MADRID, Nov. 18 (Xinhua) -- They call Real Valladolid's Nuevo Zorrilla stadium "The pneumonia ground" because in winter it is one of the coldest grounds in Spain. It was not that cold on Saturday night, nevertheless Real Madrid coach Bernd Schuster must have felt an icy chill running down his spine at the end of his side's 1-0 defeat to Valladolid.
That defeat, which was just deserved, against a side determined to forget their 6-0 thrashing away to Barcelona a week ago, has put Schuster's head on the block.
All that needs to happen now is for the axe to fall and it looks as if Schuster is sharpening the blade himself.
Real Madrid's coach Bernd Schuster reacts behind player Marcelo during their Champions League soccer match against Juventus at Santiago Bernabeu stadium in Madrid Nov. 5, 2008.
Sunday saw a voluntary training session held at Real Madrid's Valdebebas training ground. Only five players appeared and of those Javi Garcia was the only footballer, who had played the previous night. What was surprising, however, is that the coach was not there either; Schuster opting to travel to a family engagement in Salamanca rather than to be seen to be working with his players.
While the club's Director of Sport Pedja Mijatovic was being booed by supporters at Real Madrid's B team game, Schuster left training in the hands of his number two Manolo Ruiz. That has not gone unnoticed at the club.
