciated Alvaro Carrera's game:
"He is not only an excellent defender, but also a very talented attacker. He helps us a lot in attack."
Arbeloa admitted that victories are rare in this stadium:
"We have only won here three times in the last 11 years. It was a very hard victory. It took patience, dedication and a positive approach to win."
He said that they will treat Trent with caution and give him chances gradually to catch the rhythm after a long break.
Talking about Dani Carvajal, the head coach said that he trains better every day and even stays at the base when the team is on vacation:
"He is a leader and very important to us."
