Quotes Pedro Martínez

“We’re doing well in this competition, which is a very balanced one. It’s very hard to win games because all the teams are of the highest level, and we’re competing very well. I think we should be very happy with how things are going, but there are still ten games ahead of us. So we need to stay calm and not take anything for granted, neither in terms of ambition nor caution. In other words, we have to keep our feet on the ground and continue working. It’s true that it’s good to take stock of these 18 wins now because there’s a break in the competition for the Copa del Rey, and well, we’re in a very good position. If at the start of the season we had said we would reach this break with 18 wins, I think people would have said that would be fantastic. So we feel we’re doing well, but the competition isn’t over”
