Real Madrid's German coach Bernd Schuster said Saturday that he is feeling great at the Spanish champions as his side sits proudly at the top of the league table.
Schuster was reacting to speculation in the Spanish press that he is ill at ease with his new paymasters, whom he joined in the summer from minnows Getafe.
At a press conference he was asked if it bothered him that in the corridors of power at the club he was considered to be annoyed.
"I feel great, top, with four points in the Champions League," he replied. "I can't complain because I can't ask for any more than that."
On September 20 the newspaper Marca claimed Schuster was feeling uneasy at Real, quoting comments he made to a German television station.
But Real are top of the table with 16 points from six matches, a point ahead of Villarreal and this weekend's opponents Valencia.
Real also head their Champions League group C ahead of Greeks Olympiakos on goal difference.
