More minutes and victories

“I’m happy to keep adding minutes, which at the end of the day is what we like after so much preseason training, against a tough, strong and demanding rival.  And also I’m happy for the result, because we have to get used to winning, happy for all the things we showed as a team, even though, logically, there’s still a lot to improve on.”

Winning

“Winning always helps. Whenever you win it’s because you’ve done something well.  This is what the team’s done, both in defence and on the attack and created opportunities which is all important.”

Our players

“Lots of young people have come along, people who are hungry.  Also teammates who know the LaLiga and now it is an important time to adapt.  Those of us who have been here longer will try and make it easier for them and that they feel properly part of the group and in a good place in the dressing room.”

Costa del Sol

“It’s a historic trophy, it’s our trophy and we always like to play for our public.  First we have to spend the week preparing and on Saturday we will have another prep game where we’ll try and do things well and if we win, that’ll be even better.”
