Vallejo: "We need to change the first half showing"
Manu Vallejo reflected positively on the point earned against RCD Mallorca, but told VCF Media that he was aware that improvement was required.
Seeing the point as positive
It feels like a good point right now. I think that, when we cool down a little, we’ll need to look back at this and change the showing that we provided at the start of the game. However, right now it looks like we gained a point, because we had been losing 0-2. We need to change what we showed in the first half, and play like we did later from the start.
Problems in defence
The opposition went ahead from two moves, doing very little. It is also to their credit. We must not concede anything to the opposition, so that we get what we deserve. We are fully committed so that this does not happen to us.

Fighting to the end
The positive is what we have been demonstrating. We give everything and fight to the end, but that should not blind us to what we must improve. We know that the team will fight to the end, but we have to change what happened in the first half and grow.
A competitive league
This team are more than capable of beating any rivals at any ground, and we have shown it. We have to influence what we have been talking about and we go to Seville with the utmost desire to win, because this club deserves to go for the victory in every game.
