Sixth straight win
“I’m really enjoying it. It’s very difficult to reach this point in the season and string together so many victories. It’s not easy, and we have to enjoy it. We give everything, and the result is the reward. Now we have to focus on Miranda, this is a game-by-game process, and that’s how it is.”
Great moment
“This season we hadn’t really found our rhythm. Now we’re in a good moment, both in terms of results and, above all, in our performance. We have to enjoy it, appreciate it, and let it show us that we’ve achieved some very nice things with this football.”
Burgos CF
“I knew that sooner or later a team would come at us with a lower press. They pressed higher after the first goal. Burgos enjoy defending, and against teams that sit deep, the quality of the players decides the matches. I’m very happy with the way we approached a tough opponent, and I’m eager to keep improving, maintain this run, and continue bringing joy.”
Clean sheet
“It was something we needed to improve on, when the players up front are sharp, we weren’t as tight. But we were determined to keep a clean sheet, like last week and this one. The more you have the ball, the harder it is for them to score. We’re taking good care of the ball. Sometimes we concede chances, but it’s working. I’m happy to help the team with that save, and today the defensive work was very good. The team is fully committed in defence.”
Key save
“It came from a long ball, the ball dropped dead in front of me, and I knew I had to stay on my feet. The save was good, but I had two teammates behind me. That split-second decision to strike faster changes the play. I’m happy, but credit also goes to my teammates.”
Confidence
“We’re the same team as we were two or three months ago, the same players, just in different moments. Right now we’re confident, enjoying ourselves, and having people supporting those 11 players who start each weekend is very important. Seeing the level of those not playing is admirable. And these are people who end up being important in the dressing room. It’s one of the keys to why things are going so well.”
Dressing room
“It’s easy to be a captain at this club. The dressing room we have is very healthy, very young. That good vibe is always there. As captain, I can speak from experience. All the guys are always listening, paying attention to what you have to say. That’s important.”
Hard work and unity
“Every week there’s something new. But we have to focus on the fact that the team is doing well. Video analysis is important, but it’s the day-to-day work that’s giving us this level. The players are doing very well, but we have to appreciate the moment we’re in, with our fans cheering and supporting us. Everyone together, as one.”
