Spanish media has published new information about Real Madrid footballer Arda Güler.
İdman.Biz reports that the Turkish midfielder, who has an important place in the team's game model after Xabi Alonso's arrival, has been the target of criticism in recent weeks.
Reports say that the reason Güler is the target of criticism is that he is not fully adapted to the physical load and does not play matches for 90 minutes. According to reports, the footballer has tended to withdraw after receiving criticism and his communication within the team has decreased.
"There is talk about this in the locker room. It is believed that Güler reacts harshly to criticism, and this sometimes distances him from the team environment," the Spanish media writes.
It is emphasized that head coach Xabi Alonso has also asked Arda Güler to increase his physical fitness and perform more consistently in training in recent weeks. The expert told the footballer that technical skills alone would not guarantee a permanent place in the team.
The news published by "El Nacional" was evaluated by a group of fans and the football community as an "unfair approach". They pointed to Güler's 9 productive passes in 15 games and stated that the criticism was excessive.
