We are ready to beat real Madrid for the following reason

 Arteta on why he wants to win despite already being 3 goals ahead: “It’s the way that we feel more comfortable and it’s how we play football in to be better than our rival.”

Arteta: “We prepare penalty kicks every week.”

Arteta: “Fear? I wouldn’t use that word. Respect, admiration for what they’ve done in the competition as a club over the years. The history that they have and the values that they defend. Unbelievable, amazing. An inspiration to any coach or manager.”

Arteta on blocking out external noise: “Impossible. Outside, no. We can do it on the pitch. I understand the narrative that will fuel them.”

Arteta on Real Madrid comeback: “It’s part of their history and they’ve earned the right to talk about these scenarios. Our mindset is different in how we have the best chance to be better than them.”

Arteta: “The positive one Ben White, he will be in the squad. Thomas Partey is available. Jorginho unfortunately is not here. He hasn’t recovered.”

Raya on Spanish press talking about the comeback: “They’re trying to make the best for the club and for the game they want to play and that’s totally valid.”

David Raya on preparing penalty kicks: “That will be on the pitch. I won’t answer this question.”

Raya: “We need to be ready for anything that could happen.”

Raya: “The mood is great. No nerves. Confidence in being able to replicate what we did in the first game. We are here for the win.”

Raya: “We have the momentum. The way we play in the first leg is incredible. We’re here to create our own history to win the game.”

Raya: “You try to focus on what you can control. You can control your actions and what you do. You cannot control the noise on the outside. You have to be focused. Believe in yourself which is the most important thing.”

Raya: “I wasn’t impressed because I know how good Jakub [Kiwior] is and I’m confident with him stepping in for Gabriel. I wasn’t surprised with his performance. He was very good and he shows it every day in training. It was a matter of time before he showed his quality.”
