Ancelotti: "This Ballon D'Or is obvious"

Carlo Ancelotti talked to the press about Real Madrid's match against Eibar.

We should be talking about next year's award because this one is obvious. People forget that he scored 17 goals in the Champions League and was key to win.

Ancelotti has not made a decision about who will replace Modric.

I don't know yet. It will be either Khedira or Isco. Illarramendi will be ready to play in one week, we haven't lost our trust in him, and he can play with Kroos too.

And finally, he analyzed Eibar.

We have a lot of respect, before the FIFA break we were playing really well and now we have to wait and see.
