Dani Carvajal talked to the media in the mixed zone after the match between Real Madrid and Manchester City.

Improvement compared to the game against Roma: "The team are finding their form more and more. The way we feel, what the gaffer is asking for, his instructions; we're getting on top of it and the team are happy. In the first match against Roma we were a little off our game because of the trip. We were better today, and I think you could see that."

First choice: "I think that the gaffer is giving everyone a go. Today he placed his trust in me to start and Danilo will start on another day. We're both trying to do our very best and we need to do our bit for the team."

The backline: "He wants to pass on more things to us defenders. He wants the line of four to move in unison. It will make us better."

Battle for the right-back spot: "Danilo is a fantastic lad. He's a really nice guy and the club benefits from having him. There's a reason they signed him. For me it's an added motivation, a challenge. He is also one of the best full-backs in the world and that's the best motivation to keep improving from one day to the next."
