Álvaro Arbeloa spoke to the media after Real Madrid’s 2-0 victory over Espanyol at the RCDE Stadium, addressing the team’s performance as well as discussing Vinicius, Mbappé’s trip, and the condition of several injured players.

"I don't compare players. We need everyone. To win any match, you need the commitment of every player. It hurts when we see that all the teams run more than us, not only when we don't have the ball, but also when we do. We need everyone's commitment to press, to defend, to attack."

"Talent alone isn't enough. I like to see players understand that commitment is important and that they own the values of Real Madrid. We haven't built Real Madrid with players who go onto the field in tuxedos, but with players who finish with their shirts covered in sweat, mud, effort, sacrifice, and perseverance. When talent is combined with commitment and effort, that's what makes us the best team in the world."
