Marcelo spent 15 years at Real Madrid, and the Brazilian was regarded as one of the best left-back of his generation.

In his 15 years at the club, Marcelo saw as many as ten managers take charge of the team.

Marcelo has worked with some of the biggest managerial names, but the Brazilian surprisingly doesn’t have a favourite.

When asked to name the best among them, Marcelo settled for three and what he learnt from the three.

“The best in terms of his talks, was Jose [Mourinho] — a coach who specializes in getting into your head. It changed me into being aggressive.

“In group management I’d say Zizou, because there was a time when Kiko Casilla played 25 games and Keylor Navas smiled on the bench. He kept everyone happy.

“Carlo [Ancelotti] kept his calm way of being. We scored a goal and we were always calm. It was very good for me to have him.. In my last season in that situation I was the captain of the team, but he preferred to start someone else, and that’s normal, and he has helped me on this issue.”
