These were some of his statements:

We expect a tough match, a team that is also going through a good dynamic, good players, clear ideas, but with all the excitement to play a good game and win. That is what we want.

I think there are alternatives beyond that. When we talk about positions in football, we tend to label them with certain characteristics. Depending on the characteristics of the player you put in, the team can benefit from different things.

At first, we will be able to count on Álex and Opoku. We will see when they are ready; if they can help from the start or if, on the contrary, we think of them as the minutes go by and depending on the needs.

The one who has relapsed is Recoba; it is advisable to stop due to discomfort.

The issue of the full-back is what people are talking about. With Enzo, I have full confidence.

I would like to have the entire squad and have everyone available, but we have to trust those who are here.

In other countries, there is a break for international matches; here in Spain, I think it is clear. Personally, I think there should be a break in the Second Division. For the club, it is a luxury to have international players, but on the other hand, it is always nice for everyone to have all their players available.

As for Enzo, we will see if it becomes a regular thing; it depends on the recovery of the players.

Eibar continues to maintain certain characteristics from last year; it is a dangerous team on the counterattack, but it is also a team that concedes.

What I aim for is not to denaturalize the team. Hopefully, we will have the consistency and solidity we showed against Burgos during the first hour of the match.

I see everyone eager to contribute. There are matches where Jefté is not a starter, but he is helping; Sandro as well. I highly doubt that any footballer is content with not starting.

The news about Kirian is the best we have received so far. Imagine a person who has to live with a circumstance like that; behind a person who plays football, there are so many things. A weight has been lifted off his shoulders.
