Willy Caballero:
“The important thing is having got back to winning at home and to continue moving further up.  It’s a game that’s worth more than just the three points, they were a tough rival, direct, and it was important to win.”

“It doesn’t worry us how teams come to us from other competitions, for us it’s about how we dominate on this pitch.  The whole team deserves a round of applause as we worked our socks off out on the pitch, especially with one man down.”

Isco:
“We suffered but at the end we secured the win in a very complete and difficult match.  As each day goes by I’m feeling better, I’ve been quick in the rebound and that allowed me to score.  I’m very happy here, the people show me great love and in difficult moments the fans keep us flying high.”

Cazorla:
“It’s been a special match because of the opponent and becasue of the people I know in that team, but it was important to win.  We had it tough against a hard and complicated opponent.”
 
“I understand Isco very well and he’s been one of the stars, alongside Willy, and everyone made an effort to manage the result.”
