Focused on what remains
Víctor Sánchez trusts in the reaction of the team and points out that "there is nothing that makes me say that we are not going to turn around"
Painful defeat: "We are hurt because it was a game against a rival that did not come well, that wasn’t scoring, that it was difficult to win and we had hopes in turning this situation around. We wanted to win at home and settle in a quiet area. It was a stick because it could give us peace of mind to face what's left of the league with guarantees".
Quique Sánchez Flores: "He also suffers with this situation. We are all in the same boat. The looks focus on the criticism of the coach. He is a coach with a lot of experience, but in hard times he also suffers. We have arrived at this situation because of our fault because we have not done things right. We want to get ahead and go all together in the five league games that remain".
Lack of marksmanship: "It's costing us to score and create. Against Valencia we created several chances and we did not score. And yesterday we had another three or four very clear. It's costing us a lot. Last year we were more effective. We will try to improve. There is no other way but keep on working".
End of season: "We have the feeling that we have to save it all. We are not doing well and our demerit. We must all add and give our best to get it all together".
Mathematics: "There are five games left and we have to continue. Soccer is not mathematical. The demerits of the rivals make us have an advantage, but I think we have better team and more advantage in the classification and there is nothing that makes me say that we are not going to turn around".
Stand support: "We've always had it. People show their discontent and we had other hopes for how they had gone last season. That makes us frustrated and the people too. When the hopes were to be as high as possible, this is like a cold shower. We have to finish well and give us a joy and everything starts this Sunday: it is an important match. If they can, Girona will defeat us".
The risk of the relegation: "While mathematically you do not get it, that risk exists. Whether or not it is possible will depend on the results. We are going to try to reduce it to the maximum by winning this Sunday. Risk always exists; we know... that it will be possible or not, results will say. More than for the situation, the team suffers for not scoring, for not adding points and for not reaching this end of season as we all would have liked. That is the main frustration and that is what we all want to change.".
Second round: "We have not been well. The dynamic has been complicated. The balance of the second round is bad; very bad. We have arrived here through our own poor performance. The big fault is the players, we have five days to improve the results".
Girona: "You will see a beautiful game and we all want to bring out the best in each one. The match of the first round was very hard, difficult to digest. I think they were better. In that game they left us in a delicate situation. It is not that there is a feelingt for revenge but the derbies want to end up winning them and more now that we are playing a lot. "
