Solari might only be in temporary charge at the Bernabeu, after the Real hierarchy ran out of patience with Julen Lopetegui, but that has not stopped him trying to address the problems he sees in the dressing room. Real have not started this season at all well by their own high standards. They are currently sixth in La Liga after 11 games and seven points behind league leaders Barcelona, who have also nearly already scored twice as many goals as their rivals. Solari, who is preparing to take his team to Celta Vigo on Sunday, is putting the onus on his players to impress and wants Bale to produce “great” performances every game.
