The players can go through moments of doubts and we can help him to look for the best of himself same, but at the end always is in hands of the player", declared.

"It is necessary to accept it and assume it, it is necessary to give opportunities to other players", signalled.

Finally, the Dutch left clear that it wants to fichar this winter, but admitted that everything goes to depend of the club and of the economic muscle that have to do it. "With Ramon Plans always speak of the future, of what can fichar and where need more, but knowing the moment of the club economically, can not ask a lot. Already I have said several times that is missing us something more. If there are possibilities, will try to look for signings", finalised.
