Filipe Luis : "I wish Madrid luck"

Filipe Luis has spoken at a press conference after training on Friday in Majadahonda Sports City, he commented on everything that is happening in the club ant the moment. The team looks very solid defensively because the players know each other well . "The team is in a great moment, due to the fact that almost all players are the same for the last 3 years. Other teams in the league teams have been dismantled and have lost many players, and we've kept the block. Falcao was a great leader on our team, but has been replaced by the 'Guaje' who gives us a lot and plays in a similar way. Playing with Arda is great because we understand each other from training and playing together for many years."

Regarding the possibility of winning the league, the Brazilian is very clear. "We're talking about two teams that are unmatched by others, the league is unfair because Madrid and Barcelona have a vastly larger budget than others. We have to fight with our weapons. With hard work and humility we'll try to get closers . The team always maintained the base it has, but it is difficult to win the league," he said.

Given the possibility that Diego Costa is named by Del Bosque to play with La Roja, Filipe commented that " Diego is in great form, it is a very difficult decision to have to make, deciding on a country or another is very complicated, but at the same time he is privileged that he has to choose between the two best in the world. Hardly anybody has that opportunity and we are here to support him," he said .

Given the likelihood that Koke will play in the Spanish side, Filipe sees his teammate as a versatile player who can take any position on the field. "Nothing surprises me with Koke, because three years ago he was a kid recently promoted from the reserves and quietly he’s been moving forward he always gives hundred percent." he said .
