Will you maintain the same style of play demonstrated in the championship? “When we talk about identity, in reality, we want to do the same things against all opponents. Then, there are games in the Primeira Liga and in the Europa League where, at times, things go a little differently, and we have to adapt, because it’s not just about what we want to do, but also about what the opponent proposes as their game plan. One of the main characteristics the team must have is the ability to adapt to different scenarios. Not so much adapting the style, but rather to the moments of the game, knowing how to read and understand where there is superiority and what to do, ultimately creating the overall picture of how the game will be played. This is what we will have to do tomorrow, in a match that will be decided by moments, by the ability to control transitions. Nice is a team that will come to fight us with everything they have.”
FC Porto representation in the U-17 World Cup final: “It will be a great opportunity for them to gain valuable experience and to celebrate a very important title. It is remarkable for FC Porto to have five players there, who are regulars in the starting eleven. We are following their progress. Two of them have already trained with us. It is something that makes us happy. We are monitoring and supporting them.”
Nice exposed themselves to many opportunities against Marseille [5-1 home defeat]: “I appreciate that analysis, which goes beyond the goals, but says a lot about Marseille’s ability to capitalize on their chances and maximize every moment. For me, the result is a bit unfair, because the game was different. In the first half, it was much more balanced. Marseille deserved to win. Our focus is not to comment on the last game, but rather to analyze Nice. They are a team that has already achieved great results this season and, at any moment, whether in organization or individual quality, can change the game. We have to be very careful and approach the game with a lot of respect and the desire to give our fans a special night.”
