News

LUN 22.02.2016

Levante UD. "This team had already deserved a win like this in previous games. Now I'd like us to keep our confidence high and pick up some points on the road." (Rubi)

 

 

Getafe CF. "We're training well, but aren't competing well." (Fran Escribá)

 

 

 

UD Las Palmas. "We managed to hold out and not concede any more goals, then in the final stages we had our chances. You never know what can happen against Barcelona, it really depends on how inspired they feel on the day." (Quique Setién)

 

 

 

FC Barcelona. "I'm happy with the team because, with games every three days, all I can ask is that we compete well and that's what we're doing." (Luis Enrique)

 

 

RCD Espanyol: "My players are very committed. We've picked up three important points, but we have to carry on in this vein if we are to get out of this predicament." (Constantin Galca)

 

 

 

RC Deportivo. "We're a humble outfit and will try to achieve our goal as soon as possible. We know how tough the second half of the season is and don't want to head into the final stretch still in need of more points." (Víctor Sánchez)

 

 

Real Betis. "I'm very happy with my players in terms of their attitude and commitment. The team knows how to play and has a real goal threat, but we still have plenty of work to do."  (Juan Merino)

 

 

R. Sporting. "I can't ask any more of my players, they give it their all out there every Sunday. There are six or seven teams scrapping it out and I think we're all going to suffer at times." (Abelardo)

 

 

 

RC Celta. "We controlled the game against a side that was above us in the league and I believe we got the better of them with good football." (Eduardo Berizzo)

 

 

 

SD Eibar: "We managed to get it back to 3-2 with two attacks that didn't look like causing danger, but we weren't able to complete the comeback." (José Luis Mendilibar)

 

 

 

Rayo Vallecano. "Coming back from 2-0 down against Sevilla is very commendable and, leaving aside the opening minutes, I can be pleased with the performance and the attitude shown. This is the team's best spell all round." (Paco Jémez)

 

 

 

Sevilla FC. "These things are part and parcel of the game, but we're on the right track. There are some areas in which we have to get back to basics, and we need to be more resolute in defence." (Unai Emery

 

 

 

Málaga CF. "The fans helped secure this point, as well as the 11 men on the pitch." (Javi Gracia)

 

 

 

Real Madrid. "You lot [journalists] think that the league is a lost cause for us, but my players and I don't. The team aren't going to switch off." (Zinedine Zidane)

 

 

 

Granada CF. "My players gave everything. The only thing missing was the result." (Sandoval)

 

 

 

Valencia CF. "At the moment, we need to win all our games to keep the momentum going. The dressing room in this last week has changed significantly in terms of its mood. Getting the first win last week at home obviously was a big moment but today, away from home, it's very difficult to win in LaLiga away from home." (Gary Neville)

 

 

 

Athletic Club. "We tried to mount a comeback, but we didn't get things right. At times we were very hasty. We lacked control and weren't precise enough in our play." (Ernesto Valverde)

 

 

 

Real Sociedad. "The younger players' efforts were fantastic; they showed character. We're really happy, both because it's our fourth win in a row and because it comes in the derby. I'm really pleased with all the team's hard work." (Eusebio)

 

 

 

Atlético de Madrid. "Obviously we would've liked to have won and that's what we go out on the pitch aiming for, but the result keeps us six points ahead of Villarreal, which means we're on course to meet our targets." (Diego Pablo Simeone

 

 

Villarreal CF. "The fact that Villarreal are up there, just six points behind two big teams in Real Madrid and Atletico at this stage of the season, is a big achievement." (Marcelino)
