Pau Torres: "I have learned a lot from Ramos and now I will learn from the partner I play with and he from me" | Euro 2020

Pau Torres, Villarreal central defender, spoke to the media in the Ciudad del Fútbol of Las Rozas to analyze the first days of concentration of the Spanish team. The defender will assume a new role in this European Championship after the absence of Sergio Ramos. It comes after winning the Europa League against Manchester United. Pressure “No pressure. All the teammates that are here are because we perform at a high level in our clubs. We are prepared to play with whoever the coach decides. “Absence of Ramos” In the end, when you come here and you’re young, you try to learn from your teammates. I have learned the most from Ramos and now I will learn from the partner I play with and he from me. We are ready. ”Leader of Spain“ We all have to pull the car. If I have to highlight someone, it is Sergio Busquets, who has been champion of everything and our reference. Also Jordi Alba, Azpilicueta… those with the most international appearances. They are our benchmarks. ”Competition in the centrals“ The competition is high, but it is good. It’s what you come to the national team for, to compete with the best. ”Albiol“ He has a lot of experience. He has told me to enjoy it, to be myself and that I am trained to deal with it. He wished me good luck. ”Future“ I have a contract with Villarreal, we have won a European title and I focus on my club. The rumors mean that the work is being good. I’m quiet. That came out a long time ago and my performance has not changed. I am focused on the Eurocup and on doing a good job with my team. ”What Laporte is like“ He is a player who is characterized by the football of our team. He has been under Guardiola’s orders, where they treat the ball very well, and this is what the coach asks of us a little ”.Options for Spain “We are a candidate team for everything that lies ahead of us. We are prepared to win any game. I have just won the Europa League and there would be no better way to end the season than by winning with the national team. ”Gerard Moreno“ I am lucky to enjoy Gerard every week. He has returned to being the Zarra. He is qualified to help the national team and to take us very far in this competition. ”De Gea“ We have talked about the final. David is strong-minded. You have been through many situations and this will not affect you. I have encouraged him where I can. Surely he will not run out of titles this summer ”. Recognizable Eleven“ What Luis Enrique said is reality. We are 24 players and we are all trained to be starters. The eleven you choose will have to be up to the task and the rest ready for when they need it. I’m not worried about eleven. ”Eric García“ He’s very calm for his age. He comes from playing for City and is now signing for Barça. He has very good conditions and I see him perfectly qualified for whatever touches him. “Lack of minutes from the centrals” If the coach has made this call, it is because he believes that those of us who are here are the ones who can best face this European Championship. I am very calm ”.
