Luis Enrique: “I feel very proud of my time as coach, although I made many mistakes”

“I have a special attraction for England, I would like to go to work there”

MADRID, 29 Mar. (EUROPA PRESS) –

The Spanish coach Luis Enrique Martínez acknowledged this Wednesday that he felt “very proud” of his time in charge of the Spanish team’s bench, although he acknowledged that he made “many mistakes”, at the same time that he confessed that he had not seen any of the two matches of the national team in the qualifying phase for the Eurocup and spoke of his “attraction” to coach in the Premier League.

“There are vermin and vultures taking advantage of their second glory, I don’t care. I feel very proud of my time as coach. I made many mistakes. I’m not interested in debates, they are free, made by people with a lack of knowledge and information brutal”, said the technician during an interview with the SER Asturias chain, collected by Europa Press.

The coach also confessed that he has not followed the team since he left office after the World Cup. “I haven’t seen either of the two games, he caught me in South Africa. You realize that when you’re not there, things are different. And they have to be different, each one has to follow his path,” he said.

In this sense, the Asturian recognized that since his departure from the national team he has stopped reading the Spanish press and social networks. “Another thing I’ve done since the World Cup and the Cape Epic ended is that I don’t use social networks. I don’t look at the Spanish press or social networks. I only read the English press,” he said.

“When you are the coach, you dominate all the information, much more than journalists or fans. You have to make decisions and accept the results. Based on the results, you will have one deal or another. I have this very assimilated, no It keeps me awake. I know the things I have to do and how I have to do them,” he added.

However, the technician positively valued his time on Twitch during the World Cup in Qatar, although he assured that he will not return to streaming. “Thanks to the streaming sessions during the World Cup, which was a bomb that exploded at that time, both players and I were able to receive the love of the fans. What the media say is one thing and reality is another, and the streamings served to bring players and fans closer together. It was a very positive experiment,” he acknowledged.

“Twitch was an experiment that came out the way it came out and it was very positive. I don’t know if I’ll be back, I don’t think so. I like more to enjoy these moments when you’re not part of today. I really enjoy being a coach, but I also enjoy my life outside of football. I don’t know when I will go back to training, it will depend on whether I have interesting offers. But I enjoy my two lives”, he asserted.

Asked about his return to the bench, the former coach spoke of his taste for the Premier League and the interest shown by various teams in hiring his services. “I have a special attraction for England, I would like to go to England to work. But I am not going to deceive you, I am not going to go to any team. I would like to go to a team that can do important things. So, I do not have many illusions But that doesn’t mean that I won’t train in Spain”, he highlighted.

“I haven’t had any offer at the team level to date, but I do know of the interest of any team. But I don’t rule out coaching any team. I don’t think it’s the profile of a coach for a team like Brazil. It hasn’t given me called nobody from Brazil. You know that the media goes so fast that a rumor becomes news. I love quality players, I always choose them. But I don’t know if my style is the best for a team of that level “, he concluded.
