Last year’s derby against Espanyol, the day we won the League. We won the title, at the home of the citizen rival and it was also one of our best games.

Madrid is always very complicated. And Bayern too.

Most difficult player to stop
Rashford cost us a lot. Also Vinicius, Benzema…

The best rival approach
Inter and their 5-3-2 did it almost perfectly.

It would be unfair to single out just one. I prefer the mix of veterans and the mentality of young people. But what has surprised me most is the human quality of all the players I have had.

Atlético, Betis, Sevilla… They are fields with a great atmosphere
10
Best referee
De Burgos Bengoetxea.
