Ramos on Cope: "La Liga? I'm hopeful we'll win and hopeful that Barcelona and Atlético will drop points."

We have a better relationship with Zidane than with Benitez but we never tried to get him fired."

I think we're playing our best football of the season now. We play better when we're happy and naturally I'm happy when Barça lose."

I don't have a preference on who to win La Liga if it's between Atlético and Barça but I would prefer Rayo or Getafe to win it."

Was there was an official offer from Man United?

Ramos: "Yes. For a moment I thought about a change of scenery."

"But in the end my priority was always Real Madrid and I thought about that for other reasons."

"I have not heard [anything about interest from Chelsea or Conte]. There are always lots of things said."

"I have always said the same, attention from a big club is always a sign that you are doing well."

'But as long as my fans and my club want me, my main thought is to retire here at Real Madrid."

Issues with Real Madrid before finally signing your new deal?

Ramos: "Misled no. But they were not financial problems, as people said, maybe a bit disappointed, but there were problems which got resolved and everyone was happy.". #SergioRamosEnCOPE

This guy is our captain? Damn!!

Real Madrid are set to appeal the yellow card Clos Gómez mistakenly gave to Danilo in Wednesday’s match.

The referee should have given the card to Casemiro instead, who even argued the point in the tunnel after the match.

Casemiro would not be credited with the yellow since he was carded later in the match & is suspended for the next match due to accumulation. [AS]

Zidane: "Ronaldo's injury is not serious but he would not play tomorrow"

"It would be a huge risk to play Cristiano tomorrow because our main focus is to get him back for the Champions league game"

"I don't see James performing badly. He is a major player in our team but I have to make decisions to select starting 11"

"Gareth Bale has recovered from his injury completely. We will see if he could start tomorrow"

"Varane is always serious for games and he has enough confidence to play for a club like Real Madrid."

"James performed really well the last time he started but taking decisions is the hardest job for a manager.

"We have 3 away games and one against Valencia at home who are doing great job. We know we must do good and we are focused.

"I have a good relationship with Ramos, we played together and now he is the captain of Madrid and know the club really well." #HalaMadrid
