“The club is working very well and we have all grown with the important results obtained in La Liga. You have to play, not think too much. It will be a good evening in the Champions League.
“(We will face them) with enthusiasm, adrenaline, nerves, fears, responsibility… Conveying to the team what I feel, that the team is doing well.
“Any player who is in the quarter-finals, almost among the best four in Europe, is excited. We need to strengthen the mental part.
