The Q&A
Do you expect a very defensive opponent tomorrow?
We admire Pacheta a lot from the staff, he is a brave, noble and hard-working coach, like his teams. It is a happy team that could already win in Seville. They press, they don’t raffle the ball. It is a team that does things very well. I hope things work out for us. You have to go out in a rush and score soon. If not, it will be complicated.
Will he have Koundé tomorrow?
We are in negotiations and we are convinced that tomorrow he will be registered to help us.
What do you think of the Champions group?
We will try to win everyone, but it is the most difficult group in the last 20 years. It is a challenge. Go for it.
Is it essential to bring sides?
There are different scenarios. I’m looking forward to the end of the market to know what we have. Many things can happen, but you have to adapt.
If Aubameyang leaves, will Memphis continue?
I do not rule out any situation. Neither from Aubameyang nor from Memphis Depay. Lots of things can happen. I contemplate everything. Let’s see what situation we have and where we are in five days.
Bucket is a real option as a lateral?
He is playing very well, with a lot of personality. It’s not easy at his age. He has a tremendous physique, the other day he was at a very high level. Barça’s demands force you to play well every day.
How do you rate Ter Stegen’s season?
It has a different leadership, from professionalism, order, discipline. He is not listened to much, but he makes himself heard. Last season he saved us in many games. In Mallorca, in San Sebastián… And now he has started with several decisive stops. He is a goalkeeper with a lot of personality and I am convinced that he will help us a lot.
