I'm very happy. We knew how important these three points were, especially as this match came after the international break. It's difficult to manage because we had a lot of players involved, most of them had travelled and played matches. It was the moment to win these three points.
"I think we have the right qualities to come out of this moment. I believe in the players. I think we have to remember who we are and who the players are because we have very big players and have to work on their confidence in themselves."
Joao Cancelo put in another impressive showing for Barcelona against Atletico on Saturday night in La Liga as the Catalan giants ran out 2-1 winners and moved seven points clear at the top of the table.
When I set out there were no role models, no Spanish players, Martinez says. Only Nayim, from Ceuta. England was unknown. It's the Third Division. You've spent your whole life learning you have to look after the ball, then you get there and the first thing they say is: Second ball'.
They are paying the consequences of the lack of leaders, players with good technique and confidence in the youngsters. In Italy, Lamine Yamal and Musiala would probably play in Serie B to gain experience. And that can't be.
I'm happy with Marcus, he plays well. The last few weeks he's had problems, he's been injured, so it's an opportunity for him. There are other options, Fermín, Gavi. I'm happy that Gavi is at a great level.
Yes, he will do the same thing that he does on the pitch, he shows it in training every day. If they know how to pray? They better! We have great players too who we can perhaps spread out and not play 1 vs 1 because he is so decisive. We have the tool to try and counteract him.
