Cerezo, ahead of their Champions League tie wth PSV Eindhoven, said: “I’m happy with the team. They’re doing well.
“They’re human beings, not machines. You tighten a screw and it works. Players have good and bad streaks.
"Julián isn’t playing as well as he should be, but that doesn’t mean he can’t have the game of his life tonight.”
Cerezo also said: "When things are going badly, everyone says it’s over… Every match has its difficulties, and finishing in the top eight is the main objective.”
