The UD Las Palmas player, Enrique Clemente, appeared before the media ahead of the match against CD Leganés, emphasizing the importance of maintaining the team's identity and continuing to grow in a category he knows well.
Clemente highlighted in a press conference that "our best way to win is through the ball. It will continue to be our identity, it is a hallmark of our club and our island."
These were some of his statements:
"I am very eager to face the match at home and enjoy it with our people."
"Leganés has started well, they have a good foundation, a lot of quality, and a high technical level. Surely, they will be a rival aiming to be at the top."
"The other day I was able to finish the 90 minutes well. It is true that during this time we have done a good job, not just me, but also the medical staff and physiotherapists."
"The team is calm. I think one advantage for us is that we know the category. We had moments where we were able to stay in the game, without losing our heads and without making a catastrophe out of what happened. We need to keep going and focus on the match we have at home."
"I think we have ended up with a very balanced squad. We have kept players from the previous season, and that is very important. It is a good sign that the last day of the transfer window was calm, it shows that good work has been done. We have a very competitive team to aim for everything."
"The coach asked me to put my strengths at the service of the team. I am happy to do everything he asks of me. I think we have a great coach, with a wide variety of concepts."
"He has done fantastically well. His debut at home was almost without warming up, and he played a more than remarkable match. In Ceuta, he was also very good. The position is well covered, and he has shown that he can deliver more than enough."
"When you are down to one less player, it becomes much more complicated. Girona's momentum was to attack, we were down to one less and much more physically worn out. Because of that desire to scrape something, you expose yourself a bit more."
