Real Sociedad midfielder Markel Bergara: Moyes excited by this challenge

Real Sociedad midfielder Markel Bergara has welcomed the appointment of new coach David Moyes.

Yesterday, Moyes held his first open training session since taking charge last week.

Bergara said: "At the moment they are harder training sessions, there is a lot of focus on intensity, getting stuck in, pressurizing our opponents. They've been short but intense sessions and we've been enjoying them.

"I get the feeling the new coach is excited about the new challenge and has arrived with definitive ideas. He knows what he wants to get out of us and already knows us well. He wants us to play with plenty of intensity and this is clear from our training with him. We've had short sessions, using a reduced playing area, short quick ball movement drills…He wants us to be on top of our rivals and this is they way were working."
