Paco Jémez recognised his players’ pride has taken a knock following last week’s heavy defeat in Girona, and that tomorrow "they need to demonstrate a different attitude". Regarding comments made by Remy in the press, he stated "Remy is not telling the truth, my opinion is the one that counts because everyone at the club wants the player to come back. My decision was for an act of indiscipline which I am not going to allow. The club have been helping to look for a solution" he concluded in the press room at El Hornillo.
