Luis García Plaza spoke to the media after our return to LaLiga ended with a 1-1 draw with Real Betis. Find out what the boss had to say about the performance, individuals and the return of fans.
On the match...
"I'm a bit disappointed with the draw. The first half was pretty good, but in the second half we could have done better. It's a point, we have to be happy, but I think we could have won.
"I have the feeling we could have won. We played a very good first half, their goal came from a set piece. We got a point and I have the feeling that we could have won.
"We tried to be us: in the first half we played in the opponent's half against an opposition that has a lot of possession and quality. Even so, the feeling I have is that we could have won. It's not the same to be losing and then draw than the opposite. We lacked a little more up front although we tried.
"We kept to our ideas of last season and we tried to be us, but we lacked possession in the second half. We have to be satisfied. Anything that can be gained is positive - the opponent is a Europa League team."
On Mboula, Baba and Take...
"Mboula has come here with a lot of confidence. Last year he was out of form and this season he has come back very strong. He has given us many things, but he has to keep working. He has potential and has to give us that top level.
"Baba in LaLiga is going to give us a lot. He steals, presses, comes out and is going to be very important for us. We have lacked a little bit of strength up top, but we are going to get it.
"Take came on very well and is already in shape. He has only been here for three days. My idea is for him to play on the right or inside and where I think he feels most comfortable. He will be important for the team and will give us a lot.”
On the fans...
"When we have suffered they have helped us - I am happy to have seen them and they are going to be very important for us. Let's see if we can open the door for them and let them come in more and more little by little. I don't know why more people can’t come in, I don't understand why only a little more than 8,000 come in, but I don't know.”
