Real Madrid are struggling currently with their coach on the recieving end of being sacked but Julen Lopetegui was in fighting mood and told media not to expect to see a defeated coach when he appeared before them in the press conference ahead of the Champions League clash with Viktoria Plzen.
Real Madrid's defeat at the weekend in LaLiga Santander has seen them fall down to seventh in the table and rumours are rife that a change could be made sooner rather than later.
"I am looking at the situation the same as ever, I am carrying out my day to day as usual and that is what is under our control," he said. "If you want to see a defeated coach then don't look here.
"In my view we have a game tomorrow that we are looking forward to and we will go about it with total commitement and drive. I am not thinking about anything else other than tomorrow's game."
He denied he is thinking about his future after being asked whether Tuesday's match could be his last.
"It has been assumed as done and dusted from what I have read but what I have done is analyse and prepare for the rival, I am not thinking of anything else which is my responsibility," said Lopetegui. "I am here right now, I cannot confirm anything else right now. I will be the coach tomorrow."
Lopetegui looked calm and relaxed as he oversaw Real Madrid's final training session before the Champions League game against Viktoria Plzen. As usual the coach watched the players work out and perform rondos from a distance, surrounded by his backroom staff.
Lopetegui then arranged an exercise with the ball, and after giving instructions, again looked on from the sidelines. Carvajal was the only player missing as he continues to recover from injury.
