The Premier League is more competitive than La Liga ... In Spain, football is more technical, the players like to control the ball, they play more football.

I do not know if La Liga is more competitive this season
The season is still long. We have to be patient, because there are many more games to be played. We have not won La Liga yet and still have a long way to go. It's not important how many points we're ahead right now.

It's clear that it's not been a great season for them (Villarreal). They are out of the Champions League and in La Liga they are now getting better in terms of results
Regrettably, I didn't score last season, but I have in the Champions League this year. I want to do the same in La Liga and I hope to do so in Saturday's derby against Atletico Madrid. Playing for Real Madrid is the greatest honour that can be bestowed on a footballer. I'm proud to wear this shirt becau...
In any case, hats off to Mourinho. He is someone I know very well and he says things because he feels that way.La Liga action resumes for Mourinho’s Real on Saturday, when they play city rivals Atletico Madrid.It’s a derby where everyone is watching and I am sure Atletico will want to play a good game
They have gone on a great run of results and that's not by chance; they are first in La Liga and in their Champions League group, playing very good football and scoring lots of goals. Real Madrid have more hunger than Barcelona now.
Mourinho is a winner ... He has come to Spain to win La Liga - and he'll achieve it. He is the ideal coach for this team and [Madrid president] Florentino Perez hasn't made a mistake - he signed the best. Mourinho's work is still in progress, but I see them winning either the league or the Champions Lea...
He is the ideal coach for this team and [Madrid president] Florentino Perez hasn't made a mistake - he signed the best. Mourinho's work is still in progress, but I see them winning either the league or the Champions League, and I think they will win La Liga because they are more consistent [than Barca].
I think that he will win the FIFA Ballon d'Or again ... Not only does he have a lot of quality, but he has also won La Liga, the Champions League, the Spanish Supercup, and has been a key figure all season.
Lucho wants to play in a better league than Ligue 1: Serie A, La Liga and Premier League are examples of those leagues.

I'm having a good streak and I want to keep it this way. I'm always motivated to improve both in training sessions and in fixtures. I love to play above anything else.
