Repeat it again
Quique trusts the team's ability to win, but warns that, again R. Madrid "we will have to do very well"
Quique Sánchez Flores thinks that if his players have been able to make good matches and defeat the first two of the classification could also repeat it in the visit of R. Madrid.
After four consecutive draws, the coach argues that all victories "strengthen and give energy" and reiterates that the team must be prepared to "play to win and when that does not come you have to be perseverant and have hope. I have seen the players calm and confident".
“In the previous years they suffered a lot. It's fine to have memory, but we want to run away from that. What we want is to look up and have another perspective, like last year where we thought we could aspire to important things".
He is not intimidated by the potential of R. Madrid and said that the team "is aware of what they can do. We knew how to win At. Madrid and Barcelona. We did it and I think we are capable of try again. Those of us who work every day know that we must continue on that path to change. We are aware of how important our rival is, as well as the difficulty, but we work daily to make that happen".
He said that for that it must maintain "a lot of success, a lot of efficiency, a lot of concentration and few mistakes. It is about committing as much as possible so that its potential is reduced".
He said that Madrid, like other teams, "the lack of results is what drives them emotionally. They are now having good results and found their tools. If you train, if you persist, which is what I think you will have done, the potential of your team reappears. They have worked to turn their situation inside out, they have found it and they have achieved it" and underlines that" if we want to win, we have to do it very well".
He said that a victory on Tuesday "would open a door to explore another different path. We do not like the situation we are in or the way we explore. We do not like to go to matches with a gloomy feeling. We do not like it. We hope another door opens to see the games with another expectation".
