Good pre-season

“We’ve had a good pre-season and now LaLiga is back.  It’ll be like always, a very tough, hard-fought competition, but I think we’re well prepared on the approach.”

Great group

“We’ve not suffered any serious injuries, so I hope it continues.  The new signings who have arrived have adapted quickly to the group dynamic, and we’ve done a good job.”

Undefeated

“It’s important for group morale, and it’s always positive to go from win to win.  It really strengthens our confidence, and is very encouraging.”

LaLiga returns to La Rosaleda

“It’s always a pleasure stepping on to the pitch at La Rosaleda, knowing that these fans always respond and fight to the death with us.  For me, as a footballer, it’s a very privileged time to enjoy.”

Aarón and Samu

“The boys have worked so well, and we’ve had a great pre-season.  They’re young players, with great quality, and are on a learning curve.  I’ve been like a big brother to them, it’s been wonderful.”
