What managers say

Diego Simeone: "We want to play a good game and use our style of football. I always interpret games in one way – you want to honour the shirt you're wearing, no matter the competition, and tomorrow we will do that. We're facing a side who are quick on the counter and good in attack. It will be a tough game and I'm expecting a similar game in which they can create chances. Comebacks can always happen."

Tayfun Korkut: "I have confidence in my players. It's another game and another chance to get to know the players. We want a good result and to come back. We are in a process, for the side we want to take a step forward. The side over the past few days have been giving me a good feeling and we have a training session later in which I'll look at the boys too." [via Uefa.com]
