Our best version is when the team enjoys on the field.

“We have worked well this week. We need to improve the version from the other day to reach twenty points as soon as possible.”

“To achieve the best version, we have to improve in everything; in attack and defense, be protagonists with the ball, and without the ball, prevent Real from reaching the final third of the field. They are good in this area.”

“We have a squad to achieve good results, and at times we have done so. But we must keep suffering to improve further.”

“The strength of a team lies in the group, and we have a competitive squad. I cannot focus on the absences.”

“To overcome them, we will have to play at two hundred percent.”

“I have talked about it with the players. We have to be a strong team, with and without the ball. Our best version is when the team enjoys being on the field. And that is something I have missed in some matches.”

“When Livakovic arrived here, the first thing I did was talk to him and explain the physical, technical, tactical, and mental sensations I need in a goalkeeper, both in attack and defense. We were already in competition, and I told him that he needed a process. I told him he was a very good goalkeeper but that he needed this process to understand the game, the language, and the way the team plays. For example, when we lost 0-4 against Levante, the alarms went off. And he was not ready to play, in his head yes, but not under the conditions I require.”

“Livakovic is a spectacular person, but he has a timeline with objectives different from Girona's. He needs to play for the World Cup, not for Girona. He told me this himself; he is a sincere person. He told me he didn’t want to be here, that he wanted to play for another team because if he played with Girona, he wouldn’t be able to play for another team. The rules state that, per season, a footballer can only play for two teams, and he had already done so with Fenerbahce.”

“The fact that Livakovic didn’t play the Cup is not a technical decision. He was supposed to play, and he told me he wouldn’t. Gazzaniga played in Ourense with the flu and a fever of thirty-eight degrees. Right now, I only have one goalkeeper available.”

“Gazzaniga’s commitment is beyond any doubt. Until the winter transfer window, I know we have a problem. And I am not defending my position but defending the goalkeeper who has been here for three years, which is Gazzaniga.”

“Although what I am explaining is a private matter, I have to share it because the fans need to know.”
