"My father has spent his entire life in the world of football, so I've lived it from the cradle.
For me it's a way of life"
"My life revolves around football"
"It's difficult, I really didn't think I'd be able to make a living at this, I really do feel fortunate"
"Although it's now become work, for me it's still a hobby"
"I like to enjoy myself while I'm doing it and luckily I'm able to do that"
"Now life has blessed us with a child. We are at last parents. And what's sure and certain is it's been the best
time of my life, the happiest time. Now, my number one priority is my daughter"
"My wife and I are very happy of being parents"
"It's the best thing there is"
"Now I've got to go home. First of all, I see my daughter and give her a kiss, next I make the food and eat.
Then I take a siesta, after that it's on to targeted training, which is really helping me.
I train every afternoon and after the siesta I train too. That's how I spend my days"
"I'm going to try and be a good father"
"I could spend all day looking at my daughter. Life gives you experiences so you can improve things.
The first year I did badly, but the second I did well, and that's how it works"
"I'm sure we'll make mistakes, but both my wife and I will do our best to bring up a well-educated and well-behaved
child. That's my aim in life"
"After my siesta, I usually do targeted training under the instruction of my personal trainer,
who's separate from the club, now it's time for training"
"The body is a world to itself, unfortunately I've had a few injuries. I've tried all sorts of options since I started
looking into things. I've not had any problems for a year and half now, I've enjoyed every day, being able to train
every day and playing regularly. It's a type of work that's really effective at a personal level
and I'm very happy with it"
"Now that time's passed, and the injuries are history I have happier memories of it.
Obviously making your debut in the top flight is something special, something unforgettable but it has to
be said it was a pretty bad day because after two minutes thirty-eight seconds I was injured.
It was a serious injury, the first injury I ever had, I hadn't been injured before or suffered a break"
"To get to the top flight with all the hopes that entails and to last only two minutes thirty-eight seconds,
after all the work it had taken to get there"
"I had a knee injury, a dislocation of the kneecap, which meant I was out for about eight or nine months"
"You learn from everything and that was another experience to learn from"
"I felt like an important player in the two years I spent with Marcelo Bielsa"
"Above all in the final phase of the first season with Bielsa, when we played in two finals"
"With Ernesto until I got injured in February I was the team's top goal-scorer so I felt important,
I felt I was in very good form and I was enjoying myself. Later due to various circumstances I fell down the
pecking order, then my confidence went a bit and my form dipped, all those things are related"
"Now I'm here and I'm obviously a Deportivo Alaves man. I'm clear about that because of the great treatment
I've received day after day and because I'm a sentimental type and
I really feel Deportivo Alaves are my team"
"The truth is I couldn't have done better. I came here with the idea of enjoying myself and becoming
an important player again and here I am"
"To run out at Mendizorroza every weekend is tough. We've been in a very tricky situation this year"
"Not one whistle, they didn't stop cheering us on for the ninety minutes and I think that has had a lot to do with
the changes that have taken place in the team"
"This season it's sort of logical what has happened. I think that there were thirteen changes in the line-up and
we changed coach, it takes time to adapt to all that"
"We changed coach really quickly, after the fourth game, well we hadn't got any points at all.
The club took the decision and we had to deal with another change of coach.
And we had to adapt because they all have totally different styles"
"But the results didn't come. Fortunately, they took another decision which was to replace Gianni De Biasi.
So, Abelardo arrived, and that's turned everything around as far as results are concerned"
"I think more than anything Pitu has brought simplicity"
"Every coach has a totally different way of working, and I think his style suited the present squad"
"We were losing 2-0 at Girona, we were down and out
but suddenly we had those final fifteen minutes in which we turned the game around.
That gave us so much confidence, it changed everything. You feel more confidence in yourself and you start to
play better. You come out at the Mendizorroza, you win and you start to think we're not so bad.
Confidence keeps growing and when each individual player increases in confidence
the whole team improves"
"You increase in confidence, the team plays better, everything clicks. We're on a very strong run right now,
the team are happy and the fans too. Little by little we're reaching our objective for the season"
"I think we're once again showing, like last season, that we can compete with anyone"
"The aim remains the same, but we're going to see how far we can go. We hope for the very best."
