"We were humble and respectful towards Ponferradina. We did a very good job. The debut of reserve players is positive for the club. I hope they find success here. All Madridismo is happy. We'll have a relaxed Christmas and we'll return to work on trying to win it all in January."

"I was happy to be the captain tonight and I'm glad for the victory. This is the best club in the world and I'm very happy. We must continue to work like this to celebrate winning something at the end of the season."

Pepe appeared before the media to analyze what you are assuming the start of training camp: "We're back with that desire that we are showing, the team is taking a very high level to start strong."

The issue Kaka is being the big issue of the preseason: "Kaka is a great player, I am very happy to share a dressing room with him, is now with us and we must give all the love to him."

Real, as always, ambitious: "The team has to be prepared for all competitions. We have more experience and that's good. The coach knows what is best for the team and I am to help my club."

Pepe speaks highly of Fabio Coentrao: "No one doubts the ability of Fabio, no doubt about their quality, people have to support him, along with Marcelo is the best side of the world."

The Portuguese also went through it when he arrived at Real Madrid: "The truth is that my transfer was highly contested, thank God I was lucky that things went with me. People love me and I'm delighted. Fabio is a new boy, his entire career with Portugal, had a bad experience in Zaragoza and have the opportunity to play at the best club in the world. sure you also give him their love. "

Real premieres on this tour to the Galaxy: "With each passing year the players have more quality, for sure Thursday will be a difficult game. It's part of football, to play preseason game."

Pepe recalled that are champions in his own right: "We've shown that we are a strong team that plays when you have to play and when to fight fight. We won the league more complicated in the world.

The Belgian Witsel sounds for Madrid: "It's a great player is doing well at Benfica, but it is a thing of the club. If you come is welcome and if you wish the best luck in the world."

And he concluded by praising Mourinho: "It's a coach who demands much of us to win."

Quite how they know is anybody’s guess, but MARCA are reporting that Pepe’s first words upon coming to after being knocked sparko doolally by Iker Casillas against Valencia on Sunday afternoon were “My name is Pablo, what am I doing here?”

The observant among you may notice that Pepe’s name is not Pablo, nor has it ever been.

The Portuguese centre-half was immediately admitted to hospital, where he stayed under observation until Monday night; and while suffering from episodes of minor memory loss, examinations have shown that he didn’t sustain any permanent brain damage – non more so than he had before anyway.

Pepe has since been ruled out of Thursday’s Spanish Supercopa first leg against Barcelona, but the good news is that he’s on the mend and expected to be back in training by the time the weekend is out.
