New Real Madrid head coach Zinedine Zidane has warned the club's three senior attacking players that they will have to defend under his stewardship.
Under previous regimes, Cristiano Ronaldo, Gareth Bale and Karim Benzema have often operated solely in the opposition's half.
However, Zidane has insisted that the trio - dubbed 'BBC' - must now put in a shift when the team loses possession.
"When we don't have the ball we all have to work," the Frenchman told reporters.
"You can't have three players who don't defend, that's the idea I want to get across. The best idea for defending is to have the ball."
Zidane will take charge of Los Blancos for the first time this evening when Deportivo La Coruna visit the Bernabeu.
