Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti has shrugged off criticism of his system.
Ahead of Sunday's clash with Real Sociedad, he responded to those who say the team doesn't have a style of play.
"They also said it last year," he stated. "We have the [quality of] football. Sometimes we do it well and sometimes less well.
"Madrid do not have a clear identity, for the simple reason that we don't want to have one.
"We are a team that knows how to do many things, not just one. And I like that."
He did, however, clarify his favourite formation.
"The 4-2-3-1 is a system that I like, especially defensively. Sometimes Modric has played there as a playmaker, sometimes Asensio, sometimes Rodrygo. He likes it, it's ideal to play behind the striker. We are thinking about it. In many games we've played like that," he said.
