“Jesé and Jonathan Viera are First Division players”

Las Palmas arrives with casualties, but has Jesé and Viera. “They have an excellent squad. A lot of quality with Jesé and Jonathan Viera, who are players of a very high level, from the First Division. In any situation they don’t need too much to hit and score. It is a very associative team, but not only them. Everyone has an associative team profile. They have taken a step forward compared to other seasons in intensity and in recovering many balls in the rival field. It is a team that does a ‘press’ after loss very fast. We must be attentive and focused so as not to make mistakes ”.

Sounds like a big game. “We are two teams that like to see, with opposing styles. Las Palmas with a more associative and combinative football. Of those who pass more shorts in the League and we, with faster attacks. We are two colorful teams that arrive in good time, in good shape and with two excellent squads “,

Support from the fans. “We cannot ask the fans for anything. It’s amazing what he gives us, from what I feel on the street there will be an excellent entrance and we can only thank him. And the way is in the field of game leaving everything to us ”. “You always have to try to hook more people. Sometimes the schedules do not make it easy for people, children, to come. But tomorrow it seems that it will not rain and it will not be windy like today, also at a perfect time for whole families. We want them to enjoy a victory and leave happy ”.

Genaro’s absence due to sanction. Double pivot with Ramón and Escassi? “We have other options that we also value. That is a possibility but we have to see others in the face of the party’s plan. Without Luis Muñoz we are more weakened in the center of the field “

How are Kevin, Jozabed, Calero and Dani Martín headdresses? “Kevin is not 100%, but he is much better. The others, all available and in perfect condition. Hicham? He completed a good week of training and is at the disposal of the coaching staff, he is available ”.

State of the pitch. “The grass looks worse than it really is. It has a yellowish color that you think is wrong. But then the floor is firm and pretty good. It is not as we are used to having it and we are all concerned. After the Las Palmas game it will change again ”.

Peña Sport, Copa rival. “I had to play in Tafalla with the Sporting subsidiary. I know the stadium. The playing field is wide with natural grass. In the Copa del Rey, any rival can put you in trouble. We will face the match to get through the tie and get as far ahead as possible. It is a competition that I really like. With Sporting I was able to reach a quarter-final. We were eliminated by Valencia, who finished champion. It is a very good opportunity to have the whole squad in rhythm and enjoying the minutes ”.

Pressure to beat Las Palmas? “Pressure is the opposite. It’s being wrong if things don’t work out for you. The pressure in a place like this is good. It makes us all have our ears up and be awake and that no one can fall asleep. The demand is maximum in a club like this one ”.

Quality jump. “It gives you to chain victories. It is important for the confidence of the team. It will be a complicated game, nothing easy. It is difficult to get the six points, but we have our people and we go with ambition. We are prepared to suffer but we feel strong as locals ”.

Special vigilance for the stars of Las Palmas? “We focus more on ourselves than on what the rival can do, we are not in the head of their coach. We will try to minimize the virtues of Las Palmas and watching over players will be important ”.
