Luis García: "The only recipe is to persist, because we are on the right path."

Luis García appeared this Thursday at a press conference and stated, "I hope we continue to be a recognizable team, with ideas as clear as they have been so far, both in the offensive and defensive phases. I have no doubt that we are on the right path. Football will reward the players for all the daily effort they are putting in."

Regarding Real Sociedad B, the next opponent: "We respect the opponent, regardless of the fact that they are a reserve team. They know how to play, they have young players with very promising futures. But tomorrow we have to establish our territory and be very clear about what we want to be and do. They are a dangerous team, especially in transition. They are effective in situations near the opponent's area, but we are very well prepared for tomorrow's match."

These were some of his statements:

"The fans deserve a victory. They suffer with us, we feel them close, they help us... and without a doubt, we owe them. I am convinced that tomorrow can be a great day."

"The lack of goals must be treated naturally, just as we have to manage when we don't achieve victory. It's part of the sport, and many times you can't control it no matter how much you want to score. The only recipe for all of this is to persist, because we are on the right path, and the players have great ability to score many goals. And to defend well as they are doing."

"I would be worried if the team hadn't been recognizable in these matches. We have created many opportunities to have more points. I handle it calmly. There's no point in getting nervous in the fourth matchday. We all know we have a young team, practically new, working with different ideas. I am very confident, calm, because I know the path we must follow. We do it all together because the players are committed to this project, to this idea."

"It should always be a source of pride that players from our team are called up by national teams. They (Cedeño and Amatucci) have returned without any injuries. That is very important. We have alternatives to address the midfield options. We are very calm and well-covered in that position because anyone in the squad is of a high level."

"Iván Gil had to stop due to that ankle problem. It was only two weeks. He is fully available. We are fortunate to have very good players. Any of them has the chance to be starters. And if not, they can be decisive in the time they get to play. With the five substitutions, sometimes those who finish are more important than those who start the match."

"We would all like to have ten goals in favor instead of four and to have conceded none. Things happen as they happen. That's why in football, the opponent, like Andorra, ties us in the 85th minute without even taking a shot on goal. We score the goal ourselves. These are circumstances we have to manage, but we must persist in what will bring us the reward that the players and fans deserve."
