Continue to earn points

“The team is gaining points, which are very important at this stage in the competition.  In the last match against a direct rival, who are strong at home, we also claimed the points, so we’re thrilled and working with great expectation.”

Personal moment

“It’s almost my ninth season in LaLiga, and with the help of my teammates and the work of the coach, it was easy for me to adapt.  Therefore, when everything’s going well, it’s a great help.  I’m very pleased with what we’ve been doing so far.”

Objectives

“The team is looking very good, particularly as we’ve not run into any trouble.  We’re now facing matches against rivals who are playing for a great deal in the lower part of the table, but we’re solely relying on ourselves; this is the calm we have now which will help us approach the games whilst being more relaxed.  We can’t rest on our laurels and must maintain our ambition.  Of all the points in play, we’ll try to gain at least all the ones from our home games.”

Dressing room and mentality

“The dressing room has always been very united, everyone’s very close.  It’s much appreciated, we’re achieving our objectives and are going to give our all.  Firstly, we must think about ourselves, not focus too much on the future.  We must maintain calm, there are numerous teams below us that will make things tight, so the important thing is to not neglect any rival.  We need to continue with the same winning mentality.  In every match we feel like we can achieve our objective, which is to win.”
