“When you are successful and have that attitude that footballers have, it is really difficult to fail. We have seen a very brilliant Spain in all facets of the game, in the offensive and defensive phases, enjoying and making the Córdoba fans enjoy”insisted the coach, who had an aside with Morata.
“Both in Murcia and Córdoba the fans have recognized the figure of Álvaro Morata and I hope that this happens throughout Spain, that the importance of this player for Spanish football and for the National Team is recognized and valued. He is a very beloved person in the locker room, he is our cement, our glue for the cohesion that we long for and that reinforces our feeling of team.”said the coach, very proud of the step forward of his players after the plague of injuries that has hit Spain during this break.
“This is very complicated and we have to continue working as a team. I enjoy these types of situations that happen because many footballers have the opportunity to make themselves known. The sad thing is that there are many professionals who do not know them and that is what causes me pain. They are players with a lot of projection although they do not have great media recognition but they are solvent and need time to show their potential”he pointed out.
