“We want to do our match and try to win”
Quique Sánchez Flores shows his optimism to win but appeals the team to be humble
Espanyol is ready to play against Real Sociedad. After a draw and a defeat, the white and blue team will try to add the first three points this season. “We want to win to reduce nervousness and tension. We want to do the match we have planned and get a good result”, he said.
“We are conscious that the process is going to be hard. It will be easier or more difficult. What worries me more is that the players read each situation and that the team improves. We can’t put more pressure on their shoulders. We have only played two matches”, he said.
“The team will improve but the players need more confidence to advance. We still have some doubts and we still go inside the dressing room regretting some mistakes we have done. It is not the first time that I found players with doubts”, he said.
“Real Sociedad is a team that likes to play with the ball. They like to play from behind and they will put us in trouble. They have very good players”, he said.
About the squad, he said that he is happy with the work done. “The club has worked hard. We have signed 11 players and many others have left. We can’t say that we are the best team because there are other better than us. We have a good group but a lot of work to do”, he said.
“You will see Tamudo often because we wanted people that connected with the supporters and the history of the club. He explains us things that we don’t know and are very interesting for us”, he said.
