Gabi: "The Super Cup is a major title; we’re eager to play it"
Gabi has recognised before the media that the Super Cup is an important title for all, because it is a chance to "win titles and to keep growing as a team".
Atlético’s player appeared before the media prior to the Spanish Super Cup fixture. "The team is eager to start. The Super Cup is a major title because none of us has it. Even though it’s obvious that we’re in August, the team is in very good conditions to face this game", he said.
For the midfielder, the double confrontation with Real Madrid is not a rematch, but rather an occasion for the group to keep growing. "It’s an opportunity to keep growing as a team, to keep winning titles which, in the end, is the most important thing for the Club and for the players. Another opportunity to win a title", he pointed out.
This is an opportunity to keep growing as team
The midfielder admitted that the Club has made a great effort to bring great players. "The players that have gone have been replaced well. Top players have come to play. The team's basis and a game idea that does not change, starting there, the team is going to continue competing", he said.
At the same time, he wanted to remind everyone that the philosophy of the team is clear, and will not vary regardless of the opponent they face. "Our game idea is that of last year. We have a clear idea of a solid team that defends very well, knows how to counter the opponent with big fold backs, coming out to attack. Our game will not change whoever comes, and we’ll keep doing what we did last year", he said.
