Cifuentes on Dunne: "He deserves everything. Players show character not only in the good moments but also when things are not going their way. When he was not starting, he was always first in training, supporting his team-mates. I’m very happy for him. Quality human being."

Cifuentes on transfers: "It’s not my job. I’m a head coach but I’m sure there are ways to be creative and show how important this club is. The way we are trying to play can be attractive for many clubs to bring young players here. I think there are many ways to find a way."

No one wants to lose games but I don't think that was terrible from
