He and Lucas [Vazquez] improved the team. He took his chance and the substitutions added something extra for us. "We can do better, but I wanted us to believe until the end as that is what matters and we accomplished it to get the three points."It is true that in some of the matches we have not played as we wanted but I am very pleased with how we have started the season - two wins in the league and one in the [UEFA] Super Cup. "There are no easy games, Celta were good going forward and both teams struggled with the heat, so I was pleased with the players' attitude."</blockquote>
