D. Larrubia: “Competition makes us better”

The Blue and White striker spoke to the media at the end of the preseason match against Al Jazira FC. “It's a year to establish oneself and feel like a true footballer,” he commented.

Header for the win

“The coach asks that of me, to get into the box and be decisive. Scoring goals and providing assists are my duties as a winger or attacking midfielder, and it's something I need to improve on.”

Good feelings and victory

“We also did well against Almería; it was our first match, and we left with good feelings. And now we got the victory that we couldn't achieve the other day, and we have one more test before the real competition starts.”

New teammates

“As dressing room teammates, they have integrated perfectly; we have welcomed them with open arms. On the field, each of them will bring different things, and I’m sure it’ll go well.”

Lobete and accumulation of preseason minutes

“Competition makes us better, pushing each other, and if it helps the team's objective, I'm all for it. Last year, I had a minor injury during the preseason and couldn't get enough playing time, but this year it's the opposite, and it will benefit me.”

An exciting season

“It's an important year for all of us who have moved up from the Primera RFEF to the Second Division. A year to establish ourselves, to feel like true footballers, and I trust in my abilities and in the team.”
