"The Pubill and Hancko partnership? You can clearly see what both can contribute. They connect well because of their characteristics. They need to improve some things, like everyone. They are giving us things that the team is doing very well. The other day, [Jose Maria] Gimenez was good, [Clement] Lenglet didn't have a good afternoon, but we need everyone. The team belongs to everyone, not just 10 players."
"The objective is to go through and reach the next round, and then go as far as possible."
Atletico Madrid need everyone to work together to build a winning run. Atleti lost 3-0 to Rayo Vallecano in LaLiga, three days after beating Barcelona 4-0 in the Copa del Rey semi-final first leg. The team has managed consecutive wins only once since the turn of the year and sits fourth in LaLiga while occupying a Champions League play-off place. A tie against Club Brugge will decide qualification for the last 16, with the first leg in Belgium on Wednesday. Marc Pubill and David Hancko show complementary defensive qualities but require improvement, and recent defensive performances have been mixed. The objective is to progress to the next round and then go as far as possible.
