Asensio: It's not for me to lead from the front, there are more experienced players

Fit-again Mariano returns to Real Madrid training
Marco Asensio believes that it is not for him to now lead from the front and assert himself at the club with the current problems as there are players in the Real Madrid squad who are more experienced and carry more weight.
Having been a player that the club have put a lot of belief in, so far he has struggled to deliver on a consistent basis while the team as a whole have disappointed in the opening months of the season.
"I don't see it as a crisis, it is not for me to lead from the front, there are other players that have been at the club for longer, they are more experienced, have a higher status and it is down to them," he said.
"At the moment I'm not standing out but we will make an overall evaluation at the end of the season. There have been some criticisms that have not been correct but we know how journalism works here. I am not going to include all but there are some that go out to cause damage."
The club's poor run saw Julen Lopetegui sacked and Asensio feels that he was unfortunate.
"Football has been unjust with Lopetegui, during key moments we haven't been clinical or had luck, I don't know how to call it.
"It was a difficult situation for him due to what happened with the national team, and he lacked luck. Still he has a long career ahead and he will have his fair share of luck.
"(Under Solari) the results have been better and football is like that. He is our coach now and we will give him our best, we ned to be strong as we have always been in order to get the vicitories."
