…FANS

You can imagine, we have practically forgotten what it is to feel sheltered by your audience, to have them applaud you when you make a good play or win a dispute, to give you that strength that you often miss, because it allows you to win a match. We must give maximum importance to tomorrow's game, because we arrived justly. I hope the public, who never fails, will support us as always, because we are going to need it.

…TEAM

On a mental level we are super strong, because we have won both games in Vigo, and also in El Sadar, but the fatigue accumulates, the absences accumulate, and in these types of situations the team has shown that it overcomes itself. That's very important in this game, then we'll have some time to catch our breath and recover the players a little.

…RAYO

I have always liked Rayo, before with Andoni and now with Francisco. Because of the way they play and because they maintain things from Andoni. The back line is good, two full-backs that give depth and width, players on the inside with deployment and quality, there are Álvaro and Isi who I love, who have been standing out for several seasons, although the first one is missing, and with a high-level forward line. And all under a great coach.

…TEAM PERFORMANCE

You have to look for the player's face and show if he trusts in what one does and prepares every day, at the moment it seems to me that he does. The same player recognizes that we are not correct. It's hard for the coach not to get results, but I simply continue to trust in what we do, in the team and in all the available players we have in the squad. We have not been inferior to any of the rivals in our league. It is time to be stronger than ever, to trust your partner and your work more than ever. The identity of this team will not change, the victories will come and the team will push forward. I understand that points are missing, I am the person in charge and I work 24 hours a day to change the dynamics of results.

…ROTATION

We have three games in a week, there will be possibilities to distribute minutes. In all the teams I have been in there have always been youth players in the rotations, what happens is that the difference there is with our reserve team is very far from competing in the First Division, which does not happen in the First Division.

…REAL SOCIEDAD

All rivals are difficult, but we are talking about a team that has just reached the semifinals of the cup and done very well in the Champions League. At home he is very strong and powerful, but it is the next game and the most important one for us. Knowing the complexity of the match, we are going to try to do things well to try to bring something positive from San Sebastián.
