I see him very happy, happy and motivated and has to be important. I am one of the culprits that Ferran was in the Barça. Have all the confidence in him play where play. Against the Cádiz was one of the best and needed it. We give him confidence so that it was important, already has been it and has to be it. Has this capacity to mark differences and have blind faith in him", aimed Xavi.

It is an exceptional player, has added football, is totally determinant for the Madrid. It is necessary to watch it closely. Ronald is a winner of duels, also in the aerial game. It is very powerful and in defence one of the best of the world. It is fundamental play where play", affirmed.
The rest of the team

It marks differences with goals and passes and gives us this pause that does us fault in the half. It is a very sensitive drop for us like the one of Dembélé or Lewandowski. To Estanis already know it of the past year, has a lot one against one, has goal and is in a good moment. With the drop of Robert needed an attacker and can help us. Alarcón the other day went in with the marker against. Have a lot of confidence in him, is versatile, can play in the centre or in band. The team keeps growing, are to the doors of a final of Glass and in the League are still in fight. The balance has to be positive, not to centre us in the two last parties", concluded the one of Terrassa.
