The coach of Atlético de Madrid reviewed his team’s debut in the cup tournament. The mattress team is measured today January 6 at Club Deportivo Lugo at the stadium Anxo Carro1/16 last match of Copa del Rey.
RIQUELME, THE RIGHT LANE
“We decide what the opponent suggests, the characteristics of the team we’re going to face, in that system.”
TRANSFER MARKET
“We are well covered, anything that involves adding players that make us improve is welcome. We speak accordingly about what is seen, which the team may have to pay.
THE PLAYERS LOSE
“You can’t be calm because it’s not up to you. The sensations of summer are different from today. What is perceived is that the boys are fine. Some want to play more than they do and find another place, but this is not a guarantee that they will play. Sometimes the emptiness they have, because you are in a competitive place where no one is guaranteed a place, competition for those who accept it is welcome the rest of the time.
AFRICA CUP AND ASIA CUP
“For the teams with more players is more uncomfortable, all the teams know about this option in the tournament, that this situation will appear. “Those with more players will pay for the absences this.”
FIRST ROUND OUT OF CHAMPIONS
“I am not analyzing what is being analyzed now, we value the end of the season. We do not review mid-year. We have continued game after game, with our behavior regime for years and it will not change.
SHORT RECOVERY TIME
“There are a lot of kids who are eager to play to show what they are worth. We will pay the team that thinks about the best to win the game and play a game in accordance with what we represent.”
UP 1-0 AND NOW IT’S GONE
“All fans want to win, they don’t want to lose 4-3, win no matter what. The second half the other day was the best 45 minutes we’ve had in the League. We work to improve the situations we need. But I see the boys very well, I trust these boys a lot. We know what our weaknesses are and we’re working to solve them and continue to improve on everything we do offensively, which is good to see.”
LESS PLAYERS MAY CHANGE THEIR SITUATION
“I think that a footballer’s career does not change in a club for one game, obviously they have a responsibility to do well. For them first, it is good to perform at a good level to feel satisfied with yourself. They all work well. We gave less minutes like Galán, Caglar… the others almost always share the games, Saúl, Memphis, Correa… I hope they have that enthusiasm to play and above all let’s continue in the same line as we did in the second half from Girona, which was very good.”
