The whole squad is aware of the importance of the match against Granada CF. Throughout the week, Gabi Calderón has placed great emphasis on regaining the balance that the team had against Espanyol. He appears to be satisfied with the work done. "This week we have worked to regain the balance that we had against Espanyol. It does not depend on whether we have a defence of five or four. It is about a block of players that cannot be undone, that is the main thing. The details are not as important as the team itself".

Verdú: "I don't like talking about individual players. It is true that I have made some changes and other players are now playing more. When I got here this team needed a boost in morale and the support of their manager. In any team there are players who, depending in the results, will be fielded or who will be sidelined".

Perquis: "Is nearly ready but needs rhythm. Yesterday he trained throughout the session, he is better. I am sure he will be ready to play in the UEFA match because he is much better".

The situation: "The team is hurting. In the situation in which we find ourselves, all the players are hurting and we need continuity to regain balance and confidence. Despite the defeat in Valencia, I can see players who know that it is a six-point match. Except for fifteen minutes of the match in Vigo and the match against Valencia, I am happy with the team's work".

A six-point final, "Sunday's match is a six-point final because as time goes by we have less margin for error. To start calculating possibilities without having won the next match is a waste of time".

Opinions: "I respect the opinions of all the players but I will always believe in the clear logic of mathematics. Until the mathematics says otherwise, I'll keep believing. We have to win, our team has to win. "

Rubén and Molina: "I don't want to talk about individuals on the team. They are both well-known players. I am looking for balance and I am going to switch things around to find it. Both Rubén and Molina are well-known. The same thing occurs every week, we field a team and then we consider the alternatives. We do the same every week with two or three specific players because we are looking for that balance and to do so we have to look at all the variables. We talk with each player and with the team, we also have video montages. Juan Carlos has qualities that are suited to playing on the wing. If we play with three in defence it is not so complicated for him given the qualities he has".

Full stadium: "We have experience and know full well what it is to play in a full stadium, that does not worry us. The players are more eager to win that game than anyone, the solidity of the team is what we are worried about".

Leo Baptistao: "He hasn't played for five months and he needs some time to pick up the pace, he is feeling it in some parts of his body. He needs to pick up pace and this week he is doing much better. The UEFA match is just around the corner so the players are going to get match minutes".

Europa League: "At this moment we are focussed on Granada, nothing else matters. After that we can think about that game but we have to win every fixture and we cannot afford to lose concentration, we have to win this one".
