But cold, having 27 points at this point and in the Cup semifinals we would all sign. This does not stop and the past for good or It's not good for bad, you have to live in the present. But you have to assess what the team does. “

We always think about adding, without focusing on the classification. The classification can be seen on matchday 38. We have a very important challenge and we are going to fight it to the last ounce of strength. We are going to do it all together. We know that winning matches in the First Division is tremendously difficult. How do you get your chest out … Here we are not going to allow let that happen. “
