Real Madrid coach Pellegrini unhappy with starting line-up speculation

Real Madrid coach Manuel Pellegrini is unhappy with the media constantly speculating over his starting XI selection.

He said: "These are statements that have been doing the rounds in the press, but I've always said there are 23 players and the coach decides at the end of a long week."

"There is no fixed policy on rotations, I can play a team for three straight weeks."

"But we will try to use the largest possible number of players so that nobody is left behind."
