Gregorio Manzano, coach of high-flying Mallorca, has previewed his side's clash with Real Madrid tomorrow and knows that they have a tough task of coming away from the Santiago Bernabeu with anything to show for their efforts.
The coach will celebrate his 185th game in charge of Mallorca against los Blancos, equalling Serra Ferrer's total, and he stated his belief that Manuel Pellegrini's side can topple Barcelona at the summit of the Primera Division table.
"Now I see a Real Madrid side able to break the hegemony of Barcelona," he affirmed to Marca.
"Each time I see a better team, better armed and with a better knowledge of what they want."
Kaka will return to action for Real Madrid against los Barralets, and Manzano knows exactly where the Brazilian should be played in order to see the best results.
"He could have waited another week to come back," Manzano joked. "He is a great player who I have always thought must play just behind the two strikers."
