Pinto happy with performance

Roger Bogunyà


José Manuel Pinto put in a fine performance last night against Betis, making at least five great stops and this lunchtime he admitted: “I’m proud and happy about how I did”.


Pinto’s figures could hardly be better with just two goals conceded – one against Ceuta and another in San Mames - in his seven appearances this season and he told reporters this afternoon: “I feel good. It’s important to keep a clean sheet, especially in two-legged ties. It’s good for my confidence and it shows how well the team defended”.

They came out prepared to give it a go and they made plenty of chances. We now have a good result, that’s undeniable, but football shows that you can never take anything for granted”.

Pinto also expressed his desire to play in the return game in Seville, explaining: “I’ve got a lot of friends there. I was there for five years and it’s very close to where I was born in Puerto de Santa Maria”

Contract renewal

Pinto, whose contract runs out on June 30th, also told reporters he was not worried about any renewal: “every year since I came here I’ve finished my contract in the summer and I’ve been here for three and a half years now. I’m just focussed on every day that comes along and it’s the boss who’ll make a decision. I’m very happy here and I’d like to stay, but right now it’s not something I’m worrying about”.

Afellay
José Manuel Pinto also spoke about his newest teammate, Ibrahim Afellay. “he’s very excited by it all. He’s picked up Spanish really quickly, which is important, communication is key. It was really nice the way the fans greeted him and that kind of reception always gives you more strength.
