The Press Room at El Requexón today saw Borja Sánchez speak to the media. He has now overcome COVID-19 and is back in training under Ziganda.
Midway through a week with no fixtures for Los Azules, the winger stated that "it's doing us good to build our fitness, although I'd rather be playing. We are upping our workload and preparing for the game in Logroño."
Regarding the competition that Borja Valle has added in attack, the local lad commented that "we all know him, and he also knows the club and the city. All competition is good for me and for the team. He is going to help us." In addition, asked for the mark he would give the first half of the season, Borja Sánchez believes that "it's better to do that at the end of the season. We have done some things well and others not so well. All that's left to do is to keep working so that the second half of the season is as good as or better than the first."
Asked about the team's improvement when compared to last season, the academy graduate highlighted that "we have greater consistency. Fans are enjoying watching us, since we are showing what it means to us. We have to hold onto the results. We are happy with the work we have done, but we have to get as many points as possible, so that we can finish as close as possible to those at the top of the table."
Finally, ahead of the second half of the season and regarding what the team needs in order to finish towards the top of the table, Borja reasoned that "we have to keep working as we have been and building confidence by winning matches. Points are what allow you to be up there and we have to motivate ourselves to go out there to win every match."
