How have you seen the game?

A complicated game, in terms of football we have been missing something, but we have worked and put a lot of energy into it. The tiring Seville has been noticed. It was a serious game. Two beautiful goals and we took three points.

¿What did you think of Ilaix's goal?

Ilaix is ​​growing. Everyone has the right to fail in a game, especially the young. These mistakes you made at the beginning are for learning. He is gaining ground, when he enters he always gives something extra to the team and that is very important. He's fine with the ball, he's physically strong and he's going to be with the first team more.

¿How do you rate the streak of three months without losing in the League??

We have left points where it could not be at the beginning of the season, but the team has had a very good reaction.

Why has it changed to Umtiti?

It is true that he had a card, but he was not doing the pressure well against Osasuna. We have improved in the second part.

Wanting there to be a president?

We have been without a president for a long time. It is important that you come in and talk to people. That the partners decide at the polls. We are not going to influence.

¿Berá the match between Atlético and Real at home?

I'm not going to be home all day. I'm interested in the final result of the derby. But the most important thing was our victory. Any result is good for us.

¿LaLiga is possible?

We have been fifteen games without losing in LaLiga and cutting points from Atlético de Madrid. It is clear that there is a League until the end of the season.

How do you rate the performance of young people?

We are proud to introduce young grassroots players. These young people deserve to have opportunities, Pedri, Ilaix, Mingueza, Araujo and Riqui have a great future and are asking for passage. As a coach I have always done it.
