Sergi Darder, Mateo Joseph and Manu Morlanes discuss the defeat to Real Sociedad

The trio reflect on a tough 1-0 defeat to Real Sociedad

Sergi Darder, Mateo Joseph and Manu Morlanes spoke to the media after our 1-0 defeat to Real Sociedad. Find out what they had to say below: 

Sergi Darder:

On the game: A tough match and a difficult week. Our desire to do things has kept us from winning. Today's blow is hard, we have to look for luck. We have to score points and start winning.

On what is next up: What we have to start doing is gain confidence and believe in ourselves. We are experienced people who have been through this before. We have to know how to handle it. We'll get through it, I'm convinced, but words alone aren't enough, we have to start winning.

Mateo Joseph:

On the game: We know what we have to do, which is to work hard to make things better than they have been so far. We have to be self-critical and try to improve where we are failing.

On personal feelings: We have to score more goals than our opponents to win the game. The first half was even, but in the second half they managed to maintain their lead.

On the new beginning: Some new, positive energy will do us good. It will bring us a lot, and we're really looking forward to him helping us and us helping him.

Morlanes:

On the defeat: It's a difficult moment, the most difficult since I've been here. This is part of soccer; every year there are quite a few teams, and luckily we still have time to turn this streak around. It's time to analyze the situation. The team is in a bad way.

On the match: We weren't brave enough and we didn't create enough. We're going to try to fix this starting today. There are 12 games left.

On what is missing: In football, sometimes a change of coach helps. It's essential that we all stick together now.
