The Frenchman spoke about his happiness with his centre-back partner getting the winning goal: "It's Diego's first goal and it's given us the three points"

Jules Koundé, who once again played the full ninety minutes, spoke to the media after the win over Leganés: "I try to get into good positions for rebounds in order to score. I'm delighted for Diego, as it's his first goal and it's given us the three points".

"Playing as much as I am now is giving me confidence. I can give the team a lot of energy, breaking through the lines when there are gaps and today, we were able to make the difference. We had to suffer and we should have scored in the first half. The second half was harder and we didn't play with the flow to our game that we wanted".

Koundé rounded it off by saying that "we have a good group, with a lot of new boys like myself. Everyone wants to compete and to play. There's a lot of energy and concentration in training, and this can be seen in the games".
