Real Madrid president Ramon Calderon admits coach Bernd Schuster placed enormous pressure on himself to win the championship this season.

Real Madrid president Ramon Calderon admits coach Bernd Schuster placed enormous pressure on himself to win the championship this season.

He explained: "I spoke with Schuster and he has explained everything to me. He arrived at a team where a Liga title had been won and the trainer sacked. He agreed to take the Madrid job because it was the opportunity of his life, but faced a great risk."

"Schuster considered that if he did not at least win one title, then I should sack him. This tension did not allow him to be comfortable, the tremendous pressure was tying him down."

"Schuster will be different next season. I am convinced that feeling as a champion, with the security of which he knows how to do this, will give him a steady calm that he did not have."
