Why does Mourinho want rid of Zidane? Could Villa follow Guardiola out of Barca? Guillem has the answers...
Guillem brings you all the talking points from Spanish football
At the moment, Real Madrid are going about getting the title without much sophistication.
It's all very direct, but it all counts. After the 0-0 draw against Valencia, I think there was an instruction from Jose Mourinho to be more direct and not to pass the ball around in midfield in case they lose it.
He's trying to avoid any pressure and he wants them to get the ball to the front three - Angel Di Maria, Karim Benzema and Cristiano Ronaldo - as quickly as possible.
It was interesting that Gonzalo Higuain and Kaka didn't even warm up against Sevilla. It's pretty clear that Higuain wants to leave and while Mourinho would like to keep him, if he's going to stay then he won't play much.
Real Madrid are looking to the future. Now that Mourinho has decided to stay he wants to reinforce his authority at the club and that perhaps involves getting rid of Zinedine Zidane from his role as sporting director.
Zidane was useful to Mourinho when he was fighting to get rid of Jorge Valdano, but he is quiet and is not the "bad cop" that Mourinho wants have next to him. The idea is to get somebody who is more vociferous and who will defend the Mourinho corner, so that he doesn't have to do it all himself.
It's quite clear that his number two, Aitor Karanka, is not that type of person and it's obvious that Mourinho thinks he needs that at the club.
Also, he would like to change the medical department a little bit and would prefer to have more of a hand in the academy. Generally he thinks the club needs to make a jump forward and incorporate itself in the 21st century. He thinks things are done too slowly and should be done better.
Now that he's pretty much won the league, that will be his next fight at the club.
Interestingly, there was a little bit of whistling from the fans at the end of the Sevilla game and that has been interpreted as a criticism of the way that Real Madrid approached the second half of the game against Bayern Munich when, again, they were direct and the defence sat deep.
There were big gaps between the defence and the midfield and between the midfield and the attack. There is perhaps a general impression from some fans in some quarters that winning a cup and a league in two years - and reaching two Champions League semi-finals - does not represent the miracles that were expected of Mourinho.
But he is certainly better than what they had in the previous couple of seasons.
I will discuss Pep Guardiola's departure when I answer your questions below, but it was amazing how the story was treated by the English media.
In fact, I'd like to congratulate the English press because they treated it like Sir Alex Ferguson was leaving. The press conference was live on Sky Sports News and it was big news in all of the newspapers. Everybody seemed to have an opinion
I appreciate the fact that England treated it as such a big story. It shows how up and modern the English media is. I don't think Sir Alex Ferguson leaving Manchester United would be treated the same way in Spain.
