Real Betis wing-back Juan Miranda feels he must step up his game this season.

Miranda has taken the No3 shirt this term.

“The club is growing, we are doing very well, a great team is being built this year. The important thing is to go game by game and fight for great goals," he said from Mexico today.

“It's true that it's a number that I've always liked. At Betis it means a lot for Gordillo . This season I hope to take a step forward that I think I need to take now. At 23 years old, it is the ideal moment to take it."
