(Exciting season ahead) "The best is yet to come, there’s so much excitement surrounding the team, qualifying for the Champions League, and making Club history. This is the best moment in my career so far.”
(Pre-season) "We were aware of how intense the work schedule would be whilst we were still on holiday. We’ve got three training sessions a day, and they’re really tough and take a lot out of you. It’s always hard when you get back to work, but we’re getting there…”
(International friendlies) "It’s very different now. In the last few years, we’ve spent 20-25 days in the one place, but now it’s great to be able to play against teams from other leagues. We really need to make the most of it.”
(Living with seven players from La Academia) "It’s good fun. No matter how long you’ve been playing football, you’re always learning new things. It’s lovely to see the excitement and determination amongst them. They’re an impressive reserve team, and I’m sure we’ll see a lot more of them in the future.”
