-"We put in a very good game in attack and in defence".
-"Although we're in preseason, it's always positive to see the team perform like this".
-"We're a team that are going to score goals. We have to attack and make that slight improvement in defence that we need".
-"We're in no rush. Kiko arrived from Spain just a few days ago and today we preferred to field Keylor".
-"When I arrived, I spoke to Iker and Sergio and knew what the situation of each one was. Sergio has known from day one that I want him to stay and I'm sure that he'll stay with us".
Carvajal: "The team is constantly improving".
"The team dynamic is really good. The side is constantly improving, we do what the coach asks us to and we leave games happy. We are all trying to work well to help the team".
