I come back through the big door
“Very happy, to be able to be, I had already been very happy to be summoned, to see my teammates, to train … Life hits me, but I always get up. I have a family, my teammates, the physios, the doctors … When I’m not on the pitch, I try to do my best from the outside. It’s not being easy, something has always happened to me since I arrived, but I have the strength to fight and get up. I’ve come back with a goal and very happy. “
It has been a difficult few weeks of work and good attitude
“There are times when it doesn’t depend on you and you can’t do anything. If your head tells you that you’re wrong and you’re going to sink, it’s worse. I’m lucky to be in a great club. There are people out there who don’t have jobs and which is really bad, but I have the doctors and a lot of people and I have to give thanks. I’ve always gotten up and it will be like that. “
Luis Suárez double.
“I was not there and Suárez was not scoring; I go back and put in two, what a bastard. I hope he continues like this. I’m very happy, the more goals the better for Atleti. We will continue winning and competing with respect among ourselves, he went out and scored two and then I went in and scored one. If we want to win something big, it has to be like that, like when we won the league, one came out, another came in and was up to the task, there was a great team. “
Is it scary to dream of the League?
“No, no, no! I am a fighter, a winner. It took me a lot to get to Atleti, it has not been easy, those who do not dream big are better off not living. We have a very large structure, we have everything to fight among the big”.

Minutes: In eleven or on the bench, we are all important. I am happy to have minutes in the Cup and now in the League, I will continue working to have more opportunities.
