How are the players touched?
Until the last day we will not confirm anything. There are three players who are being treated and the rest are training well.
How has the week been after Saturday’s draw?
We are well, positive and happy. We come from a game in which we gave a twist. We took care of the small details playing against a great team and we had a good feeling again. We are going to a powerful stage with an intense team. It is a team that does not change and does things well. I expect a match similar to the one we played here.
What do you think Olivera?
I think he is an extraordinary player and one that every coach wants because he always has a regular and high grade. He is a club player that when you stop having him you realize what a piece of player you had. I hope it stays a long time.
Getafe’s first away win in history was at San Mamés with Quique on the bench.
We remember. It is one of those statistics that are comfortable and I would not mind repeating it. That one led us to a virtual salvation on a Wednesday many years ago. With the consolidation of Getafe we can try again and achieve it.
What can you say about Marcelino?
Marcelino has no mystery. He is a contemporary coach who has been around for as long as I have. We have parallel careers and we have added many games in important leagues. He is loyal to his systems and convictions. He is demanding and has very good strategic ability. I love it and I recognize myself in him because he likes to measure the games and have everything under control that can make the games more friendly on the contrary.
And athletics?
The reflection of his coach. Everything I have said for him is worth it for his team. It is a very intense team. A mix of Osasuna and Valencia. He has his physical strength, the speed of Valencia at the top and the defensive solidity of Osasuna winning duels. We know what is going to happen and the demand to which they are going to reach us.
Does anything worry you about these five days without winning?
I’m not worried about anything because I know that in the last days the difficulty is great. Now each point is gold, it is very difficult to add. Everyone is tight and knows their goal. Adding is important and brings us closer to the goal.
At what point will tranquility come to Getafe?
Our peace of mind is to win every game we play. That gives us strength for the next one. Our drive is what we do in every game. The most important moment of the week is in two hours and the relevant thing is what we add there.
How is Arambarri who was substituted on Saturday?
He didn’t want to force. He is always at a high level. She noticed that she was not one hundred percent and asked for the change. You have to be patient with him. There are players who are highly demanded and you have to take care of them and manage the breaks and recoveries well.
