Valencia coach Ruben Baraja: I'm enjoying it

Valencia coach Ruben Baraja admits he's enjoying the experience.

The former VCF captain has lifted the team out of the dropzone since taking charge.

He said, "The job gives you time to enjoy small moments. We have been lucky enough to win a couple of home games and put in good performances. We have continuous growth that allows us to have hope. The faster you settle into the role, the better. There will be moments of enjoyment when we achieve objectives. Now there is more tension, more worry."

VCF meet Atletico Madrid and could break up for international week away from the dropzne.

Baraja added: "Obviously everything that is positive from tomorrow's game will take us there. We have to be prepared for any situation. There are many clashes between teams near the bottom.

"The most important thing for us is to focus on each game. Tomorrow we play Atletico Madrid, which will be important. We will try to do things well, be competitive and have the chance to score. We want to pick up enough points to get out of this situation."
