The Portuguese was unable to find the net in his side’s win and is concerned with some of the players surrounding him.
Spanish outlet Don Balon claim Ronaldo admires Karim Benzema in the team but is unhappy the likes of Isco, Marco Asensio and Dani Ceballos don’t always pass to him.
They claim the Real star was disappointed after the game and has left Zinedine with a headache over his team selection.
Real are currently third in the La Liga table, five points behind leaders Barcelona and one behind Valencia in second place.
A Paulo Oliveira own goal, Asensio and Marcelo handed Zidane’s side victory last night.
Ronaldo has so far only netted once in La Liga this season as Real look to defend their title.
The 32-year-old has been prolific in the Champions League though, scoring five times in just three matches.
Next up for Real is a Copa del Rey match against Fuenlabrada on Thursday evening.
After the match Marcelo said: "People forget just how tough the Spanish league is, it's the strongest league in the world.
"You've got to be patient. We put in a good performance and scored three goals. This is a very tough competition to play in."
The Brazilian also praised Benzema for the all-round player he has become at the Bernabeu.
He explained: "Benzema is a really top player. We've also got several other players who are capable of scoring goals, like Cristiano, who weighs in with a lot of goals, Asensio and Isco.
"But it's perfectly normal that people want more, because the fans are keen to see the strikers getting their names on the scoresheet.
"However, we've seen that there's far more to Benzema's game than just goals. For me, he's the best in the business".
