New Real Madrid coach Mariano Garcia Remon is confident he will have the support of the players in his attempt to help the side recover from their disappointing start to the season.

"The players are hurt and their morale isn't high," Garcia Remon told a news conference after taking his first training session following Jose Antonio Camacho's decision to quit as coach earlier on Monday.

"I need the players' help and respect to turn this round and I'm sure I'll get it," Camacho's former assistant said.

Real Madrid players were greeted by a chorus of insults from some of the 50 or so fans that had gathered outside the Bernabeu as they arrived for the training session.

But Garcia Remon, a former goalkeeper at the club, appealed to the fans to lend their support to the team for his first match in charge of the side against Osasuna on Tuesday.

"I hope the fans just let the players express themselves on the pitch," he said. "I am worried that there might be signs of rejection towards the team against Osasuna and that would be a worrying sign.

"The players are ordinary people and are suffering because they know they are being criticised. It has nothing to do with how much they earn, what they've won or anything like that."

"Obviously I have to earn the confidence of the players, but I don't have a magic wand. It is the players who are the leading artists in this show," said Garcia Remon.
