the match
"It's always better if all the best players are on the pitch for this kind of game, it's a great game between two very good teams. I think a lot of people will be watching this game. With Manchester City, the danger can come from anywhere. We'll have to keep the ball well and defend well when we don't. They have great players, but so do we, so I hope we can put all the ingredients in place to put City in trouble tomorrow."
first place
"First place is important, it's our objective, as well as qualifying for the last eight of course. We have the possibility tomorrow to move into first place, we will try to play a great game to win. First place is an objective because we always want to do our best.
SERGIO RAMOS
"He did great things with Real Madrid, he was a difficult player to play against, he understands the game, in attack and in defence. When he is at his best, he can help us a lot."
the attack
"Our strikers have very different characteristics, they are very offensive. When we have to defend, we all defend together, and against teams who like to have possession like City, we have to play as a team to avoid danger as much as possible. We have to try to keep the ball a bit more as well, and think about ourselves before City. We have to play like we know how to play. We have confidence in ourselves, we know what we are capable of."
