We have a small advantage and it is true that some opponents, such as Atlético or Barça, are somewhat further away. But not Sevilla, for example. LaLiga is a very complicated competition because you can never say that there is a match. easy, “he said.

Perhaps the midfielders who go from area to area are more classic, but Modric, Kroos and Casemiro have so much experience and so much football that they are extraordinary. They also happen to mix very well. When the three of them are together, no one can compare themselves to them, “he was sincere.
“I see it in the faces of the fans. These young people, like Camavinga, Valverde and others, have to know what they have in front of them, which are the ones we have mentioned before: Modric, Kroos and Casemiro. They are competing with the best in the world and they must evaluate and understand that in the future they will be the ones who play there, “he said about Camavinga and other players who will have to take over.
Asked about Vinicius, he assured that he has “fantastic” speed and talent. “I have never seen a player with his ability to overflow, to go one-on-one. But he still has the ability to improve, for example, in the game without the ball, in attacking spaces and in the shot, where he can progress”, specific.
He was also sincere when asked about the mistake in the Champions League draw, where they went from playing against Benfica to against PSG de Ramos. “It was unfortunate, a quite obvious mistake. But hey, it was a mistake and nothing more. Now we have to think about the crossing with PSG,” he said.
On the other hand, it will not ask for signings in winter. “No, this winter I am not going to ask for players. I am going to ask what everyone wants: that the pandemic ends and that we can live the future with health.
